Those areas have been there for years. There are trash cans around the park, but these spots are where groups/parties can put their bagged garbage away. One party alone would fill up a can. Pickup trucks & utility vehicles are always driving around picking up bags. Of course, there probably will be a-wholes who would drop their household garbage there.

As long as it’s picked up everyday, I don’t see a problem

This area has been there for years and keeps the trash especially from parties in one place

When the bins are full, at least there's a corral for the bags! They have to put another sign for BAGGED garbage from children's parties, etc.

This has been there as long as I can remember. During the summer when people are having their park parties. It’s where they told us to put our trash bags when I had my daughters birthday party there back in like 21 or 22

I think they need lidded containers

Wouldn't surprise me if some walk there house trash over🀷‍♂️

I hope they mean in bags. Do they have cans there?

The Scottish and Japanese world up fans do a better job of cleaning up after a party than what we get at our park

There should be trash cans with covers in the park. We have to put our garbage in pails with attached covers.οΏΌ the New York City bins that we have to buy should be in the park too.

This has got to be the laziest excuse for a solution to trash management. Just throw your stuff in this big pile! What are they thinking? How often does this pile of trash get removed?

Unbelievable

I've watched at night while walking my dogs. People bring their house hold trash into the park and dumping it into the park cans. Even when the cans are already full.

So let me get this straight if we don't have trash bins we get fines but the park can set up a fence and we just throw trash on the ground. Of course it's going to all get picked up every single piece and won't be flying around in the Wind New York City Department of Parks & Recreation is managed by incompetent nincompoops

What is this insanity?!?!

Wait am I seeing this correctly?! So you want the park goers to place their trash on the floor? What about trash bins?! Unbelievable!!!

Please..who voted for this. How about more trash bins. They're making us buy special trash cans..the city needs to get better trash cans.

New dump yard. Can I bring home renovation demo here

Stupid people running this city and the parks

How stupid are people, not loose trash

Call Mta make a complaint they have a team that can come out and power wash the graffiti off. As far as the refuse . A refuse truck if it’s Mta will pick that up before end of day .

Could be NYCT trash from the offices adjacent to the tracks

Contact Greater Ridgewood Restoration Corporation Will clean graffiti for free

It was just a matter of time. Welcome to the hood πŸ˜”

Does anybody have pictures of the old station there?

Call Phil Wong….his office can coordinate the clean up

Ridgewood restoration or ACE will remove the graffiti

Used to be such a nice area

Graffiti is also temporary and can be washed off, why isn't that trash in a dumpster Bin

there should be cameras to record the graffiti artists

Just discuss

Living in middle village 35+ years off Eliot is not the same! All has changed. Time to move

Reach out to Wongs office.

Why are those bags not in containers?

Middle Village was just about the last decent place to live in Queens. Now its destroyed too. And its no better anywhere else. Very sad. Im old. I remember how it was 50 and 60 years ago. Young people don't care. I've lived too long.

Mandummys third world living ,with πŸͺ³ roaches

Have they finally fixed the door? It was broke every week.

Hear ya

Should have severe punishment for graffiti

Why should middle Village be any different like every other Neighbourhood

One can’t be maintained but sure - let’s add more.

The abandoned stores there don’t help either.

The trash and garbage, graffiti and overall seediness of the area that was prominent throughout the gang and drug infested ghettos of Eric Adams’s Brooklyn has now migrated to Queens.

Yet they want to add another station.

If you had garbage piled up like this infront of your house you would get a ticket..

Honestly, why can’t the city council vote to put a bike park in the small park across from the handball courts?

ok i’m so sorry but it’s just kids on pedal bikes hanging out on the part of the track where no one is in i 100% understanding you guys not wanting the e-bikes on the track i get that you have no argument from me on that but we have no where else to ride and if we were on the runing part of the track i would get that too but we aren’t we stay out of the way im speaking from the kids who are at juniper constantly we try and stay out the way because we are just like you guys trying to have fun and chill but you guys weren’t kids once? like you have to understand that we are kids too ive had full grown men get in my face threatening to beat the sh*t out of me isn’t that sad you guys are full grown adults talking about sending people to come beat us up or damage our property i pay for all my bikes and it’s kind of sad that you guys are acting like children. you guys need to grow up if you want change give us a place to ride where we won’t get hurt. if you say the street we get yelled and and hit. if you want change give us change

Why is it every time someone posts people doing the obviously wrong thing there are people who come up with excuses and defend them? Why not admit it’s wrong and come up with solutions?

There is a new law in NYC. “You must be at least 16 years old to ride an electric bike or electric scooter in New York State.”

Build them a track they can ride on.

Has anyone tried to just talk to the kids? I know they can be wise assess but maybe if it is explained why, it might help? Then let them know the park police are going to come and confiscate their bicycles.

At least they arent doing drugs? At least they are outside

They need a park where they can ride them. Also, helmets

The solution is to put up hurdles but the runners aren't going to like itπŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£

Reach out to the Guardian angels

I thought bikes were not allowed on the tracks

Pay a few 17 year-olds to "frequent" the track area:

Can the park ranger’s say anything to them ? Arnt there workers at juniper? Or can the cops be called to report it. Maybe they can show up when they are there and scare them a little 🀷🏽‍♀️

Oh nice. The motorbikes are multiplying!

What’s the park ranger doing about it?

Nothing will be done until someone gets hurt. Fact.

What’s bad?

Maybe some places dedicated to bicycles would help. Pump tracks or skate parks for example? Instead of that sorry excuse for a ramp park in forest park.

The signs are clearly posted & in this picture

Kids can’t get a break. Boomers are either criticizing them for being on their phones or for doing what kids have always done- hanging out with their friends.

were they arrested znd their bikes imponded as eveidence /

Oh yea i seen this , this is def bad

Lol u guys completely missed the joke πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ so dumb

New York City Department of Parks & Recreation

Parents..where are the parents?

Future doctor's and lawyers nothing to see πŸ‘€ here right . 🀣

It’s called Darwinism.

Wake up the parents who have no idea where their kids are!

Please contact council man Phil Wong about this he would be interested in knowing this

< 55 years riding subways. Never thought of getting on top of one 🀭 Sadly, though, I feel bad for the kids who succumb to peer pressure. Teach your kids to not be followers.

Bring back the Draft

Retarted

Let them die then

You need a license to get married. You need a license to drive s car or fly a plane. But any morons who can have sex can have kids so this is what you get!
