Unfortunately our local Councilman invited people on probation from prison to clean the neighborhood. We also have two high schools nearby. Tough kids who thieve try all doors. We all have to toughen up now. Wouldn’t want to get back from lunch break to walk in on an intruder.

Crime is down isn’t it Mr. DumBlasio. LIC seems to be seeing more and more burglaries.

Gentrification. When you see a neighborhood where people are paying at least $3000 per month for a studio, it’s assumed that’s where the money is. The divide between the rich and poor is so great now- didn’t DeBlahsio promise to fix that? He’s only helped to make it worse.

Op-ed | Public growth in Long Island City must yield public good in the One LIC Plan

Sep. 16, 2025 By State Senator Kristen Gonzalez

Long Island City is where I live—it’s my home. That’s why for the past few years, I’ve taken part in public meetings, provided testimony and joined community conversations around the OneLIC rezoning. From the beginning, I’ve insisted that building housing is necessary amid our city and state’s housing crisis; however, to support working New Yorkers, new development should be affordable and intentionally benefit our communities.
