The concert, Broadway at the Boat Basin: Riverside Park Fund's Annual Fundraising Gala, was held at the 79th Street Boat Basin.
O'Hara performed numbers from South Pacific, Light in the Piazza, Pajama Game and Sweet Smell of Success, as well as a selection of songs from her Wonder in the World album.
Founded in 1986 by a small group of community activists, Riverside Park Fund is now a nonprofit partner with both the city and the community in conserving, improving and beautifying Riverside Park's 330-plus acres – from 59th to 155th Street. The evening raised funds for park improvements.
