We are pleased to announce that Council Member has scheduled an online forum to discuss flooding in our district for Thursday, November 17, 6-8pm. There will be representatives from DEP (Environmental Protection: sewers & stuff) and OEM (Emergency Management: when there's a big problem that DEP can't/hasn't handled...). PLEASE email your questions to [email protected]. They will be moderating the chat for questions, but are looking for questions in advance, so they can have the info we're looking for up front.

It’s a beautiful day at Ennis Playground. Our friends are enjoying the new playground.

We are still advocating for a new bicycle and pedestrian bridge at 5th street to cross over the Gowanus Canal!

We value your thoughts. Should he be demanding a new crossing to better handle the expected increase in people with a new Rezoning?

What design would you like to see?

9 years ago today, tornado downed 9 trees in Ennis Playground

On this day in 2010, strong thunderstorms and a tornado hit Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island. While uncommon, tornadoes occasionally occur in New York City, and can occur with little or no warning.
