It is finally official.  The home of the NY’s AIDS memorial will be at St Vincent’s Triangle in what will be named as The New York City AIDS Memorial Park, and it is scheduled to be fully opened by by late this summer according to POZ magazine.

“The New York City AIDS Memorial Park at St. Vincent’s Triangle stands at the crossroads of the richly historical West Village,” said New York City parks commissioner Mitchell Silver in a statement. “Here, we honor and celebrate St. Vincent’s Hospital’s more than 150 years of service to our city, as well as the countless New Yorkers impacted by AIDS: those we have lost, those who live with HIV/AIDS, and those who continue to battle against fear and ignorance.”
