CB 10 Voted Against Telecommunications High School Using Open Streets on 67th Street
Telecommunications High School put in an Open Streets Application for the full closure of 67th Street between 3rd and 4th Avenue for the hours of 7:45 am and 4:45 pm for the full year.
Many residents opposed this closure because the students can walk across the street from the school to Leif Ericson Park.
Community Board 10 voted to deny this application because:
a) Leif Ericson Park across the street from the school.
b) St. Nektarios Greek Orthodox Church Church is next to Telecommunications High School and people won’t be able to get to chuch. (Elderly residents are brought by car to the church.)
c) The Fire Department is nearby and uses 67th Street.
Twenty-five Community Board 10 members were against this Open Streets Program. Three people were opposed (they wanted the school to have use of the Open Streets Program.)
