Administrative History

The Bronx River Restoration (BXRR) was a non-profit, urban environmental planning and action organization. The objective of BXRR was the environmental unification of the Bronx River Corridor to achieve a regional urban park, combining good water quality, a green belt, and a linear system of community resources, while providing jobs to young people in the area. BXRR operated from 1974 until 2007 and was funded through various grants from institutions such as the National Heritage Trust and other publicly funded funding sources. The organization provided hands-on park and river conservation programs, environmental education programs in local Bronx schools, as well as other planning and development projects for the future of the river. Individuals particularly integral to the organization included Nancy Wallace, who was a member of the Board of Directors until 1983, when she then became the Executive Director until the organization’s end, and Ruth Anderberg, who served as Director for Programs starting in 1982. 

Notable programs included the Riverkeeper Program, which started in 1989 and involved school, youth, and other community groups in the collection of water quality data at sites along the Bronx River. Another was the Conservation Corps Program, a paid summer work program that recruited local youth populations, often from economically, educationally, or socially disadvantaged backgrounds, who would then learn basic employment skills, conduct environmental research, and remove litter from the river and its adjoining land. BXRR also held fundraising and volunteer events, such as the Bronx Riverfest, which featured live music, food and drink booths, tabling from community and environmental organizations, and other activities run by the Parks Department in 1996 and 1998.

The organization additionally developed preservation and development plans, which aimed to increase recreational opportunities through land acquisition while protecting and improving water quality and surrounding habitats for local wildlife. Another notable event in BXRR’s history was the creation of the Bronx River Restoration Environmental Arts Center in July 1980. The EAC offered a comprehensive program of ceramics, photography, silkscreen, arts and crafts, and various other classes to the West Farms community and the wider Bronx until its closing in 1983. 

As of March 2007, BXRR officially closed their bank account, as well as all their programs and offices.
