It was so wonderful to celebrate w/ @JGHBID at the opening of a new street mural on Jerome Ave at E Gun Hill Rd yesterday!

This is a beautiful spot to have a slice of pizza or a coffee, and big thanks to Bronx-based artist @BigeyesWorld for bringing bright colors to Norwood!

[LaurAlvarez @BigeyesWorld]

This was an awesome project. Thank you!

[Council Member Eric Dinowitz @EricDinowitzNYC]

What a beautiful day to unveil the incredible work of @BigeyesWorld in #Norwood. This mural exemplifies the character and radiance of our neighborhood.

I am proud to support projects like these and to have a partner in @JGHBID, who continues to look out for the community.

[LaurAlvarez @BigeyesWorld]

Mural alert! It's up and it had been inaugurated!

[Jamaal T. Bailey @jamaaltbailey]

Incredible to be with @JGHBID in Norwood for the unveiling of a new asphalt art mural by Bronx artist @BigeyesWorld - a great addition to the space. Community-driven projects like this showcase the talent of our local artists and the beautiful vibrancy of our neighborhoods.

@Derrick_NYC D train. Crazy

[LaurAlvarez @BigeyesWorld]

And another morning waiting for 25 min and no trains show up at 161 Yankee Stadium to go to Manhattan to work. And when one does show up, it doesn't stop. @MTA @NYCMayor you are really messing up for all NewYorkers

[LaurAlvarez @BigeyesWorld]

@NYCTSubway @NYCMayor After 28 min waiting for the D this is what we are faced to go to work with @MTA #nosocialdistance @NYCMayor give the option to city workers to work from home now! @CityWorkers4NYC

[LaurAlvarez @BigeyesWorld]

@NYCTSubway B trains canceled, D trains coming every 25 min towards Manhattan. Trains are so crowded people can't get in. Prefect place to spread any disease. No way you are keeping nyc safe

[LaurAlvarez @BigeyesWorld]

@NYCMayor @MTA WTF. We are supposed to go to work with public transportation but the trains take over 30 min to arrive? Lines canceled... what a mess

[LaurAlvarez @BigeyesWorld]

@Shellymackbooks I just published a children's book of you are interested in that kind of literature! https://t.co/OyWj7frmAs

[LaurAlvarez @BigeyesWorld]

Thank you @cynthia4nyc I love that quote that Sarah and Selma proposed for the mural!

All the way uptown in the Northwest Bronx, @prisonculture’s words are now installed next to the neighborhood community fridge.

“everything worthwhile is done with other people / todo lo que vale la pena se hace con otras personas”

[LaurAlvarez @BigeyesWorld]

@NYCTSubway But in the meantime we all have to go to work and school. @NYCMayor you are not helping this city to get back with the crazy vaccination mandate.

[LaurAlvarez @BigeyesWorld]

@MTA rates are not going down but the trains are just getting worst. Waiting for 20 min at 161 Yankee stadium... what a shame
