Well on my block everyone's had their garbage out since Sunday and all they collected were the recyclables and Monday is our regular garbage day. Huge pilings of ruined rugs, furniture, etc. More bad communication and information and lack of services.

Mayor Deblasio is having press conference tomorrow morning at 6:30 am at 72-03 Penelope
