Local Streets

From construction to closures, our local streets (including the BQE) are seemingly trapped in an improvement and fix phase.

​

Tourism

Who would have thought a moment on social media would cause such disarray? From illegal vending to crowd-control to subway and traffic safety, the influx of tourists has not been met with an equally tuned plan for the effects on everyday life.  

​

Quality of Life

Noise, garbage, crowding, safety and construction dust - to name a few issues- can feel overwhelming at times. BUT we also have a beautiful park, local wares, fun restaurants and bars and an awesome library.

​

Development

New buildings and area features are springing up quickly, stressing our infrastructure, halting traffic and effecting overall quality of life for residents.

​

York Street Station

The tremendous uptick in new residents, workers and tourists, has made York Street subway station a hazardous situation.
