National Park for Stonewall

NPCA and our many partner organizations are working together to establish our nation’s first lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender (LGBT) unit of the National Park System around Stonewall Inn in New York City.

The historic Stonewall Inn, Christopher Park and the surrounding streets in New York City’s Greenwich Village is where a weeklong uprising took place in June of 1969 helping to shape our country and the great changes sweeping across the nation for LGBT equality. We must continue to protect and preserve these places, urban and rural, natural and historic, that speak to and represent who we are as a nation. Together, let’s create a national park for Stonewall!
