A New Fence

The residents of East 4th Street, between Avenues C and D, were surprised this morning to wake up and find that the fence in front of the Orchard Alley Community Garden was being taken down:

But fear not, East 4th Streeters — the fence is being replaced! The new fence will look more like the nice fence down the block in front of Parque Tranquilidad (photo compliments of Google Maps!):

While work is taking place, a perimeter fence will be erected to protect passers-by:

Hopefully, they will level the soil, that rises up nearly six inches at the front:

Making the East Village a better place for everyone, once fence at a time!
