New York City’s Sanitation Department says it has met its goal of plowing every street at least once. Spokesman Keith Mellis says not every street has been taken down to blacktop but the roads were passable by the 7 a.m. today, the time the agency said it would have them plowed.
Mellis says today’s s goal is to “keep working on the streets.”
He says the department also will position snow melters throughout the city to begin clearing the streets of large mounds of the plowed snow.
He says “we’re actively plowing and hauling during the course of the day.”
He says the agency received a few calls of missed streets and would investigate.

B”H we have Greenfeld. Because of him hundreds of thousands of kinderlech could go to Yeshiva and millions of blatt gemorah and Torah was learned.
That’s absolutely a LIE!!!! While I passed 40th & 41st Streets in Boro Park AFTER 10:00 AM today, these streets were not plowed even “ONCE”!!!
I don’t know who’s saying they’re all plowed because I went out today and saw MANY streets NOT plowed.
My street was plowed once but it didn’t take any snow off. We still have about a foot of hard packed snow on the street.
East 9th between N & O still has NOT been plowed!
it was amazing, we had a tractor come down and really break up the layers of ice and pile up the snow so that our block is blacktop once again, of course there are long piles of ice on both sides of the street totally blocking in all the cars. then this afternoon 3 plows came down the block which absolutely did not need it anymore. Had they done this 3 days ago the city would be functional by now.
a huge thanks to the sanitation departement
47th Street between 13th & 14th Avenues, were not Shoveled as of 4:30 this afternoon

Tiferes Yisroel (E 35 K&L) and Torah Vodaas (E 9 Cortelyou & Ditmas) are among the streets that seem to have been ignored. I’m sure they’re not the only ones. sigh.
