BRONX · 18 addresses · 2 precincts
Living on Throgs Neck Expressway in the Bronx, specifically at the address 18, offers a unique blend of challenges and conveniences. The most prominent issue is the inconsistent and often inadequate street lighting, with a staggering 50 complaints registered, primarily revolving around street light outages. Residents have had to cope with 33 instances of non-functioning lights, 12 knocked-down lampposts, and multiple lights out simultaneously. The damaged infrastructure also extends to lamppost bases and fixture hangings, creating an unsafe and eerie environment, especially during nighttime.
Despite the lighting issues, the neighborhood is relatively peaceful, with no reported felonies, misdemeanors, or violations in recent times. This sense of security is further enhanced by the proximity to well-maintained streets like Adee Drive and Bicentennial Veteran Park, which boast an 'A' grade. However, the constant roar of traffic from the Throgs Neck Expressway and the occasional noise from nearby Throgs Neck Boulevard, which has a 'F' grade, can be a nuisance. Additionally, although not explicitly mentioned in the complaints, the potential for blocked fire hydrants due to parking issues, a common problem in NYC, is a concern that residents may face.
