When visiting family in my old neighborhood I often walk by many newly vacant lots. Same old story. Some developers bought a property with a big house on it and tore it down. They started building something gigantic on it but did not bother to check on the zoning regulations and / or ran out of money. So on my mother-in- laws corner there is a corner property that has no home on it and is surrounded by plywood fencing.

I am talking bout
2820 Ave Z on the corner of E 29th Street in Sheepshead Bay. According to BlockShopper it was bought for $300,000.00 in May of 2009. My friends at Sheepshead Bites have been keeping track of it here, here and here
Yesterday when I walked by the sidewalk was the usual minefield of dog owner poop. But is was worse. There was a plastic bag of rotting meat. So rotting that it was overflowing with maggots. No, I am not going to zoom in or post a video. That is even to disgusting for me. (If you want discussing click
this, but it is really bad.)
So I walked the kids down the block to the MIL's house and doubled back to call 311. After 28 minutes mostly on hold I was able to file this
report. (If it is not clickable, look up
Service Request Number: C1-1-663840971)
Let's see how it goes. Maybe if they planed on building a Masque on this property the neighbors might complain.

ugh. I really hate it when people litter on the street. Mark and I patrol all the time when people fail to pick up their dog's poop. It happens all the time.
ReplyDeleteI don't quite understand it. But if you weren't brought up with someone telling you not to do it, I guess you're not sensitive to that stuff?
btw I think 311 generally works. We've used it with neighbors that play their music too loud.
