E34th Street Repairs


Coming in Via Email

The 1700 block of East 34th street was surveyed yesterday by city workers. If homeowners were previously issued violations for bad/cracked/uneven sidewalks, and didn’t make the repairs, the city will now be making the repairs.

Curbs and sidewalks were marked with bright orange spray paint, denoting the areas that will be fixed within the next week or two.

Formal written notification of the work to be done was left in homeowners’ mailboxes.

If a homeowner had their sidewalk fixed but did not contact the city to remedy the violation, they must do so immediately so their address is taken off the violation list.

I am not sure if any other blocks have been assessed, but I just wanted to give the community a heads up on the matter.

Possible: Attempted Child Abduction in Marine Park

Coming in via email

On Monday evening, at around 7:00 PM, there was an attempted abduction of a child on East 35th Street and Avenue P. A man in a Silver pick-up truck asked a young boy playing outside in front of his house to come into the truck with him. The child ran into his house and the truck sped away.

Please urge your friends and neighbors to keep an eye on their children at all times.

Unfortunately, the family of this child has decided not to report this incident to the Police, so the NYPD has no official record of this occurring. Please pass along the information in this email and inform your respective memberships all the same. Thanks.

Belt Parkway Bike Path Closed

Sent in Via Email

I live in Marine Park and on nice weekends like to follow the Greenway bike path along the Belt towards Queens. The last time I went I found the path closed just pass Erskine Ave. between Crossbay Blvd. I have filled out a from on the parks dept. website asking about this and when it will reopen, but as of yet no response. Do you guys have any clues to when it may open again, or who I can contact to find out?
