Downstate policies coming downstate to roost................
When is the next civic meeting?????
The Senator needs to do more to use his influence to stop this. He has been in office a long time because voters have trusted him to work for them. It is time he does what he was elected to do, represent us. We don’t want it, find a way to stop it. FYI: Nine Dot has agreed to meet with me on FaceTime. What I would like is for elected representatives to back me when I do.
We knew they would not move it by asking! So now how do we stop them?
This is terrible news. It is so dangerous to have this near a school and a residential area ! Is there anything that can stop it?
They bought the property legally. They have the attitude they can do whatever they want with it. Is it right? Of course not! But it will be next to impossible to stop them with Mamdani and Hochul and the spineless Schumer running things. Very sad. Our little area of Queens is being ruined by corrupt politicians who care nothing about the people who voted them in. Very sad. Moving is no answer because there is no where to move in this country anymore where this doesn't happen. I admire everyone who has the fight in them to continue to oppose this and I hope you win because I am trapped here due to age, illness and financial situation. What a way to wind it up.

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.From the civic mailbox: "DOT does nothing to alleviate the countless accidents at Woodhaven Blvd and Eliot by cars going through red lights but they have no problem putting a mobile speed camera on Eliot facing Woodhaven Blvd. Light's been out for over a day but no traffic agents. Attached is vehicle that takes the speed camera pictures. Hopefully you can let people know. Of course people shouldn't be speeding either."
What is wrong about giving speeding tickets in front of a school? Are you people for real
In the old days, the RA nuns would beat you with a ruler if they caught you speeding!
lol suuure that person thinks people “shouldn’t be speeding either,” they were probably speeding while they typed that
Flatten out the tires lol
Surround the van trust me he will leave.
Several times since November, I have waited at the red light on Eliot ave at that intersection and witnessed people on Woodhaven blvd that are running through the light when my light turns green, and I had the permission to pass. The vehicles on Woodhaven blvd either ignore the light, can’t see the light, or maybe the timing is off? There should be a pause. I have seen this a few times, I believe that might contribute to the accidents. In any case, I recommend waiting a few seconds after the light turns green at that intersection on Eliot ave.
Call in suspicious vehicle near a school
My R7 picks that up, no problem
Dont know about rest of but at least once a day I see a car run a light. Of course those on two wheels never stop for a light
I called 311 yesterday at 7am to report the light being out the operator told me " lots of lights are out in Queens and Brklyn"
I used to repair the speed camera vans. They rake in thousands a day
the light at the intersection of Eliot Ave and Woodhaven Blvd was out yesterday causing havoc and dangerous situations. There is no reason why a couple of cops at Dunkin Donuts or Middle Village Bagels couldn't go over there and direct traffic and help keep things safe.
Follow the money. NYC wants money not safety.
DOT truck hogging up parking spaces everywhere
Why don't we have more police pulling over wreckless drivers instead of relying on cameras. You take your life in your hands driving. No regard for the rules of the road anymore. Me, me me
DOT is useless. First thing they do is get breakfast
Money Grab 💰
Be careful out there.

Did the mayor pos require people snatching and committing crime? Need to IDs
This is so sad, we should start walking around with mini blow torches in our hand. I’m not joking. It’s pathetic. What goes on
A Black Guy??? What a Shocker !!!
This is a low life crime .The catch and release no bail is not working.
Nine Dot didn't apply for DOB permits for the project on 69 Place until less than a month ago, and their contact information is right on their application - which was partially disapproved on 2/12/2026. a810-bisweb.nyc.gov/bisweb/JobsQueryByLocationServlet?requestid=1&allbin=4862982
I worked on that same floor, same building when MTA was there in the 90's
So you can see more on DOB Now. Just put in Queens, block is 3025, and lot is 34. On Friday, 2/27, literally the day after rally, city approved “Architectural and Structural work for the installation of proposed concrete pads and foundation work. No change to use, occupancy, or egress.” Obviously the city nor Ninedot care what community thinks and are pushing on🤷🏻♂️
How is NYU involved in this 🤔? That building is owned by NYU, it's part of their campus. How is 370 Jay St. this person/company address?? I have questions 🤓🧐🧐
What is the purpose of this post?
do we need to make a visit to his home like we did with Patel and banks?
