Roosevelt Island Public Safety Report, January 2007-May 2007
Above is the Roosevelt Island Public Safety Report for the months of January-May 2007. The top chart lists what are called "incidents" by type, such as criminal mischief, harassment, graffiti etc., the middle chart lists those "incidents" by building location, Eastwood, Motorgate, Westview etc., and the bottom chart lists "incidents" by post location, Main Street, Seawall Walkway, Manhattan Park complex etc.
Click on each chart to be able to read information.
The report indicates that these statistics represent only those incidents reported. I do not know if that means reported to RIOC HQ, Public Safety, the NYPD or some combination. How do these numbers correlate with the general impression by residents of crime and public safety on Roosevelt Island?

The crime on RI is that ROOSEVELT ISLANDER runs this BLOG like he owns it. Stop acting like a Republican ROOSEVELT ISLANDER. This BLOG is for everyone not just you and your right wing anti speech friends. The next think you know this BLOG will have Rudy ( the wiretapper) for President ads on it.
KEEP THIS BLOG FREE OF HATE SPEECH !!!!
Look this Rick guy is a little weird, but he has a point. If the RI Blog is not open to all then is it really open to anyone?
I also agree that we need to keep Republican politics off this site and off the island completely.
This blog is open to everybody. You can even post anonymously like what I just did. The thing is that RI Ricks comments tend to make the comment section quite hostile. Since this blog is owned by "Roosevelt Islander" he is the one setting the standards. If RIR wants his way, he can go ahead and start his own blog.
A word about Roosevelt Islander, This is not HIS Blog, it is a community Blog. In fact I am not sure that Roosevelt Islander evens lives on RI. I think this guy is out to make a buck, by promoting all the new business comming to RI. Can ads be far behind from all the corporate greed he flacks on here. I want a community Blog, not one run by some ad exe from midtown Manhatten- Yes I am calling you out Roosevelt Islander, prove to us that you even live in the Island.
Two things and then I will stop responding to RIR (heeding my own advice not to feed the trolls):
- If you read all blog entries from the beginning you will know that Roosevelt Islander indeed lives in Roosevelt Island (in Riverwalk to be precise). Get informed before you open your mouth.
- The blog was started by Roosevelt Islander and he is the one running it, i.e. it is HIS blog. It is not run by the city, the RIOC, or whatever community entity you prefer. It's a privately run blog and the owner has the last word. Period. Again, if you want a community-run blog go ahead and help yourself. The tools are out there.
TO RICK:
Chill yourself Dude. Personally, I am finding your comments increasingly entertaining, especially as they get more desperate for attention. But as you note, it is a community blog (though not owned by the community) and Islander seems like he wanted to be sure everyone felt comfortable viewing (and having their kids view), and commenting. No need to get hostile - although you probably will.
I never get hostile. I am sure you say that because I am Jewish. My people are used to being called names and worse.
Islander: Do you know if they have these statistics by year? I've wondered whether there was any correlation between the crime rate and the subway, extensive construction and the influx of new tenants.
Carl,
The Main Street Wire has archived public safety blotter reports in previous years. For instance here is a link to November 17, 2003 Public Safety blotter which is in the form of a narrative of incidents rather than statistical numbers of incidents. http://nyc10044.com/wire/2407/blot2407.html
