I hope this email finds you well as we head into the Weekend. As usual for a Friday email, it includes
DOT’s weekend traffic advisory
, the
MTA "Weekender
,
" and a heads up that Alternate Side Parking(ASP) will be in effect throughout the weekend.

Thursday, November 28
th,
is, of course, Thanksgiving, and you should know
Alternate Side Parking and
Meters will be suspended
but back in effect on

a lot of folks don’t seem to realize this
and experience less cheer to start the holiday season.
Looking a bit further ahead to

NYP Brooklyn Methodist Hospital
while the next week, on Wednesday,
December 11
th
, we will hold our
December General Board Meeting

Cobble Hill Health Center

As I say every day, we are lucky to have such an active community, and there is a chance I’ve missed something. If there is an event or something community-centric happening that you think I/others should know about,
please let me know
.
Have a great weekend and, as always, feel free to share this information however you’d like.
