Sidewalk Concern PLUS

The boardwalk in front of Crystal Point is slowly but surely buckling. It has been reported before and has been acknowledged but nothing is being done. Some bricks got dislodged but someone replaced the hole with new bricks. It's becoming a hazard and needs to be repaired.

Street level Public right-of-way Belgian block sidewalk is severely damaged, poorly constructed, large portions of the stones have sunk down and forms large puddles after the any precipitation - it takes over a week to evaporate. You have to hop and maneuver carefully to avoid muddy portions. The walkway should be power washed to remove construction debris and silt that has accumulated over the past ten years since it was reconstructed as part of required Historic Rehabilitation. The stone should be relaid and supported properly to maintain a level surface to walk on. The ADA ramp to the elevated ROW sidewalk is along this stretch of First Street. Current conditions as they are now make it very difficult to push any wheeled stroller, dolly or wheelchair to gain access to the elevated portion of sidewalk surrounding this building. The entrance to the office, artist studios and Nyack University student dormitories are accessed on First street side of the building where this walkway is located. This walkway, ADA ramps (as well as the staircases up), and elevated sidewalk are not private property it should be properly maintained by 150 Bay Street property owners. In addition to the pedestrian traffic to the dorms, commercial offices and studios space, there are four floors of rental apartments as well as active retail spaces surrounding the entire building. This needs to be repaired and rebuilt ASAP.

Dangerous. Caused my neighbor to fall onto the pavement and bike lane and hurt herself. Fix ASAP.
