Week in Review

Catch up on the stories that took place in Bayside this week.

It was a busy week for news in Bayside.

Northeast Queens's elected officials and community leaders said they were concerned that the site where the Bayside post office is proposed to be moved is inconvenient and, potentially, dangerous.

The city designates Auburndale for a "slow zone," but does not take Community Board 11's suggestions to create similar zones in Bayside and Douglas Manor.

And Patch readers passionately responded to a poll on whether they agreed with the United States Department of Agriculture's plan to remove and euthanize geese from the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Preserve as a means to prevent the birds from flying into planes.

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.
