THE WEEK IN REVIEW
AL QUIÑONES PLAYGROUND
A promise fulfilled - We gathered to celebrate the renaming of Playground 52 to ‘Al Quiñones Playground’, honoring one of the Bronx’s greatest figures.
Future generations will now have the opportunity to learn more about this local champion of equality and Latino culture, inspiring them to follow his example by serving their own neighborhoods through public service.

METRO NORTH WALKTHROUGH
In preparation for the Metro North coming to the Bronx, I spearheaded a walkthrough with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority - MTA, Assembly Member Kenny Burgos, and Senator Luis R. Sepúlveda at Starlight Park.
We had a productive discussion about the installation timeline of the 2 new proposed rail lines and the maintenance space that would be needed for efficient operation.
