Greenburg Photo du Jour: Jerzy Popieluszko Square

This afternoon as I was passing through J. Po. Square (as I call it), I finally had the pleasure of meeting the woman responsible for keeping the area around Mr. Popieluszko’s statue spic and span. Her name is Regina and today she and her husband were sweeping and bagging up leaves with a great sense of purpose; tomorrow morning at 10:30 a.m. there will be an event to celebrate the life (and tragic death) of the namesake of this park! Those of you who happen to be in the area— or are simply curious— should swing by and check it out!
