Image above: 1100 Bergen Community garden, owned by its block association for decades, was at risk of having tax debt sold to an investor-backed trust when an administrator failed to file the annual property tax exemption renewal. We worked with gardeners and Mohen & Segal LLP to transfer the land to Brooklyn Queens Land Trust to protect it from foreclosure and auction to the highest bidder.
