It's go time for @CHPExpress!

This 1250 MW line running down the Hudson will deliver enough clean energy to power all of NYC's government operations as well as 20% of its electric load.

Incredible project, great execution, win-win across the board! 👏👏👏

Thank you to local artist wes.roundtree who helped gather supplies and direct volunteers. Also a big thank you to the @NYPD45Pct who helped keep the intersection clear and safe while we painted. #pride🌈

Happy Pride Month, City Island! We were pleased to sponsor this temporary crosswalk repainting on City Island Avenue and Centre Street. We are planning to paint a second crosswalk in the days ahead if folks are interested in volunteering.

Do you have an elderly or disabled neighbor in NYC?

Be a good neighbor and let them know about the free air conditioner program.

If they earn $3473 or less a month, NYC will cover the costs of an A/C. Remember…last summer we had 95 degree weather. Look out for them
