Hot and gritty, summer in the city.
In our neighborhood, we have to be ever vigilant regarding personal and property safety. Skinker DeBaliviere has been successful when neighbors worked together for selfprotection and neighborhood enhancement.
We need to rebuild the ties that have frayed.
This is not the place for individualism. Rather we need community effort.
I commend the work of Molly Mulcahy and Christina McGroarty in revitalizing block units.
It is a daunting task. But, they are making progress. Cameras or increased lighting cannot hurt the quest for safety. Watchful eyes count too.
