What is STEEM Park?


STEEM Park is a pop-up summer garden designed and funded exclusively through Steemit.com a social media website that rewards impactful content with digital currency (called STEEM). This garden within Herbert Von King Park represents an entirely new way to empower community projects and celebrate special places within our own neighborhood.

  • When? : STEEM Park opens July 16th, 2017
  • Where? : Herbert Von King Park in Brooklyn, New York.

Grand Opening - Sunday July, 16th


It's the final countdown... we ( @hansikhouse & @voronoi ) are nearing the end of fabrication and wanted to share a few sneak peaks of the process... Here are just a few images of the STEEM Park signage that will showcase our bench/planter sponsors!

STEEM Park opens July 16th 2017!

Good For Community, Good for Steemit


This new neighborhood hotspot in the heart of Brooklyn will act as a colorful and dynamic billboard for the Steemit community. We @hitheryon believe that this physical design project is an important and exciting proof of concept for STEEM and Steemit. We want to build something physical, lasting and impactful with cryptocurrency. Tens of thousands of people will visit Steemit Park this summer. Our team @hitheryon will host Steemit workshops and events for the purpose of onboarding community members and activists to the Steemit platform (this includes park visitors, park representatives, volunteers, local residents and more!)

Upvotes and donations will translate directly to funding for furniture, events, park maintenance, beautification and restoration for a neighborhood in need. This project is about discovering new ways of using STEEM and Steemit for social good!

Thank you - and Booster on!

We couldn't have done this without the support of Steemians like yourself! This has been a huge team effort. Thank you !

Great idea, love parks so I would support this idea anyway but add in the advertisement for steemit and I love it. Great job guys, I will definitely drop in next time I am in New York

Thanks so much @fiveboringgames! Very kind of you. Definitely swing by next time you're in town :)

cool idea

Love parks, please come to Vancouver 🇨🇦

Love that idea! :D

so awesome. I'll stop by sometime

We'd love to have you!

Awesome guys! Have some of mine.

Cheers, thanks @bulkygangsta :D

I'll be there! Can't wait to meet you. What time is good to come by on the 16th?

We'll be there from 11:00am on into the afternoon!

Please share with your friends, family, designers interested in blockchain, and anyone you can think of! =)

See you all on Sunday!

Have a wonderful day on Sunday. Enjoy the benefits of being on steemit.

Super cool! Too bad I am not in NYC :/

We need few more steemparks in different countries...

Amen to that! Let's make more with STEEM!

Right on, what a great idea to bring together the community.

Haha! Thanks @geomagna!

..love it!.. hope it s ok, if i ll use it?...thank you..

How much money was raised by upvotes alone among all the posts ?

Great question @transisto...!

Here's our spreadsheet, below. Through upvotes and post-rewards alone (so far) we've made 2,400 SBD and 1,906 STEEM. Through donations we collected an additional 2,928 SBD and 63 STEEM. We'll be publishing all of this data next week to be transparent (it's also an exciting testimate to our online community!) The Steemit Inc. grant gave us 10,000 USD that was critical for the film / documentary we're commissioning in addition to the Steemit meetups and other programs this summer.

If you have any questions we'll be happy to answer. We want to be super transparent throughout this process and assure Steemians that their upvotes are going towards a good cause!

Excellent post. What a great idea!!! I wish someday we could have a park like this in every city. Any chance of developing one of those in Miami?

I'd say that it's very likely that there will be a STEEM Park 2...!

That's amazing. can't wait to see.
👍

Stay tuned ;)

This is amazing!

Thank you!

STEEM ON! :D

Cheers, thanks for your support!

looks great I can't wait to see it in person.

great idea

thank you for your guideline

It may not appear good but I have just a sincere request that if you have many Steem Dollars in your account, it will be great if you can transfer a few to me. I will give it back to you after I earn some money. A few Steem Dollars may not be a big thing to you, but it can pay a part of my expenses. So, please Sir. https://steemit.com/expenses/@daniel2416/need-some-money-urgently-to-pay-expenses-for-college-please-help

very cool, headed over now to check it out

Beautifully photo

Yeh, it just start! I'm sure will be many steem parks💪💪💪

How far is this from Dumbo? I work just off the York St F stop.

Nice Post ...And Good Information Too

Nice idea keep working =)

Awesome guys! No one going to stop. All the Best

Wow. Great idea.

Wow! It's an incredible idea. We hope that community wil be more big. Thanks for share.

Great idea! this is really a great idea

good

I will be sure to visit next year on my once a year trip to NYC!

I work in brooklyn! good work guys!

Fantastic! New to Steemit and see the possibilities for creatives! Super!

this is really beautiful. good job! :)

This is incredible! Do you have any plans to showcase how to lead projects like this in local (and smaller) communities?

This is such a fantastic project!

Is it too far-fetched to imagine that these pop-up Steem Parks will eventually make their way to all the major cities around the world? My vision is for it to become a landmark where open-minded individuals come for friendly banter and community-driven charity projects.

The possibilities.. Great job!

All right, North Carolina Steemians... this is awesome; let's get one down South! #teamcharlotte

That's great. I think this is a good idea for my family and friends. We gonna be there live and direct with so much fun and excitement.
Thanks so much to the steemit community for this brilliant idea.
