Anyone know how to report illegal Amazon parking?
This douche is double parked, blocking an open legal parking spot. Not unloading, just idleling. When I asked him to move so I can park he motioned as if he was doing something and just continued to idle. A spot opened up behind me and I pulled in but this jerk is continuing to idle, blocking others from parking. I'm just curious if anyone's ever dealt with this and what they've done. I called 311 but don't have an hour to sit on the line.

MTA rolls out new subway cars on D line, giving Bronx daily access to modern trains - Gothamist
Via Gothamist, July 1, 2026
MTA officials on Wednesday announced modern subway cars will start rolling on the D line, replacing breakdown-prone trains that date back to the 1980s.
The new cars — called R211s — have more standing room, wider doors and more modern digital displays than their 20th-century predecessors. They're also equipped with security cameras and electronic signal technology that can eventually help speed up service.
The MTA rolled out the R211s on the B line last year. That expansion allowed the modern cars to service the Bronx for the first time — but only on weekdays, because the B doesn’t run on weekends. By adding them to the D line, New Yorkers can ride the new cars from Norwood to Coney Island and back every day of the week.
“Riders tell us in surveys that they love the designs and the extra space of these 211s,” said MTA Chair Janno Lieber. “We love the fact that they’re so much less prone to breakdowns, almost 300,000 miles that they are running between breakdowns, which is double the rest of our fleet.”
Lieber cast the arrival of the new cars as the latest in a spate of triumphs for the city, including the Knicks' recent championship win.
“Has there ever been a better time to be a New Yorker?” he quipped.
The cars are replacing the R68s, which Lieber noted debuted on the subways in 1986 “when the Mets had that amazing comeback in the World Series where we rocked the Red Sox’s world.”
Since 2018, the MTA has ordered 1,988 modern train cars — including the R211s — for the subway’s lettered lines from the manufacturer Kawasaki at a cost of $6.75 billion. The company faced repeated delays in delivering the new train sets.
In addition to the D line, the R211s are running on the A, B, C and G lines, the Rockaway Shuttle, and the Staten Island Railway. The MTA also plans to deploy modern cars on the N, R and W lines.
The MTA earlier this year announced it would buy at least 1,140 new subway cars to replace old trains on the system’s numbered lines.

City Worker struggling- advice pls
Hey guys!
I’ve been debating whether to post here or not. I feel so embarrassed lol. I work for the nyc city morgue. Our salary is definitely not the best at all. I feel embarrassed when I ask to view places and they ask for my income /: but I still try. My credit is great. I can and do have someone who would be my guarantor. I’ve applied to NYCHA, HPD re rentals as well, and housing connect. StreetEasy has some decent priced apartments but gone so quick. I would move in with my bf but we are in a tough spot right now, and I kinda wanna be independent. However, that’s not looking like it’s possible. I’ll be honest, I make $46k. Trash for nyc. I check Craigslist, Facebook, StreetEasy, Zillow, and word of mouth really. I have a steady job. If I do OT my check is pretty good for two weeks. I have good savings as well. But I’m just at a loss. I feel discouraged. I live with my bf and his family. Basically in a cramped apartment with no space for my things at all and live in a suitcase for my job. If anyone knows of anything, I would really appreciate it. A studio is perfectly fine. In queens, Brooklyn, I’ll even take the Bronx even though the commute will be tough to my queens job. I’ve rented during grad school with no job. Had a roommate who was pretty bad. Terrible experience but I guess open to it too. Budget is about 1500-1600 is the most /: any words of encouragement, advice, brokers, I’ll take anything! Help a girl out. Thank you 🫶🏼

SINGLE MOM AND PRE-K TEACHER FACING EVICTION
Hello, I am a single mother of a 3 year old. We have recently faced some medical issues and hardships which caused me to fall behind on rent and bills dies to missing so much time from work (I am a school Pre-K teacher. I hate that my daughter losing the only home she knows is now an incredibly possibility we are facing. I look at her face every night and feel so ashamed that I am failing her. I am not one to beg, I have worked since I was young. However, this situation I am in seems impossible and as the days go by I feel like we are running out of time. Our final court date is coming up, July 13, and if my rent is not paid we will be forced out and have nowhere to go. I am asking for any help you are able to give and promise that as soon as I am back on my feet I will pay it forward times 10! Thank you in advance.

BRONX- HELP BRING CHARLEY HOME
🚨🚨🚨Charley is STILL missing. If you can help put up posters in the Bronx, please text Amy at +1 (212) 380-7986.
Medium/large (40lbs) black dog last seen in Morris Park on 6/25. Very skiddish. DO NOT CHASE.
Hello, My dog Charley ran off from me this morning because he got spooked by a passerby. He’s 4 years old. I just got him 2 weeks ago from a rescue called hearts and bones. He has already had such a hard life and I just want him home in his cozy bed :( I last saw him on Morris Park Ave and Bogart Ave but he was seen on the campus of Bronx Behavioral Center. That’s where have been and still are walking around searching for him. He is very shy and skiddish so he will run if you approach him too quickly. He likes cheese and pepperoni. He is wearing a light blue collar with his name and my phone number on it. If you see him please help him come home. I am absolutely devastated and I miss him. - Amy

Lost Dog 6/25
Hi everyone. My sister lost her dog earlier today. I attached some photos and a general location of where he last was. She lives in the Pelham Parkway area near Lydia Ave. He's quiet but probably frightened and jumpy at the moment. She's only had him a few weeks so I don't know if the familiarity of the area is there but we're hoping he goes back. He's chipped and has a collar w his name and the phone number. If anyone sees him or thinks they do please let us know. Any advise or tips on how to handle this situation is also appreciated. Thank you all 🙏

Petition to Expand Coverage for infants 0-3 years old in NYC
Gaps in access to basic needs can quickly turn into bigger challenges for families.
Which is why Healthix, a nonprofit health information exchange, is advancing a policy effort across New York City and Long Island to improve access to essential infant care supplies like diapers and wipes for young children ages 0–3 in Medicaid-covered households.
This is in correlation with data and community insight showing that when families don’t have consistent access to these basics, it can lead to preventable health issues and even emergency care. But beyond the data, this reflects something deeper that many caregivers already understand: how quickly one unmet need can affect a child’s health and a family’s stability and health.
As parents, caregivers, or people who advocate for families, you understand how essential reliable access to basic caregiving supplies is. Collective voices help show that this is not a niche issue, but a broader one that affects communities and systems of care.
This kind of policy effort is especially important right now, as pressures are increasing. With SNAP benefit changes putting tens of thousands of New York City residents at risk of losing assistance, and broader Medicaid funding reductions are being considered at the federal level. For many families, these challenges do not exist in isolation. They build on each other. Expanding access to something as foundational as diapers is one step toward easing that overall burden.
We are asking for your support in helping move this forward. If you’re able, please consider signing and sharing the petition to fellow NYers and LIers. Your voice can help strengthen this effort and bring more attention to an issue that directly impacts families and the people and organizations who support them.
We would truly appreciate your participation, and your help in sharing this with other parents, caregivers, and organizations whose work is connected to maternal and child health.
If any questions, I am happy to give my contact directly.
Thank you for your time and efforts towards making medical care accessible to all!
