Catalytic converter thefts on the rise.

If you have a Prius, lock it up. My cat was stolen this week. Police said it’s been happening more often lately.

Free Educational Exhibit on Homelessness

RxHome is creating an interactive maze to show New Yorkers what it’s like to navigate homelessness in New York City. The Way Home illustrates the dysfunction and barriers that New Yorkers experiencing homelessness face as they seek help finding stable, affordable housing. The installation will help build empathy for New Yorkers experiencing homelessness and demonstrate how New York City’s elected leaders can solve this crisis.

The Way Home will be on display in Columbus Park in front of Brooklyn Borough Hall on October 29 and in Astor Place from November 3-7. We hope you all can join us! Please RSVP for October 29 here and for November 3-7 here!

Loud boom Sat 8/9PM?

Heard a succession of loud booms Saturday 10/2 sounded like gun shots but maybe car backfiring - police were at corner of 164th and Amsterdam. Anyone know what happened?

Please help spread the word in your communities/ neighborhood/ any other way you feel you can.

Parking rules?

Hey. I’m moving to 172nd between Broadway and Fort Washington and was wondering if anybody knew the parking rules? Like when you can’t park on a certain street? I forgot if it was Tuesday or Wednesday and I wanted the side I’m moving to be empty

Volunteers needed for at-risk sheltered at home during COVID-19 in Washington Heights

Covid Assist has received a request from an at-risk community member in Washington Heights who needs help with picking up groceries and would like an ongoing companion to chat with. They speak a little English, but they would be more comfortable with a volunteer who can speak Spanish.

We don't currently have any Spanish-speaking volunteers in the area. Is there anyone in/around the area who speaks Spanish and can help? We'd really love to make sure to they get set up with someone!

If so, you can sign up at www.CovidAssist.org. Please also feel free to share with others who may need help!

CovidAssist is a nationwide mutual aid organization that connects volunteers with neighbors who can’t leave their homes and need help with basic non-medical tasks such as shopping for groceries and supplies, or picking up medicine from the pharmacy. We use text messaging to make connections quickly and securely, and ensure that volunteers and neighbors keep a safe distance from each other.

Does anyone know what they are filming near Fort Tryon Park?

The trucks say NBCUniversal but I haven’t seen any specific show advertised. I thought all of the filming for In The Heights was finished but perhaps they are doing some revisions? Any thoughts?

Liven it Up

We need to get this community talking! We make up a large portion of Manhattan, and the area is constantly changing. But Gentrification seems to be affecting the area at a slower pace than the rest of Manhattan.

Community Gardens uptown

Are there any community gardens in the Heights or Inwood where someone can rent a plot for the summer? I want to start a new hobby. If not, are there any in Harlem or around the West Bronx?

Piano/voice lessons in Washington Heights

My name is Kevin! I’m a musician living in Washington Heights, and if you are looking for private lessons or tutoring in piano, singing, or music theory and composition, I would love to meet you!

I’ve been teaching for about ten years now, and performing in all kinds of groups (that’s me on piano in the pictures). I love classical music, jazz, rock, and musical theatre, and would be happy to teach any of these styles, or a combination. Also, I've been very lucky to travel extensively and teach and perform overseas, so I try to bring a multi-cultural perspective to everything I do.

♪ At your home or in my home studio at W. 181st and Broadway ♪ All ages and abilities welcome ♪ Children as well as adults ♪ Classical, Jazz, Pop/rock, and Musical Theatre

Send me a private message if you’re interested, and let’s set up a trial lesson!

Drug users near 169th?

Anyone notice an increase in the number of strung out users by 169th and Broadway? Usually near the entrance to the A.

I also just saw two groups of NYPD officers dealing with two separate incidents right by there, looked like they gave naloxone to both guys.
