Week in Review

Catch up on the stories that took place in Bayside, Douglaston and Little Neck.

Hurricane Sandy still dominated much of this week’s news coverage as the city continued to clean up after the late October storm and local groups donated items to its victims.

Alley Pond Environmental Center postponed its annual Green Gala in the wake of the storm and a Great Neck man was arrested in a series of Little Neck burglaries.

And state Sen. Tony Avella, D-Bayside, announced that he was renewing his snow removal program for seniors this winter.

The local, fresh fruit and vegetable market was a worthwhile addition to Douglaston. Obviously, itRead More did not receive the support of the community, at least not enough to make it a successful venture. This is sad. Every Sunday, rain or shine, I would stop at the market and purchase something. My favorite was the bakery stand. Often, when I stopped in the afternoon I would get two FREE French breads with my purchase. Parking was never a problem. The vendors where friendly and very informative. It was a perfect setting for the picturesque nature of this community. Too bad it is not returning.

Unfortunately, according to the Douglas Manor Association, the fresh fruit and vegetable market willRead More NOT return this year. No specific reason was given other than this was at the initiative of the merchants or the market's organizers. And this..., just as we were beginning to enjoy the Long Island wines and the $34 per pound skirt steak, ordered two months in advance.
