Great to see Sunnyside Shines getting participation from restaurants on Skillman (who are not in their district). The Skillman Project/Sunnyside Chamber have been completely absent of leadership this year. I wonder if they’re even doing holiday lights?

Better take the 7 train or walk. Where will everyone park to allow out of neighborhood people to support the Sunnyside restaurants, JVB?

No need to be concerned

If you only took a look at the plan you’d notice that exactly ONE metered spot was removed on skillman. There are more restaurants participating in this non-Sunnyside Chamber event than parking spots affected on blocks on either avenue. There is also a more than ample offering of commercial parking in the area, so parking will not be problem whatsoever.
