The senator, whose three-borough district includes the park, and Stuytown where O'Keefe lives with his wife and children, proclaimed that the honor was approbated by the State Senate and its Majority Leader because of O'Keefe's effective advocacy to open more green space in "one of the most starved for green space districts in the entire city" Gonzalez told the audience (in attendance for the day’s addition of 17 trees and six shrubs at the park) that she had recommended O'Keefe for the award in part because of his "incredible leadership. Kevin a fearless leader." O'Keefe successfully led a campaign that opened the city-owned garden to the public after decades of closure and continues to advocate for more publicly accessible open and green space for such places as locked MTA green space across the street from the garden, an Open Street next to the park and the largest undeveloped private parcel of land in Midtown Manhattan. On September 15 at a public hearing, O'Keefe addressed green space for the private lot during his opposition to a since-rejected casino bid for the site. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62214df4a018851f2f3e84f3/cf605296-97a1-46a6-b5c5-b945dc008076/Screenshot+2024-04-16+at+9.00.00%E2%80%AFPM.jpg St. Vartan Park Conservancy Leadership - April 13, 2024 On April 13, 2024, in the St. Vartan Park garden, United States Congressman Jerry Nadler (third from right) bestowed on Kevin a U.S. Congressional proclamation. After remarks, Representative Nadler presented a 400-word statement about Kevin that the congressman read into the Congressional Record two days earlier. Nadler's Congressional Record remarks begin, "Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the tremendous accomplishments of Kevin O'Keefe, a dedicated community leader in East Midtown Manhattan." The Congressional Record is the official record of the proceedings of the U.S. Congress. A list of O'Keefe achievements follow in the statement, including leading a campaign that opened the garden to all after decades of closure and for work that "has inspired many people to find a middle ground when talking with those with differing views." Also standing for the garden presentation were (from left) New York State Senator Kristen Gonzalez, New York Assembly Member Harvey Epstein,, New York City Council Member Keith Powers and New York State Assembly Member Alex Bores. A video of the presentation resides here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62214df4a018851f2f3e84f3/9e08128a-cf2e-4127-a5b2-c33cf48e15fe/two.jpg St. Vartan Park Conservancy Leadership On April 25, 2023, at the Samuel J.
