1. Register Your Stoop
Add your stoop to the official #SuperStoop Map! Registering your stoop on the map helps create a connected, walkable experience and lets participants know where to find sales, giveaways, food and drinks, and other fun. We are only registering locations that fall within the Park Slope boundaries (please see the registration page to see the boundaries).
2. Spread the Word
Let your building, block, and friends know you’re participating and invite them to join. Share our event flyer (link at top of this page), share the news on social, and tag @park_slope_civic_council with #SuperStoop to help build neighborhood buzz.
3. Set Up Your Stoop (Without Blocking Sidewalks)
On the day of the event, participants are invited set out items between 11 AM and 4 PM. Whether you’re selling, giving things away for free, or just joining in the fun, please be mindful to:
- Keep sidewalks clear and passable for pedestrians, strollers, and wheelchairs.
- Only use your stoop, front walkway, or the area directly in front of your building, unless you have received permission for using other spaces. Seek approval from your building if required. If you have signed up for a ‘temporary stoop’, we will do our best to provide you with an authorized space (no guarantees).
- Don’t block building or parking entrances.
- Do not use street parking spots.
- Keep the area clean. Consider keeping a trashbag with you to hold waste, especially if you are selling food and/or drink
4. Clean Up Responsibly
Park Slope #SuperStoop is about celebrating community, not creating clutter. Thank you for helping keep the neighborhood clean, welcoming, and fun for everyone. At the end of the day, please take time to clean up:
- Remove all remaining items from public areas, including any waste.
- Don’t leave goods or waste on sidewalks, tree pits, or stoops overnight.
- Donate what you can or dispose of remaining items using NYC’s sanitation guidelines or donation centers.
5. Other Considerations
If you are selling food and/or drink, please be mindful of food preferences and allergens. Provide descriptions or be able to explain the ingredients.
The PSCC will be taking photographs during the event for use on its website and promotional materials.
Thanks for helping keep this a fun and friendly neighborhood event!

常见问题 (如需翻译成其他语言,请使用您的互联网浏览器提供的翻译服务
Who can participate?
Any Park Slope (north and south) resident, business, or school. Whether you live in a brownstone, apartment, co-op, or walk-up, you’re welcome. This is a community-wide effort. See the boundaries on the Registration form (link at top of page) for reference.
What time does the event run?
The event is from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM
Do I have to register to take part?
Registration is strongly encouraged. Registered stoops/buildings will be included on the digital map so neighbors and visitors can easily find you. Registration link is at the top of this page.
Note: When you register, you will be automatically signed up for the PSCC newsletter. You are welcome to opt out any time.
Can kids participate?
Yes. Under parental supervision, children under 18 years are encouraged to join in—whether by selling lemonade, making friendship bracelets, or offering their own giveaways.
What can I sell or give away?
Anything that is clean, functional and of adequate quality. As we support sustainable practices, we encourage participants to give away or sell secondhand items and ensure that they are of adequate quality and in good shape. Consider what you would be willing to buy from someone else!
We also encourage participants to clearly label any possible allergens in food and drink items.
Popular items include:
- Books, records, clothes, and toys
- Small furniture and home goods
- Baked goods, handmade items, or crafts
- Plants and cuttings gardening items
- We also encourage participants to clearly label any possible allergens in food and drink items.
Are there any rules or requirements?
- Keep sidewalks accessible and clear for pedestrians
- Do not block building entrances, parking areas, or fire escapes
- No amplified sound, generators, or commercial vending setups
- Clean up your stoop and sidewalk by 5:00 PM
- No illegal items for sale
Can I leave my stoop between 11 AM and 4 PM to go enjoy other stoops?
Of course! We do hope that registered stoops are actively monitored for at least a few hours during this window, but you are not obligated to stay by your stoop the entire time. An option is to partner up with someone else so that you can take turns enjoying the #SuperStoop.
Do I need a permit?
No permit is needed. As long as you have permission to use your own stoop, or the sidewalk immediately in front of your building, or an assigned ‘temp stoop’, you’re covered. Please see our disclaimer here:
I don’t have a stoop. Can I still participate?
Yes. We’re working to pair interested residents with neighbors or businesses who are open to sharing space. Make sure to indicate your need for a ‘temp stoop’ when you register. We cannot guarantee you a spot, and so also encourage you to collaborate with a neighbor or friend who has a stoop to share.
How can local businesses get involved?
Businesses are encouraged to offer #SuperStoop discounts or sidewalk specials – be sure to register your business or company and indicate the discount or special promotion being offered so we know what you plan to offer.
Where can I find the map of participating stoops?
The map will be available here on the website after September 15th and posted on Instagram, and Facebook in the days leading up to the event. Everyone who registers will receive email updates, including about the possible rain date.
Who do I reach out to if I have questions?
