The Resident Assoc. of The Two Bridges Waterfront Tower on South St/Rutgers Slip., NYC. Safe, Clean, Affordable, Resilient and Responsible Housing. We Live Here

[twobridgestower @twobridgestower]

City guidance for Two Bridges has been unclear. We adapted the City’s public viewing map to highlight the local FROZEN ZONE (residents only), no-viewing areas and street closures.
Key point: Two Bridges closures are listed as 3PM–12AM+. Residents should carry ID/proof of address.

Haven't seen the #GoodYearBlimp over NYC in a while

[twobridgestower @twobridgestower]

Nice #rainbow. Pretty sure we also saw a dual tornado in Brooklyn.

[twobridgestower @twobridgestower]

@wnbcdesk Ok

[twobridgestower @twobridgestower]

Heavy flooding again at Rutgers and South St. Avoid area.

[twobridgestower @twobridgestower]

Is this normal/scheduled work on the #ManhattanBridge? @NYC_DOT @NYCWater?

[twobridgestower @twobridgestower]

Video-
Hit the Brooklyn Bridge, then drifted towards the Manhattan Bridge.

A massive pirate ship just hit the Brooklyn Bridge

[twobridgestower @twobridgestower]

Apparently, one of the masts on the tall ship CUAUHTÉMOC reportedly broke while attempting to pass under the Manhattan Bridge. Massive emergency response underway amid reports of possible passengers in the water. The East River is already congested with party boats.

Impact on current projects?
"One of the task force’s recommendations...is to split the city up into districts. Property owners in each area...“shoreline protection districts,” would be charged a fee for ongoing operations and maintenance of projects in their local area.."

New York City is exploring ways to support its $46 billion flood resiliency plan without federal money, as the Trump effect makes funding even more precarious https://t.co/QcSbruEbQS

NYC half marathon @nyrr #UnitedNYCHalf Let's get this road race back to South St next year so that people can cheer on the runners!

[twobridgestower @twobridgestower]

Big changes for Sunday's @nyrr #UnitedNYCHalf marathon-no Manhattan Bridge this year, cutting out the cultural route through Chinatown & Two Bridges. No easy viewing and cheering spots for locals. This should return next year and beyond.

@NYCHousing @NYCHA How can Section 8 households who don't live in NYCHA get more info?

The future of flood protection is here!

This week our @nycddc showed off our brand-new flood gates that will protect hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers from extreme floodwaters. See them in action here:

Very interesting story on why the FDR is painted "almost purple". @SHoPArchitects says it was only supposed to be the columns, not the entire structure!

@FDNY We've repeatedly warned construction crews on South Street in Two Bridges about the dangers, yet they continue to COVER fire hydrants with cones just to park their cars. This reckless behavior puts lives at risk. @NYPD7Pct should crack down before it's too late. @NYPDPBMS

[twobridgestower @twobridgestower]

@AMGraceLee @NYSDEC The @MTA is rushing to declare congestion pricing an overwhelming success after just a few days—while ignoring the actual facts. Traffic and pollution aren’t improving along the FDR; in fact, they’re worse than before! Mitigations are needed now!
#CongestionPricing

[twobridgestower @twobridgestower]

Unfortunately, traffic & pollution along the FDR in the Lower East Side continue to worsen
Until we effectively reduce traffic & pollution in these sensitive areas, congestion pricing will continue to fail #environmentaljustice areas like the Lower East Side @bfurnas @errollouis

[twobridgestower @twobridgestower]

Everyone's talking about how #CongestionPricing will cut traffic and pollution—BUT in the Environmental Justice community of Two Bridges, we’re seeing the exact opposite: more traffic, more pollution with no planned mitigations.
@MTA @GovKathyHochul @BrianKavanaghNY @AMGraceLee

The battle for Two Bridges conitinues. Residents of our block and the waterfront area are steadfast in our continuing fight to preserve the heart of our neighborhood.

Madison Realty Capital filed to foreclose on Joe Chetrit’s Two Bridges development site, where he plans a 1,300-unit apartment complex.
