 We are collecting signatures from Elmhurst residents in support of a co-naming of Justice Avenue and 52nd Avenue after Ptl. Frank Romanella who died in the line of duty. CB4 is requiring signatures from the 11373 zip code.
We would appreciate it if you would sign the petition and ask anyone else you know in the 11373 zip code to do the same. CB4 is requiring street addresses but they are not visible online, only the petition author can see them. https://www.petitions.net/co-name_justice_and_52nd_avenues_for_ptl_frank_romanella Thank you.

 FYI from Senator Gianaris:
GOVERNOR HOCHUL ANNOUNCES COMPLETION OF $17.8 MILLION PROJECT TO CONSTRUCT MASPETH PARK IN QUEENS Park Provides New Community Space and Recreational Amenities Adjacent to the Kosciuszko Bridge Photos of Maspeth Park Available Here Governor Kathy Hochul today announced the completion of a $17.8 million project to construct Maspeth Park, the first park to be built in the western portion of Maspeth in Queens. The park, completed on schedule, is located within walking distance from surrounding residential neighborhoods, including Sunnyside and West Maspeth. The park includes numerous benefits for visitors to enjoy, such as a recreational area comprised of game tables, picnic tables, a basketball court, and adult fitness equipment. A new world-class skate plaza, designed for all skill levels, has also been constructed. The plaza provides professional sports lighting so that events can be held after dark. The basketball court will also serve as a multi-purpose venue with nighttime lighting and bleacher seating. Events will be held throughout the year and run by New York City Department of Parks and Recreation. The park was built on nearly one acre of underdeveloped land that was previously used by the state as a staging area during the construction of the new Kosciuszko Bridge, which was completed in 2019. The park is located adjacent to the Kosciuszko Bridge at the intersection of 43rd Street and 54th Road. |
