No Alternate Side Parking Today

Good morning, Douglaston.

Alternate side street parking has been cancelled for the day as the city removes snow from the city's streets. But parking meters regulations are still in effect for the day.

Make sure you read yesterday's story on former state Sen. Frank Padavan, who suffered a 'slight' stroke. The senator is currently recovering at New York Hospital Queens in Flushing, according to Queens County Republican leader Phil Ragusa.

This afternoon, we will post a follow-up on one of the neighborhood's key stories. Keep an eye out.

And drop by later this week for a story on a new exhibit at the National Art League.

Here are 5 Things You Need to Know Today:

1. Read our story about Padavan.

3. There is no alternate side parking today. But you have to pay the parking meters.

4. Stop by Northern Boulevard's Adria Hotel for The Taste of Bayside.
