For the first time, several streets in Boro Park will be closed to vehicles on the first night of Rosh Hashanah to accommodate the thousands of pedestrians expected throughout the neighborhood. The closures, coordinated by Community Board 12 with the NYPD, Shomrim and Chaveirim, will include 14th and 15th Avenues between 47th and 51st Streets, as well as 48th, 49th and 50th Streets between 13th and 16th Avenues. The move is aimed at providing additional space and safer passage for residents walking to visit family, Rebbes and Rabbanim throughout Yom Tov night.
