Padre Plaza Success Garden
![Gemeindegarten: Häufig auf öffentlichem oder vormals verlassenem Land gepflanzt. Gemeindegärten werden durch freiwillige Helfer, die Gemüse und Blumen anbauen, gepflegt, stärken hierbei die Beziehung zur Natur und Zueinander. Hierbei kann es sich um umzäunte und verschlossene Gärten handeln oder welche, die vor der Bebauung bedroht sind. Jedoch stehen sie im Allgemeinen für alle Beteiligten offen, erhöhen die Lebensqualität in der Gemeinde und verbessern zugleich die Luft- und Bodenqualität. Neben dem aktiven Lernen bieten sie ebenfalls Lebensraum für Vögel und Insekten. Gemeindegarten](https://www.opengreenmap.org/sites/default/files/taxonomy_image/category_pictures_77.gif)
Übersicht
Padre Plaza honors Father Roger Giglio (1943-1990), founder of St. Benedict the Moor Community Center. A native of Woburn, Massachusetts, Father Giglio was ordained in 1970 and served as the director of the Christian Formation Retreat Center in Andover, Massachusetts. In 1974, he moved to New York to work as a chaplain at Lincoln Hospital in the Bronx. He left that position in 1985 to focus on the problems of alcoholism and drug addiction, establishing St. Benedict Center “to enable homeless men and women and children in the South Bronx to live fuller lives and to restore to them the dignity of productive citizens.” Father Giglio’s untimely death from cancer at the age of 47 was a great loss to the community, but St. Benedict continues to implement his vision.
