Alternate Side Parking Suspended, Reinstated, Suspended and Reinstated Again
The Department of Transportation announced Wednesday that alternate side parking was suspended indefinitely (again) for community board districts hardest hit by Sandy. This included Community Board 6, which covers South Slopers from 9th Street to 15th Street.
After a huge hoopla from some within the Slope community, though, the DOT revised its suspension (again) and reinstated alternate side parking in parts of CB6:
ASP regulations are reinstated in the portion of Brooklyn Community Board 6 east of Hamilton Avenue, including the neighborhoods of Carroll Gardens, Park Slope, Gowanus, Boerum Hill and Cobble Hill. The area is delimited by Hamilton Avenue on the west, Atlantic Avenue, Court Street, Fourth Avenue, Warren and Pacific Streets on the north, Prospect Park on the east and 15th Street and the Gowanus Canal on the south.
ASP remains suspended in the portion of Community Board 6 west of and including Hamilton Avenue, covering the neighborhood of Red Hook. The area is delimited by the East River, Upper New York Bay, Gowanus Creek and Hamilton Avenue.
Long story short, alternate side parking is back in the hood. Make sure you move your car.
