A great question! We've had experience working with NYC Parks for a mix of art installations and other programs in the past. This helped us understand the hoops that needed jumping through. @hansikhouse connected with the Herbert von King Park conservancy leader to pitch the idea of STEEM Park a couple of months back. From there we filed for permitting with the NYC Parks Department in order to get permission.

It's always a mix of getting permission regionally (NYC Parks Dept.) and locally (Park Conservancy)... every public space is different!
