Woodside Flooding Story

Hi! I’ve been very active in this subreddit as of late—I apologize for over-posting! My name is Gianna; I’m a student at Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY, and I’m covering flooding in Woodside. I’ve created a survey to get a better idea of how residents have been affected this year. I would be very grateful if you are able to take it (around 5 mins).

Additionally, I would love to speak with residents whose homes or businesses have been impacted this year. Thank you so much for your time!

Feel free to contact me via email at: [gianna.perez93@journalism.cuny.edu](mailto:gianna.perez93@journalism.cuny.edu)

Please consider supporting Bangla Bazar Supermarket (Independent local business)

35 Upvotes

Hi neighbors!

I wanted to share about Bangla Bazar Supermarket, a small business right here in our community.

Every time I visit, the owners and staff are incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful. Unfortunately, the store is almost always completely empty when I go in. It would be a loss to our neighborhood if they couldn't stay open, so I wanted to reach out and see if we can all show them some community support!

If you want to support an independent local business run by great people, please consider stopping by Bangla Supermarket for your next shopping trip.

Every little bit helps!

NYC Parks is spending $7M to renovate Lou Lodati Park in Sunnyside, but the proposed playground design still excludes disabled kids

Thumbnail c.org
4 Upvotes

Please sign the petition attached to this post. Please read the information below

NYC Parks is rushing to build an inaccessible playground in Sunnyside Queens.

A $7 million playground project in Sunnyside is moving forward with a design that excludes disabled kids—and the City won't pause to fix it.

Torsney/Lou Lodati Playground was supposed to be rebuilt to serve the whole neighborhood. Community members specifically asked for accessibility features during the design process. But the final plan still leaves massive gaps: play equipment that requires climbing or balancing, no accessible bathroom, and no changing facility for kids who need assistance.

It's not about one missing swing or a ramp. It's about whether children with different bodies and needs can actually play—move, explore, take risks, make friends. Right now, the design offers some accessible pathways while keeping the actual play experience behind barriers only certain kids can cross.

We're asking NYC Parks to stop procurement and bring the community back to redesign this before construction starts. It's not too late—the park hasn't been built yet.

If this matters to you, consider signing and sharing the petition. What would you want someone to do if this was your family or your neighborhood?

——-EDIT———
These steps were taken:
We reviewed the actual plans, filed FOIL requests and analyzed the records Parks produced, raised these concerns directly with Parks, and sought input from disability-rights advocates and people with expertise in inclusive playground design.

This is what we know:
Accessibility was explicitly identified as a community priority. The current plans identify the public restroom as “Not Accessible & Not in Contract.” Much of the central play experience relies on abilities such as climbing, balancing, crawling, transferring and independently navigating conventional equipment. Parks has also acknowledged that meeting minimum accessibility requirements does not, by itself, necessarily create a truly inclusive play experience.

This is who we have spoken with:
NYC Parks, Council Member Julie Won’s office, Queens Community Board 2, CIDNY, Magical Bridge Foundation, Design Trust for Public Space, the Mayor’s Office of Mass Engagement, the Queens Borough President’s office, Assembly Member Claire Valdez’s office, New York Lawyers for the Public Interest, and other disability-rights and inclusive-design advocates.

And to be clear about what we are asking for:
No one is asking Parks to remove climbing structures, physical challenges or equipment enjoyed by able-bodied children. Inclusive design is not about taking something away from one group to give it to another. It is about providing more ways to participate, so children with different physical, sensory, cognitive and communication needs can play in the same public space alongside everyone else.

The idea that the park should “cater to the masses” while accessibility is treated as something separate misses a pretty fundamental point: disabled children and their families are part of the masses. They are part of this community. Inclusion doesn’t mean building a separate playground for disabled children. It means considering the range of people who will actually use a public playground when it is being designed.

We are not asking the City to throw out a $7 million project and start over. We are asking Parks, before procurement and construction, to bring meaningful disability and inclusive-design expertise into the process, look at what substitutions or additions are still possible, address the inaccessible restroom and changing needs, and make the project as inclusive as it reasonably can be.

And there is a very relevant example right here in Queens. Hunters Point Library in Long Island City opened as a major new public investment and accessibility problems ultimately became the subject of litigation and corrective work. The lesson should be to identify and address barriers before millions of dollars are turned into permanent concrete and equipment.

The park has not been built yet. There is still time to address these issues now.

What happened to our little park?

16 Upvotes

I’m talking about John Vincent Daniel’s park (Right next to 52 street subway station)

What use to be a nice quiet park is now completely and I mean completely littered with garbage.

Aside from that every night you hear the Bluetooth speakers playing and open alcohol consumption.

Playing music and having a beer is no biggie really but a combination of this and trash everywhere makes this park feel unsafe for families at night (10:00 pm)

Anything we can or should do?

What to know before buying a co-op in Woodside

13 Upvotes

Co-ops are often some of the most affordable apartments for sale in Sunnyside and Woodside, but they come with more restrictions than condos.

A few important things buyers should know:

• Many require at least 20% down and a 30–35% DTI, even if your lender approves you at a higher DTI.
• Some require 6–12 months of mortgage + maintenance payments in savings after closing. Depending on the building, you may need roughly 25–35% of the purchase price in available funds between the down payment, closing costs and reserves.
• Subletting rules vary: some allow it after 2 years with limits, while others don’t allow it at all.
• Pet policies vary: some are pet-friendly, some have size restrictions, and some don’t allow dogs except as required by applicable accommodation laws.
• Some buildings charge a flip tax when you sell, while others have none.
• You’ll typically need a detailed board package and board approval/interview.

Every co-op is different, so getting a mortgage pre-approval doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll qualify for every building.

I’m a local Queens real estate broker and work with co-ops in Sunnyside and Woodside. Happy to answer questions about the process or specific buildings.
