Prospect Park Alliance is a nonprofit organization based at 95 Prospect Park West, Brooklyn, New York 11215. Founded in 1987, the Alliance was created to restore and maintain Prospect Park after a period of deterioration and decline. Prospect Park, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux in the mid-nineteenth century, is a national landmark and an international model for urban parks that attracts more than 10 million visits annually. The Alliance helps fund the park's operating budget and employs roughly 75% of the staff who care for the park and engage surrounding communities. It has engaged in partnerships with New York City agencies, including the New York City Economic Development Corporation and NYC Parks, to advance overhaul projects and related initiatives.
