Too many lifelong residents who grew up in the same buildings are getting sick and are dying.

They look like they're dying and the leaves are browning because they are not getting enough water. The soil is so dry it's cracking. Saave the Hydrangeas, people!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-215972925995049794.post-83496048573844858602008-07-02T00:35:00.000-04:002008-07-02T00:35:00.000-04:00It's funny how Stuyvesant Town is the only place where I've seen a three-legged robin. But I don't really think that the toxic dirt had anything to do with it.

It's some kind of Q and A thingy. What does it mean?<BR/><BR/><B>Peter Cooper Village and Stuyvesant Town</B><BR/>Two iconic Manhattan properties. One to suit every lifestyle.<BR/><BR/><I>Q: Does Tishman-Spyer provide effective protection for all its residents? <BR/><BR/>A: We at Tishman-Speyer studied how landlords around the world have prepared to meet the dangers of toxins in the air released during massive landscaping or simolar projects/accidents. We found that the landlord for Lipatnikova Town-Ter Sarkisov Village in the town of Pripyat in the the former Soviet Union near the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant provided their tenants free gas masks. They have been proved effective against highly radioactive fallout for over two decades. We anticipated the need for similar masks here in Stuyvesant Town-Peter Cooper Village and developed our own designs for gas masks and special hoods for babies and children.<BR/><BR/>Q: What is a gas mask? <BR/><BR/>A: A gas mask is a device that is worn to reduce the amount of contamination in the air that you breathe. <BR/><BR/>Q. What types do you offer?<BR/><BR/>A. Ours will cover your entire face. All gas masks have filters that are used with them.<BR/><BR/>Q. When and where will they be available?<BR/><BR/>A. Saturday-Thursday 10:00am-7:00pm, Friday 10:00 am-6:00 pm at Playground 1.<BR/><BR/>That is all.</I>Edna Doodlehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08893862652001372560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-215972925995049794.post-39951572006256601492008-07-01T10:14:00.000-04:002008-07-01T10:14:00.000-04:00Stuytown Mom & toddlers find strange creatures in mud hole near playground 12. <BR/>After looking more closely at the frogs in the slime.
