Monday was a great day for going out for a walk, running errands or just enjoying going coatless. Although mostly cloudy, the day was warm and, until late, rain free.
But after Tuesday’s transition, Wednesday is predicted to deliver snow after early showers. With a high above freezing, the snow will be wet and sloppy… and an unbelievable contrast from Monday.
Don’t put your winter coat away yet.

On June 17 and 18, HPD told the first meeting of the Roosevelt Island Steam Plant Demolition Community Advisory Group that smokestack demolition had no projected start date. Residents and the CAG would receive at least five business days’ advance notice once a date was set. Scaffolding around the stacks could not proceed until soil removal and backfill were complete and the area stabilized.
