We used to live on 73rd between 37th/35th aves. Great apartment, incredibly maintained BUT the traffic up the block, the hordes of people dropping garbage, double parking, trying to drive ( where do they buy their licenses?) honking horns, the buses and general bedlam caused us to come to one solution ----MOVE. We now live on 78th Street and it is like a totally different neighborhood. I suggest calling 311, Helen Sears and anyone else you can call to get some rules enforced...the ethnic mix is great in J Hts, but when all the accoutermentscome come with it - it becomes a nuisance to residents it needs to be regulated. Limit number of vendors, get police to give tickets for trash, parking and noise....
