Thanks to Luizzi's recently completed DRI work at 2nd & Warren, 3 of the 4 city-owned street lamps were moved to the bump-outs (or "plazas," as DPW Superintendent Rob Perry calls them), and thus, out of the way of pedestrian traffic. The lamp on the northeast corner remained unmoved on the sidewalk in the same spot where it has always been in the way. And there it shall remain. Has anyone at City Hall offered an explanation for this failed opportunity to move it off of the sidewalk and onto the bump-out plaza a few feet away? HA!
 |
| This street lamp was moved to an area that had been, in pre-DRI times, a parking space. (Do you know how quickly that trash can fills up with packaging waste from the bodega?) |
 |
| Notice how this street lamp does not line up with the one in the background. This lamp was moved from its original location, the other one was not. |
 |
| On the new "plaza" and out of the way of all pedestrians. |
 |
| Remember to move over a bit or you will regret it! |
 |
| Squeezed by a street lamp still in the way ON THE SIDEWALK, not moved to the "plaza." |
 |
| Why isn't this street lamp on the bump-out plaza? |
