Increase in Nighttime Police Presence Just Precautionary

A neighbor wrote this week to ask us about the increased nighttime police presence around the Pavilion Theatre, and on 7th Avenue. Although our phone call to the 78th Precinct has not yet been returned, a patrolman spotted on 5th Avenue and 11th Street let us know that, given the holiday season and recent neighborhood robberies, it’s all precautionary.

We’ll keep you posted on any new information we receive.
