Citing security issues, Poly Prep Country Day School has appliedto the city for permission to privatize a section of BatteryAvenue, and residents of the area are mixed in their reaction tothe idea.
If there were enough spots, I would not care, said John R, wholives on the block. If they make part of the street private, wewill have less spots. There is not enough parking here to beginwith.
But Mike Nomikos welcomed the news. The road should be closedbecause kids drag race down this block, he explained. I want itclosed.
