Picture of the Day

More than 12 hours after the Labor Day Parade passed through Eastern Parkway in Crown Heights, the streets remain littered with trash and broken glass. “I was afraid my tires would pop from all the broken glass,” a resident told COLlive.com. Photo

Our parade doesn’t feature beer drinking and other inappropriate behavior.

All benches and the pedestrian walkway are greasy, filthy and smell like a vomit… food, bottle, plates, cups …
Need to be washed with soap, and there were zero workers … maybe they will be cleaning tomorrow but I doubt it

Lets be real
September 2, 2025 1:17 pm

There must’ve been 1m ppl at yesterdays parade…what do you expect?

Kingston ave looks disgusting the entire week of sukkos.

Lets try this year to ask all those that run food and festival events on sukkos on kingston to be more respectful to the community and keep the avenue clen.

One full day Chol HaMoed - no vendors will come

After the streets in this picture was cleaned. More people walked though blocking cars and making a new mess. I live near this picture. And untill late last night there were many people walking through there.

Besides the beer bottles that are still visible. The USPS post boxes are still locked. And the corner garbage bins have not been returned.
Disgusting.

About time
September 2, 2025 2:02 pm

It’s about time the parade should move to Harlem.

Walk down Albany
September 2, 2025 2:57 pm

We need to clean our streets. Why are there streamers and pole decorations along the Lag Baomer parade route which have not been removed?

Side walks are all filthy and the odor of leftover
September 2, 2025 9:15 pm

I don’t know why the city didn’t wash with soap all pedestrians roads and benches – you can’t walk it’s a disgrace leftovers, used plates, alcohol bottles etc
Why not to wash it today really well and not to pick up all garbage … it’s really bad all were BBQ on side walks and all greasy ;( … no one cares about the city and this is park zone
