In 2012, Superstorm Sandy heavily inundated Lower Manhattan; 14 years later, this 10-foot elevated lawn at Wagner Park hides a multi-billion-dollar flood barrier

There’s more to a new structure in Lower Manhattan than meets the eye. If you take a stroll through the newly reopened Wagner Park and The Battery , you will likely notice a beautiful new stone wall. However, this structure is designed as a critical line of defense against future flooding . It looks like a simple landscape feature, but it is actually part of a massive effort to protect Lower Manhattan from storm surges and rising sea levels . A lawn with a secret purpose According to PIX 11 , neighborhood residents are thrilled to have the space back after years of construction. People are already using the waterfront to watch the sunrise and relax on the grass. But that pristine lawn serves a dual purpose. It actively functions as a stormwater collection basin . When severe weather threatens the area, the wall itself becomes a flood barrier. There are mechanical gates built into the sidewalks that can be raised and locked into place to block incoming water. “It feels like it’s part of the park,” said Raju Mann, president and CEO of the Battery Park City Authority . “If there’s a heavy storm event that pushes water in,

Artist busted painting tribute to slain NYC teen that featured bullets for birthday candles

An Instagram-famous artist was busted while painting a tribute to a murdered Bronx teen– leaving behind his unfinished mural of brains being washed, chained heads and bullet-shaped birthday candles. David Miklatski, 37 — a California-based artist who goes by the moniker David Sabastian and has more than 460,000 Instagram followers — was arrested Wednesday while working on the mural on the side of Mision de Dios church in Third Avenue near East 171st Street in The Bronx, according to police. The mural was intended to honor Javits Frimpong , the 15-year-old Ghanaian immigrant fatally shot in the stomach by still-at-large suspects while walking to school near the church Oct. 29. The unfinished mural included a chessboard with pawns, a washing machine containing brains and a portrait of the teen victim above a birthday cake with bullets for candles. Georgette Roberts for NY Post But the artist’s black-and-white vision — which included black men with chains and padlocks around their heads — angered some community member who said the grieving neighborhood needed a portrait, not a provocative statement. “We’re still in the mourning, and someone’s stupidly come here and put this thing up. This is ridiculous,” said Benjamin Richardson, 40. Manhunt

NYC wacko who allegedly bashed Central Park artist to death found not fit for trial

The stick-wielding man who allegedly admitted to fatally bludgeoning a beloved Central Park artist with a stick was found not fit to stand trial, a Manhattan judge revealed Tuesday. Jonathan Robles, 36, was set to be arraigned in Manhattan Supreme Court on murder charges for the Sept. 27 Central Park killing of Lee Rogers , a 63-year-old painter, before the madman’s attorney jumped in and said that he failed his mental health evaluation. Defendant Jonathan Robles is seen for the first time since being indicted with murder. Steven Hirsch for NY Post “I’m objecting to my client from being arraigned — he’s not fit,” attorney Mitchell Schuman told Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Althea Drysdale just before the scheduled arraignment. The mental health exam — also known as a 730 exam — was ordered by a criminal court judge at his initial arraignment in Manhattan Criminal Court in October. Prosecutors revealed that Robles’ exam results were only returned Monday, and asked the judge for a three-week adjournment for them to “digest” the findings to figure out how they will proceed.

Bill signed to shield NYC housing units from 'predatory' investors

(The Center Square) — Nonprofits and community groups in New York City will be given first crack at buying distressed multifamily buildings before they hit the private market, under a bill signed by Mayor Zohran Mamdani on Tuesday. The legislation, called the Community Opportunity to Purchase Act, will give qualified entities — such as community land trusts and local development groups — the early option to bid on certain kinds of multifamily properties before they are put on the open market. Backers of the plan say it will prevent predatory investment groups from buying up properties and overcharging for rent. Under the new law, which goes into effect next November, bidders will have 20 days to express interest to the owner and the city’s Department of Housing Preservation and Development, and another 70 days to make a competitive offer. If that time period expires without a viable offer, the property will go on the market, according to the Mamdani administration. "This law will give New Yorkers a tool to keep their homes out of the hands of predatory investors seeking to make a quick and easy buck,” Mamdani, who campaigned on giving nonprofits the authorization to buy dilapidated buildings, told

Don’t Blame the Manolos. Blame Your Mother.

Bunions are mostly inherited. High heels just pull the trigger, and a Manhattan podiatrist explains when it’s time to do something about it. The short version: Bunions are mainly caused by an inherited foot shape. Narrow, high-heeled shoes make them worse by pushing weight and pressure toward the big toe joint. Manhattan podiatrist Dr. Rebecca Pruthi considers surgery only when a bunion becomes painful, makes walking difficult or makes shoes difficult to wear, never for looks alone.
