Constant sirens, around Jamaica ave, Cypress hills st

Anyone notice, i think starting last year, the constant ambulance, fire sirens. Just all day sometimes. There's no way there's that many emergencies. I would hate if i were closer to Jamaica avenue.

new building proposal on Highland Blvd looks pretty huge?

I just saw this: https://www.brownstoner.com/development/cypress-hills-monastery-341-highland-boulevard-rezoning/

If anyone is involved in community input on this, can you please post here so more people can get involved? I moved here from an overdeveloped shitshow of a neighborhood and I am not eager to have that experience for the community in Cypress Hills. Fulton and Atlantic have plenty of potential development sites and the needed increase of housing should focus on those areas with a lot of community consideration to provide needed affordable housing. The historic mansions on Highland should be protected. Something could be built on that site of the monastery but it needs to be in response to community needs.
