On Thursday, February 4th at 7 PM, the community is invited to attend the Park Slope Civic Council’s February Trustee’s meeting in the Executive Dining Room of New York Methodist Hospital. Of special interest will be reports from representatives of the NYC Transit Authority (talking about construction on the F Line and other issues) and Prospect Park Alliance (telling us about the new skating rink, among other things). In order to accommodate the public who might not wish to stay for the duration of the meeting, the guest speakers will be placed at the top of the agenda.
