Throggs Neck BID
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.
A spectacular new restaurant has opened in the Throggs Neck BID! LaVieMex is at 4001 East Tremont Avenue. It features a delicious and unique menu with a Mexican-French favor and an innovative bar that provides both traditional drinks and “mocktails.” It is the creation of Throggs Neck resident Jasmine Cruz, who oversees an attentive and friendly staff.
