Spot-On East Side is a volunteer group of neighbors helping to keep our streets clean and cared for.
Join usWe're a group of Upper East Side neighbors who are willing to show up on a few mornings (or evenings), pick up litter, and get to know the people who live and work around us. No experience needed — just an interest in our neighborhood and an hour or two to spare.
Morning or evening walks. Supplies provided. Coffee or bubble tea after.
Adopting street tree pits — planting, mulching, and watering to green our blocks.
Working with NYC Parks and local partners on longer-term streetscape improvements.
Our focus is on these thirty blocks — a walkable, residential stretch of the Upper East Side that we're committed to making cleaner and greener, block by block.
Whether you want to join a cleanup, help shape what this becomes, or just find out more — we'd love to hear from you. Even a simple “count me in” is enough to get started.
