After Today's Snowstorm, Roosevelt Island Sidewalk And Streets Mostly Plowed Or Shoveled But Not Sidewalk Next To Rivercross Lawn

Most of Roosevelt Island sidewalks and streets were shoveled or plowed today


so that pedestrians and vehicles could safely get to


their destination


except for the sidewalk adjacent to the Rivercross Lawn


which as of 4 PM this afternoon


still had not been plowed.

Why?

UPDATE 1/4 6:55 PM - A Roosevelt Island Longtimer reported:
The lawn south of Rivercross, and the sidewalk next to it along main street is RIOC's responsibility.

Usually it gets one plowing - sometimes two. Sometime Rivercross staff takes a stab at plowing it.

It has been the site of many, many slips and slides, some broken wrists and ankles, and RIOC usually gets to it eventually.

Bad answer, but historically correct.
The Rivercross lawn sidewalk


was shoveled


when I walked by this morning at about 11 AM.
