The Throggs Neck Business Improvement District’s
2024 TOY GIVEAWAY
Will Be Held on
Friday, December 20 From 3-6 pm
Along East Tremont Avenue from Bruckner to Miles
Look for the BID Shuttle Bus!
The Throggs Neck BID’s annual Tree Lighting Event will be held on December 18, beginning at 5pm, at the Derosa-O’Boyle Triangle near the public library. It’s a magical, FREE evening. Come for the music, toys for kids (first come, first served), and delicious food. Our co-sponsors, including Assembly Member Mike Benedetto, Council Member Kristi Marmorato, and Senator Nathalia Fernadez, as well as Bally’s and L&J events, help make the spirit bright.
The Throggs Neck Bid has once again made our community safer and more beautiful! Throughout the BID area, beautiful planters that also serve as safety barriers preventing out-of-control vehicles from entering the sidewalk, have been installed. Bushes currently grace the planters, and come spring, an explosion of colorful flowers will brighten the neighborhood.
Throggs Neck BID Executive Director Bob Jaen, Associate Director Frank Vernuccio, and representatives of Bronx BIDS met on November 13 with Bronx DA Darcel Clark to discuss issues involving crime and unlawful cannabis sales.
The Throggs Neck BID will hold its ANNUAL MEETING on December 18, 2024, 6:30 to 7:30 pm, at the LIVING ROOM, 2883 DILL PLACE, Bronx, NY 10465. A review of the BID’s activities during the previous year will be held, and plans for the coming year will be discussed. The public is invited. You must be a property owner, business, or resident within the geographical area of the BID to vote, and be registered with the BID.
