Two hundred and fifty dollars (you read it right, $250) gets you a beautiful, permanent, engraved stone monument in Tompkins Square Park. Here's your chance to tell someone you love them, celebrate a friend or family member, or just say something brilliant for everyone to read!!!

Have you ever noticed the hexagon-shaped pavers in and around Tompkins Square Park? They're serviceable; they do the job; but they're not particularly attractive.

Purchasers can engrave a personal message on the stone. There is room for up to 50 characters. This includes letters, spaces and punctuation. Inscriptions may be up to 6 lines with the following limitations: the first line may contain no more than 11 characters; second line no more than 12; third line no more than 14; fourth line no more than 14; fifth line no more than 12, and sixth line no more than 11.

To get your creative juices flowing, check out at the Temperance Fountain what your neighbors have written.

Final installation is subject to approval by The East Village Parks Conservancy and The Parks & Recreation Department.

You can print this page out in landscape mode (horizontal), fill in your inscription and mail it with your check.
