Astoria School Open Streets Begin September 10

NYC DOT's notification-stage list includes a full school-related street closure for the Young Women's Leadership School of Astoria beginning September 10. The listed limits are Newtown Avenue from Crescent Street to 23 Street and 23 Street from Newtown Avenue to Astoria Boulevard. The closure is intended for school activity, so drivers, deliveries, pedestrians, and families using the surrounding blocks should watch for posted restrictions and allow extra travel time. The project remains in the notification stage on the city's current list.
