PALISADE AVE BRIDGE (RT-139) CLOSING FOR MANY MONTHS


FULL CLOSURE OF THE PALISADE AVENUE BRIDGE INTERSECTION IS ANTICIPATED ON OR ABOUT THURSDAY, DECEMBER 10, 2015.

The Palisade Avenue Bridge over the Route 139 lower roadway is planned for a full reconstruction.  Click here for the detour map.  The Sgt Anthony Park Neighborhood Association has formally requested that this work be delayed until Oakland Ave is re-opened but the NJDOT has not yet agreed to heed that request.

The closure will be discussed during  the Ward C Community meeting hosted by our Councilman Rich Boggiano on Monday, December 7th at 7pm. The meeting is being held at St. Joseph's Catholic Church in the basement. The church is located on Baldwin Ave between Pavonia and Magnolia Aves. Parking is available in the church lot which is accessed from Magnolia Ave.

TREES

On December 1st, the Jersey City Department of Parks and Forestry supervised the planting of four Japanese Zelkova trees in front of our park! Special thanks to Mark Redfield, Director of the Jersey City Department of Public Works, for beautifying our neighborhood. To read more go to our website: www.sgtanthonypark.com

Many of our members would like to have more trees planted in our neighborhood. To that end we have created a "tree map" which we will share with the JC DPW. Members are encouraged to record trees that are dead or tree pits that are empty on this map.

Please spend a moment filling in the trees in your local area.

Thank you to Anthony Henderson, Parks and Forestry Division and Ambioris and George from Scanlon Landscaping for their work.

JC SHOVELS


This week Jersey City launched JC Shovels, a new volunteer initiative that seeks to help low-income, home-owning seniors with snow removal.

We would like to help the DPW recruit as many volunteers as possible.
