Our Clean Team's Lead Supervisor Tony Stass is hard at work painting our district's street furniture. As part of our efforts to maintain Lincoln Square's streetscape, we routinely paint fire hydrants, mall barriers, light poles, traffic boxes, and mailboxes in the spring and summer months.
If you notice an unusual and perhaps unpleasant odor around the Broadway Malls, planters, and Dante Park, don't be alarmed. Our new landscaping company, Kelco Landscaping, will be applying organic fertilizer--from farm to city--to our gardens to insure bigger and healthier plants. The odor will go away!
