Prospect Park Holiday Litter


It’s truly amazing how the South Slope Latino community is so ready to hijack the SW corner of the park every holiday weekend for their enormous bar-b-ques. Even more fascinating though is the amount of plastic crap they leave thrown about for the rest of us to find the next morning.

Reqd distance of sink to riser


Hi I am in the market looking at Co-ops and am always wondering what latitude one has in reconfiguring a kitchen.
If the waste, water, and gas risers are going to remain in place where they are, how much does NYC code allow/limit you to horizontally pipe away from these risers to a new fixture location?

Thanks to anyone who knows!
