Nishath Jannath was crossing the street at 62nd Street and Roosevelt Avenue in Woodside around 11:55 p.m. when she was hit by the driver as they turned into the crosswalk.

Ocasio-Cortez emphasized the need to protect the community, stating, 'On behalf of my constituents and nearly 64,000 local residents impacted by this project, I am requesting that your administration reject any plans to expand the Cross Bronx Expressway beyond its current footprint.'

"It's sad, really," said Schwartz's lawyer John Scola. "It's just someone who's trying to do his job, and then, because he didn't basically bow down to the egos of Chell and Kaz, his whole life gets uprooted and he has to endure years of hardship, because these people essentially have a bruised ego."

Jannath Nishath was crossing 62nd St. in Woodside when she was struck by the driver of a Royal Waste Services garbage truck turning off Roosevelt Ave. about 11:55 p.m. Sunday.

Both technologies involve cameras mounted on poles designed to read license plates, and at a moment when Americans are rightly more alert to the dangers of unchecked surveillance, it makes sense that people would approach any new camera with skepticism. But similarity at the surface is not sameness in design. These systems are built for different purposes, governed by different statutes, and constrained by different guardrails.

As commissioner, Gregory will carry forward the transformative projects he helped build, from waste containerization and curbside composting to commercial waste reform... I look forward to working with Gregory to keep pushing forward to build a cleaner, healthier and more just city for all New Yorkers.

Because so many American cities are so heavily car-dependent, most U.S. residents have no choice but to pony up the cash and drive anyway. Indeed, even when gas prices climbed above $5 a gallon in 2022, driving did not plummet; a Time magazine analysis at the time found that 'the only time that fuel consumption really took a hit in the last 23 years was during the pandemic.'

The embeds below are from TikTok (with one from YouTube because TikTok never approved it for some reason), but if you're not a fan of the platform., here's all the links to find Streetsblog videos: And if you can't get enough Streetsblog videos, Streetsblog NYC has a TikTok Channel and Streetfilms is archived on YouTube. Tuesday Damien made a short, satirical, video to promote his AMA on the StreetSmart podcast. No idea why TikTok sent this one to jail.

"California's policies have slowed American commerce long enough," Rep. Randy Weber (R-Texas) said in a post on the social media platform X announcing the bill.

When it's dreary outside, I usually hunker down and do household chores - running the dishwasher, catching up on laundry, maybe even taking a long shower and shaving my legs. These days, though, I take the opposite approach: I never do chores that require water use when it's raining outside. That's because I recently learned that my city, Milwaukee, has a shared sewer system - which means rainwater runoff, domestic sewage, and industrial wastewater collect in the same pipes.

That means car owners will be required to move their cars out of the filth, dirt and grime - some might call it snow - to allow street sweepers to finally clean the road and vacuum up refuse. Alternate side parking has been suspended since Jan. 26, when New York City's biggest snowstorm in at least a decade left more than a foot of snow piled on the streets, sidewalks, parks and plazas.

DOT's rules brought those establishments under the umbrella of the city's "long-term" and "short-term" concession regulations. The short-term concessions allow outdoor vendors to operate a max of 29 days out of the year. The long-term concession takes about a year to get set up. That would appear to leave restaurateurs on a handful of open streets shit-out-of-luck, including the so-called Dimes Square on Canal Street, which had planned to operate for 183 days this year.
