During National Night Out, neighborhood residents can meet local police officers to learn best safety practices and enjoy free food and entertainment.
The Upper West Side is covered by two police precincts, the 20th and 24th precincts. Both precincts will be holding separate National Night Out celebrations.
The 20th precinct event will be held at Verdi Square Park from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.
