November 13, 2012 Weather: A few showers, High of 47 Degrees.

Notices:
Upper West Side events today include free concerts, and a meeting on a new bike parking proposal.

The Community Board meeting cancelled last week is rescheduled for Thursday at 6:30 p.m.

News:
Apartment 8B at 15 Central Park West is seeking $59,000 — a month! Available for year-long leases starting Feb. 1. (Curbed)

We have reported before on the rat problem in local playgrounds in Riverside and Central Parks. The critters have also been seen at the Little Engine Playground on 68th Street. Residents say the city has been less than helpful. “In October, the father, who asked not to be named, filed several complaints with 311, the city’s helpline, but said he was confused by the email message response: “Work to correct the reported condition has been deferred because of seasonal considerations and will be corrected as soon as possible.” (DNAinfo)

The MTA won’t give refunds to people who had unlimited metro cards but couldn’t use them because of hurricane-related disruptions. (NY Times)

David Elias, 31, of West 103rd Street, was arrested and charged with stabbing his mother and brother and setting fire to their Harlem apartment. (DNAinfo)

The rat problem isn’t just in the playgrounds. With the sanitation trucks on Sandy duty and the trash piling up, I’ve been seeing them scuttling across 92nd Street.
