RALLY AGAINST INAPPROPRIATE DEVELOPMENT: Rain or Shine!!
When: Saturday, November 14th, 11 A.M.
Where: 30-88 36th Street (site of proposed demolition and new construction)
Who: Norwood Neighborhood Association, supported by Council Member Peter F. Vallone Jr.
Mayor Bloomberg says Quality of Life is getting better for most New Yorkers. In Astoria, with out of context over-development, residents face power shortages, over crowded schools, congestion, pollution, lack of green spaces and inadequate services such as mass transit, hospitals and policing. Norwood Gardens would like to see an adequate Quality of Life Plan!
Right now on 36th Street where outdated zoning from the 1960's is still in effect, out of context development is still going on - against the will of the community! This block busting may be legal but it's WRONG.
NNA would like to see a bill reintroduced into legislature which would put a moratorium on development such as 30-88 36th Street while zoning changes are under review.
