City crews have their work cut out for them today. Most main streets appear to be in pretty good shape. But, even before yesterday’s storm, the sidewalk along Seward Park (on East Broadway) was an icy mess. In spite of numerous calls to 311, this stretch has gone un-shoveled. Lo-Down reader Linda Jones of the Friends of Seward Park and Community Board 3, sent us this photo today.
UPDATE 2:24PM: We understand Parks Department workers are clearing the sidewalk right now. Community Board 3 has been in contact with city officials throughout the day on this particular issue.
I’d like to thank Susan Stetzer for her rapid response. Shortly after she contacted the Parks Department, action was taken.
