The Juniper Berry
The Juniper Berry magazine has a rich tradition in the communities of Middle Village, Maspeth and Elmhurst. It was first published in 1938. The quarterly magazine is an all-volunteer effort and contains articles on crime prevention, neighborhood issues, meeting reports and notices, neighborhood history and photographs, guest articles, editorials and more.
Last night our board met with MTA planners regarding the IBX. They presented slides which provide unrealistic scenarios regarding how we get around, and touted benefits like having access to more pre-K. We aren't sure who is taking their kid on the subway to a pre-K in Brooklyn, but this is what they think we will find exciting.
For easier transfer connections to and from other modes of transit at certain IBX stations the MTA could add in movable walkways like they now have at the airports.
Even if it’s not as good as they still it’s still better than it is right now. Taking the bus between boros sucks
What a joke 😡
Can speak as loud and clear as we like, but they will jam it down our throats like every other brilliant change these transplants force upon our city.
The walk from the Roosevelt Ave stop to the IBX is not a 5 minute walk, someone already clocked it.
It’s nonsense run by activists. There is nothing activists love more than to out meaningless data points and use them in a misleading way. Almost no one travels in this direction. In reality it’s just a short cut to Manhattan for most, but it will bring unwanted development and strain in infrastructure not to mention connection a few nice areas at both ends to high crime areas in the middle. Two things will happen. Development will come which will increase prices which means increased rent and property taxes. It will also bring gentrification to those places as gentrification exists along rail corridors.
The IBX is useless if it doesnt go to Manhattan, which it could via the LIRR tracks that it cross over
Want till its in effect and people from Brooklyn discover juniper patk juniper park is already getting messed up it will be worse
And what about those of us without kids or grandkids? People have kids great, enjoy, be happy and healthy but its NOT MY PROBLEM! We need this train here like we need another homeless men's shelter or cannabis store. NYC is done
The MTA and DOT are out of touch with reality
Typical delusional bureaucrats who have drivers and don’t mingle with the common folk.
Ridiculous, plus preKs are over run with their own community children. This whole thing is about the city of yes and the city’s desire to drive us out of our neighborhood.
Finally!
Asil Assaidi, 22, was picked up by the warrants squad Thursday morning and is facing reckless driving and rioting charges for his role in Saturday’s dangerous car meetups in Middle Village, according to sources and the NYPD. He is from the Bronx.
Driver arrested in fiery car meetup in Queens: NYPD

QUEENS, N.Y. (PIX11) — A 22-year-old driver was arrested after a fiery car meetup wreaked havoc on a Queens neighborhood over the weekend, police said. Asil Assaidi, 22, was picked up by the …Bet he was the one with the Palestinian flag! 😡
The Bronx?? I'm shocked!
Nice now give him the Mets tickets and say it was only a plane to roast marshmallows
i dead called it i was like that car is not from here it wouldn’t have been wylin like that
The person arrested must have been taking a break from his Doctorate studies.
Good on the arrest but I trust the issue is far from resolved. I fear similar incidents will occur 🇺🇸
In b4 Mamdani announces a full pardon
The questions is what is the penelty if any
Amazing how quickly they made arrests. I’m guessing someone is up for reelection in that district.
Now let’s see what Melinda Katz does with this case!
Yeah, A message has to be sent on this one and all moving forward. Real jail time will put a stop to this.
Not good enough keep going
Public caning would end this BS quickly
Best and brightest
Is one of the charges Arson
Where is the next one ? I’d like to go and see it.
It’s a MIRACLE no one was killed.
A Muslim
Where is he really from 🤷🏼
Build drag strips n atv n utv parks
Any word from empty suit mamdummy
👏👏👏👏👏
Nobody is shocked he’s from the Bronx. I bet you the asian kid is from douglaston, little neck or Whitestone.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani his voters 👏👏👏👏👏👍
OBVIOUSLY ONLY WAY TO RECTIFY IS TO IMPOUND CARS SELL THEM ON OPEN MARKET AND FINE THE OWNERS $10,000 EACH $$$$$$$$$$$$$ MONEY TALKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wonder how soon this will be forgotten like the Malba incident was and NYPD will go back to being satisfied with their atrocious response to these events. This happens on a nightly basis almost throughout our city. If you think about it this event has no negative effect on NYPD CompStay report which is all the care about. Everything that actually happens is just crime perception if there’s no data recorded.
I think the charges should include committing a hate crime. To many in the Jewish community waving a Palestinian flag is the same as burning a cross.
Still Tryna find the 30 African Americans that was there
Deport them all
Charge them with Arson for sure.
Would have been nice to see that car crash and that disgusting flag get impaled where the digested curry goat exits! 🤣🤣🤣 #JUNIPERSTAYRED
These are the locations where you may drop of your unused prescription drugs for disposal.

Wait, how, illegals never commit crimes....right Mamdahhhnnii
They have been robbing these bodegas here in Maspeth for decades....
Wait, all this isn't possible. Our wonderful mayor keeps telling us that crime is down.....lol
Keep voting demoncrat and you reap what you sow.
