newsletterWe know most of you have been on the edge of your seat since the last issue of the Lefferts Manor Echo hit news stands last July. Well, the wait is over. The January issue is out and it’s hot, hot, hot! In addition to plugging Thursday night’s candidate forum on preservation and development (P.S. 217 from 7-9pm), the issue has articles on the local anti-litter initiative, the ArtMart event and the Greenstreet space, among other topics. Kudos to all the volunteers who chip in to produce this. Are there any other home-grown neighborhood publications out there?

  1. The one item in this edition of the Echo that’s of importance beyond LM and PLG is the candidates forum (for the special City Council election) dealing specifically with preservation and development issues. It was organized by the Historic Districts Council and is co-sponsored by
    many Flatbush groups–Beverly Square West Association, Caton Park Neighborhood Association, Ditmas Park Association, Ditmas Park West Neighborhood Association, Fiske Terrace Association, Flatbush Development Corporation, Lefferts Manor Association, Midwood Park Homeowners Association, Prospect Park South Association and West Midwood Community Association.

    The forum will be on Thursday, February 8, from 7:00-9:00pm at Public School 217
    1100 Newkirk Avenue, Bet Coney Island Ave. and Westminster Road.
