Thanks to the very busy 40th

Last evening no fewer than nine police officers (!) and well over 40 ClockTowerTenants gathered in the wake of a tenant mugging to discuss neighborhood safety and to define a strategy going forward. A sincere thank you to all the tenants who contributed to our successful turnout.

Captain Elias Nikas and Police Officer Dimas Cortez from the office of Community Affairs led a spirited exchange that ranged from accusation to gratitude. They touched on crime statistics, prevention methods and the undercover efforts largely unseen by our residents with a humorous moment provided by the appearance of an undercover Lieutenant dressed down in Tims and a hoodie!

Thanks to the very busy 40th for their time and impressive turnout and their sincere involvement in our wellbeing. In future posts we will pursue their suggestion that we form a small board of ClockTowerTenants to serve as liaison to their Community Affairs office. 

In the meantime, 40th Precinct Community Affairs meetings are the first Wednesday of each month at Lincoln Hospital at 6:00 p.m, the next one is December 1st.
