Deskripsyon

From 135th Street north along Riverside Drive people routinely use the staircases and stairwells as toilets. The stench of urine and fecal material is thick in the air. There are few trash cans. People throw trash everywhere, and the park is fast becoming home to homeless drunks living in the woods. Park crews sit around not doing their jobs. No one seems to be in charge of them or this area, as bags of trash routinely sit for weeks without pick-up. The stairwells at W 148th Street and 152nd Streets are particularly foul and nothing short of a health issue. The police routinely drive by without ticketing barbequers knee deep in their own trash... I pay taxes in this City and wonder just what it would take to get this park cleaned up?
