The Filth of Forest Hills Being Ignored
Forest Hiils Skid Row with homeless men & sidewalks filled with litter/garbage becoming major eyesore
Thanks for joining me on this filthy journey on Queens Blvd (between
Union Turnpike & 78th Ave) in Forest Hills in Queens, where a mere few blocks from the garbage strewn,
homeless hang-out of Skid Row are multi million dollar homes in the
gated community of Forest Hills Garden. and just a block away is the
prestigious K-12 Kew Forest School. So then why is this section of
Queens Blvd allowed to continue to look like skid row with constant
garbage dumping, litter and several homeless men bothering people every
single day. Of course having a homeless shelter a few blocks away in Kew
Gardens in the Comfort Inn does not help the situation, in fact, this
skid row is helped immensely by this failed policy of one of the worst
Mayors in New York history. DeBlasio’s legacy will be the destruction of
good communities and bad communities to get even worse, while all the
while he poses as some progressive liberal, though his administration
has been questionable and the homeless population has increased greatly under
his so-called leadership, while good neighborhoods like Forest Hills/Kew Gardens are being a dumping ground for homeless shelter hotels with no supportive services or security allowing mentally ill and drug addicted single men to roam our community with abandonment.
Speaking of so-called leadership, what are the elected officials
of Forest Hills going to do about this mess here in Forest Hills on
SKID ROW. You know Forest Hills folks like Queens Borough
President Melinda Katz and the stan by and do nothing city
councilmember, Karen Koslowitz.
How about Community Board #6 folks, where are you on this:

Ignoring the this NEW skid row, will only see the problem exacerbate. Time for action is NOW before more deterioration happens.
