The Throggs Neck BID, along with Assemblymember Michael Benedetto, State Senator Nathalia Fernandez, and local businesses will again present a beloved neighborhood event: the annual tree lighting and toy giveaway (first come, first served) for the community’s children. Food and good cheer, all free! It all happens on December 3, starting at 5:30pm, at the Derosa O’Boyle triangle near the public library. Happy Holidays!

May 2 was an extraordinary day in our community!

Council Member Kristy Marmorato, State Senator Fernandez, and former Assembly Member Stephen Kaufman joined Bid Executive Director Bob Jaen and the head of the 45 Precinct, Deputy Inspector Johnny A. Orellana in making the long-awaited announcement.
