Crashed cars take up too many spaces on 27th Street, say residents
A Sunset Park auto collision repair shop is taking up spaces by parking totaled cars along 27th Street, leaving few spots for residents.
For the past five years, Americal Collision Inc. has been parking smashed-up vehicles in legal spaces on both sides of the block, according to a long-time resident who wishes to remain anonymous for fear of repercussions.
At the 72nd Precinct Community Council meeting on January 8, the homeowner said that he observed 16 parked cars left by the collision shop at one time. In some cases, the cars obstruct the sidewalk, sometimes for a whole weekend, he contended.
