Monday's parting shots

Today city workers power washed the spraypainted messages (and removed all the flyers) off the sidewalks on both the NE and SE corners of Ninth Street and First Avenue. 

A group of unhoused residents have been living on the NE corner under the sidewalk bridge in recent months (a corridor dubbed Anarchy Road) ... which has also been a focal point of ongoing sweeps by multiple city agencies, including members of the NYPD, the Department of Sanitation and the Department of Homeless Services. 

For now, there aren't any signs of the residents... a few of the messages, all directed toward Mayor Adams and the NYPD, remain in the roadway despite the power washing...
