šOur Little Free Library is open and full of books for everyone to enjoy! š. A huge thanks to Chuck Grimmett for building this beautiful library, Carla Rae Johnson for painting it, and Arne Paglia for letting us install it in the Hugo's alcove.

There are zero crosswalks or safe connections to Monument Park. @CityOfPeekskill.
Notice how other cities such as Tampa FL improve not only the park, but accessibility and walkability. This is what makes a city block inviting @peekskill_walks

Cities are realizing that design and engineering is the solution to reckless driving.
Like any community, the automotive enthusiast community has some factions and subsets that are more troublesome than others, and the latest battleground for automotive rabble rousers are street takeovers. Cities across the United States have faced weekly o.

High-speed chases through dense areas are incredibly dangerous for everyone!. We're glad @peekskillpolice terminated this pursuit when it entered city streets. Great jobs by the officers for their restraint and helping ensure more drivers and pedestrians weren't put in danger.
@peekskillpolice just terminated a car chase that ran through downtown Peekskill, onto Rte 9 north, back south on 9 to just south of the city line, where a lone white male driver apparently crashed on his own. Hereās the audio:

We're glad to see @AMDanaLevenberg's strong support for Congestion Pricing following the Gov's decision to kill it highlighted in this @StreetsPAC endorsement.
We're thrilled today to announce seven new endorsements of candidates running for the state legislature, two for the State Senate and five for the Assembly. They join 13 candidates whom we endorsed in June. Read all about them here:

Ugh hopefully this is one @fleekskill prediction that doesnāt pan out. @CityOfPeekskill @AMDanaLevenberg @SenatorHarckham.
Iāll bet $100 that @Walgreens will close its downtown Peekskill store the minute this new car-centric location on Route 202 across from BJās in Yorktown opens. They fought the @CityOfPeekskill for a property tax cut a couple of years agoā¦

We've reached out to PPD for info, but generally speaking this stretch has a ton of speeding and a history of crashes and desperately needs better design, maintenance and enforcement (this would be an idea place for speed cameras).

There was a crash this morning at Division and Howard involving a driver who lost control of their SUV and flipped over.

(Obviously lots of people regularly use the parks after dark despite the outdated & unnecessary law).
