Hurricane Sandy damage limited in Kensington
While the city continues to recover from the devastating effects of Hurricane Sandy’s aftermath, Kensington was spared any major inconvenience or damage. At worst, the storm has disrupted the lifestyles of Kensingtonians who would have otherwise been commuting into the city and perusing their daily grind.
And, while there might be the temptation to succumb to small bit of survivor guilt while the idle mind wrestles with cabin fever and the concern of loved ones and friends in other parts of the country, perhaps the lack of tragedy in our neighborhood gives us the unique opportunity to reach out to our more affected neighboring ones with a helping hand.
Our Councilmember, Brad Lander, has done a thorough job of listing ways we can be of service to neighborhoods still on their way towards complete recovery. Please visit http://bradlander.com/hurricane to sign up for any of the ongoing initiatives for those hit hardest by the storm.
MINOR CASUALTIES: Kensington was fortunate to have been spared any major damage or inconvenience from the devastation unleashed by Hurricane Sandy in other parts of the city and nation. This awning espied on the morning after, Wed. Oct. 31, along McDonald Avenue at Church was among the minor casualties aside from fallen tree branches.
Originally installed on the NW corner of Church and McDonald Avenue this awning had been pulled about 10 yards west and across the street from where it had stood the day before, Tuesday.
