Why your neighborhood is full of Queens Crap
"The difference between dishonest and honest graft: for dishonest graft one worked solely for one's own interests, while for honest graft one pursued the interests of one's party, one's state, and one's personal interests all together." - George Washington Plunkitt

You're right.
guess i'm the only one who lives/frequents that area but i thank you for posting and i thank you for caring about the state of our borough.
thanks for posting and thanks for caring about the state of our borough. i guess there's too much badness taking over for anyone else to comment, but this area is where i grew up, where my family still lives and where i go every week, so it matters to me. thanks again.
Yeah I thought it was sad that more people cared about me not taking the Dunkin Donuts sign off the tree than about this arboricide/overdevelopment story, but that's why Queens is the way it is. It's the people who don't give a crap that allow it to fester this way.
right - they either don't give a crap at all, or it's too late when they decide to. so depressing.
