My neighborhood desperately needs additional supermarkets and for the past several years now there's been a huge influx of Asian citizens moving into the area. Whoever's responsible for constructing this Asian-centric supermarket is going to make a fortune

Eight Story Complex Including Big Asian Supermarket Proposed for 38th Avenue in Dutch Kills

The development is expected to be eight stories tall and go up on 38th Avenue between 30th Street and Old Ridge Road. The top six floors would be for apartments, while the bottom two floors–totaling 12,000 square feet– to be set aside for an Asian supermarket.

Transit Mix Concrete

It is also called dry batched concrete because all the basic ingredients including water are charged directly into the truck mixer. The mixer drum is revolved fast at charging speed during the loading of the material and after that it continues rotating at a normal agitating speed

Red fire alarm boxes (usually they're red), also known as manual call points or break-glass call points, are small boxes mounted on walls that contain buttons or levers to manually trigger the fire alarm. They were typically installed on street corners in New York City before the availability of telephones and allowed people to notify the fire department of a fire. Many of these boxes have been in the streets for over a century.

The boxes are cylinder-like and have an inside compartment for calling the fire department. Some of the older models incorporate art, history, and American invention and engineering. For example, the ornate V.F. (Valentine Fendrich) models from 1913, 1921, and 1931 exhibit Beaux Arts meets Art Nouveau vine-like lacework, topped by a torch.

John S. Colgan, a Woodside resident and volunteer, has restored historic cast-iron fire alarm box pedestals for over a decade. He is nicknamed the "Fire Alarm Box Guy".

I noticed that crawler drill from a block away and was shocked as there used to be a nice house on that corner. Astoria is certainly in a state of flux and the unending building boom has enveloped the entire neighborhood.

Twice per weekday I walk past this small outcrop of earth along Skillman Avenue and the Sunnyside Train Yard and it's just a little something that gives me so much pleasure, as each of the seasons are contained within this one small triangular island that's sandwiched between the intersection of Skillman & 43rd Avenues in Long Island City, Queens, NYC

The Greenstreets program converts paved, vacant traffic islands, and medians into green spaces filled with trees, shrubs, and groundcover in an effort to capture stormwater.

The program is a part of the NYC Green Infrastructure Plan. All funding for Greenstreet construction under this plan is administered by the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).
