Work on Paths and Lighting at Ridgewood Reservoir May Begin...

I have heard whispering that the NYC Department of Parks & Recreation (DPR) will be seeking approvals from Comptroller's Bill Thompson's office to begin work on improving perimeter fencing, public lighting and paths at the Ridgewood Reservoir...I feel this is a good thing...

But, there are also rumors that the DPR will be rolling out the same plans (ie: baseball fields, ziplines in the basins and watercraft in basin 2) for the Reservoir that were previously voted against by both Brooklyn Community Board 5 and Queens Community Board 5...This is a very bad thing...

The community has spoken out loud and clear that they want this valuable gem of green in the neighborhood to stay that way...
