New Speed Bump on Central Ave.

I’ve often complained about the speed at which vehicles travel on Central Ave. on the stretch between Lowry and Columbia Heights….

The new crossing at 36th is so far above grade that it has the effect of a giant speed bump.… Continue

Mr. Ashmore, you are a hypocrite

An open “letter to the editor” of the Northeaster Newspaper (Kerry Ashmore).

You ha… Continue
