Every Tuesday night the new tenants can enjoy "Two Wheel Tuesday," a block party where 30-40 bikers hang out all night on 2nd St and 1st Ave, revving their engines, yelling at each other over the noise, harassing women, circling the block and repairing their bikes. The good news is that local pols like Rosie Mendez and the 9th Pct refuse to do anything about the noise, so the new tenants can be assured of enjoying the festivities without interruption. Good times!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
