Join us on Tuesday, June 2nd at 7 PM in front of 64-30 69th Place in Middle Village for a community rally regarding the proposed lithium-ion facility planned directly across from PS/IS 128 and next to homes, a daycare, an animal hospital, and a childrenβs funhouse.
This is an important issue for our neighborhood, and we encourage residents to come out and make their voices heard. Donβt sit this one out. Letβs get out there and show that our community is paying attention.
We regret to inform you that we need to cancel another concert.

Will it be another date?
Are these concerts going to be rescheduled for another date?

It’s not meant to beπ
Not sure itβs a good idea to establish a huge trash pile in the middle of the park
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 overπ€·βοΈ
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
Middle Village only has one subway station and this is what it looks like today. The trash is temporary, but the graffiti is a bit more permanent.
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 π
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
Graffiti is also temporary and can be washed off, why isn't that trash in a dumpster Bin
Used to be such a nice area
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?
Mandummys third world living ,with πͺ³ 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.
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.
Yet they want to add another station.
If you had garbage piled up like this infront of your house you would get a ticket..
Tonight's concert is cancelled. π§
July 21 concert rained out - The Juniper Park Civic Association
junipercivic.com
Due to the impending storm, JPCA and NYC Parks have decided to cancel tonight's White Wedding concert. We'll let you know if it will be rescheduled.Is there a rain date or are we just plum out of luck?
Rain date?? Rescheduled??
Will it be rescheduled?
the park usually makes rain dates for each concert that gets rained out. why hasn't the Parks department made one for White wedding and White wedding is one of my favorite bands. I'm extremely mad
Just another summer day in the park with bad kids doing destructive things.
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 itπ€£ππ€£
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 π€·π½βοΈ
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 ππππ so dumb
