Schools Will Be Closed on Nov. 12

Also, alternate side parking is suspended for Monday.

New York City schools will be closed on Nov. 12 as the city observes Veterans Day, according to the city's Department of Education.

Additionally, alternate side parking will be suspended on Monday for the holiday, but parking meters and other regulations remain in effect.

Alternate side parking is also cancelled for Tuesday in honor of Diwali, a Hindu celebration known as the "festival of lights."

For more information on schools, visit the DOE's website and take a look at the Department of Transportation's alternate side parking calendar.

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.
