A beautiful mural in downtown #NewRochelle! It's called the #DancingQueen by #Vinie; it was installed in 2022.

A #raven feeds in #NewRochelle – not exactly what I expected to see heading home earlier today, but cool nonetheless!
#NewRochelle mayor Noam Bramson got back to me on the bird app regarding #TheLINC – looks like the ball is rolling on this project and 2023 will be the year things really get moving!
The project will transform a significant part of Memorial Highway – a stub stroad – into a linear park!
Here's my blog post from 2019 showing current conditions: https://www.nerdynel.me/2019/08/memhwylinc/

This is New Rochelle's mayor sharing a fantasy map his son made. It's honestly not bad! Also made mention of the NYW&B; had it survived, #NewRochelle would likely look very different today!

Here is a look at the new #AndersonPlaza in #NewRochelle near New Roc City. Construction is nearly complete!
A large chunk of this space was once a one-way road (Anderson Street) with street parking on both sides, resulting in narrow walking paths. This is a welcome improvement!
(Note: traffic would still be allowed, but significantly calmed. The road is designed to be closed for local events. More info here: https://newrochelleny.com/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=3098)
