Tonight @NYCParks and @NYC_DOT will listen to your greenway/bike lane requests for Eastern Queens. What will you be telling @mitchell_silver and Polly Trottenberg's teams?

We'll add the best ideas to our website too (but make sure tell them tonight).

Jane Jacobs after being interrogated for falsified communist affiliations,

“I believe in control from below and support from above”

How much has gov support changed since 1940’s?

Please fight this from happening.
This is a shame for this to fail and lose this facility for a parking garage

The is gross incompetence by @NYCParks We are 40 years removed from Robert Moses and its amazing we still witness the same tactics removing park land for a parking lot.
Astoria Park under the triborough has a beautiful tract dedicated to the public. This should be no different

@urbanresidue @ndhapple Disagree. Put some respect on Caro, man dedicated a decade to write this book. Utter nonsense what you said

[Mike_Murphy @Murphy_Astorian]

@urbanresidue @ndhapple Institutional racism and the effect all city governments would have on these races would be another 1K pager with Moses and many others included

[Mike_Murphy @Murphy_Astorian]

@urbanresidue @ndhapple When you talk about Moses and institutional racism its all there. Paints the picture clearly about unequal equity in these matters. Robert Moses clearing out homes in impoverished areas wasnt institutional racism, it was an attack on impoverished, uneducated people of all races

[Mike_Murphy @Murphy_Astorian]

@urbanresidue @ndhapple Caro writes about the title 1 slum clearance program in great detail where moses was siphoning money from these projects taking advantage of the poor

Thinking about the treasures in upstate NY. See you in 16 hours #NewYork #upstate #hudsonvalley #Catskills #anthonysnose

311 is not the solution. There is clear inefficiency in job duty + jurisdiction with parks dept, Con ed as a private utility. Work together and solve this ASAP. Submit a plan to each community in need of these fixes and get this resolved. Enough is enough #astoria #nyc #blackout

[Mike_Murphy @Murphy_Astorian]

@ConEdison @NYCParks @NYCMayorsOffice @NYCMayor @DRichards13 What Id like to see is a cross-functional solution on 1) Pruning dangerous branches 2) removing overheard power lines 3) contingency plans for storms. This is is unacceptable from all of you to let this linger for YEARS

We’re in throw of summer with heat advisory in effect. Hopefully crew finishes tomorrow. Food has spoiled, spent close to 100$ on ice for cooler. Why is this taking so long? @NYCMayorsOffice @NYCMayor @NYCParks @ConEdison #astoria #ConEdison #NYC

[Mike_Murphy @Murphy_Astorian]

Day 7: Still no power. We’ve seen many @ConEdison representatives for assessments, who individually haven’t communicated to each other. Crew came today, didn’t have enough power cables and couldn’t finish in time. I live on a block with many seniors, 1 lives on oxygen tank

Day 5 going into Day 6 w/o power. @ConEdison said 95% would be back by Sunday, not here though. This is becoming a sick joke and pure lack of leadership from city and now private institutions. Disappointed to say the least. #astoria #Blackout #ConEdison
