Boro Park Shomrim, in coordination with Yanky Eisdorfer, senior advisor to Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso, helped light up the streets of Boro Park during Yom Tov Pesach.

Following a similar effort during Sukkos, when residents along 21st Avenue and 20th Avenue near the cemetery requested additional lighting due to a previous incident, Boro Park Shomrim arranged for light towers to be placed. Throughout Sukkos Shomrim Shabbos Patrol volunteers actively monitored and maintained the lights to ensure they remained fully operational.

This Pesach, Shomrim once again worked with Yanky Eisdorfer, senior advisor to Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso, to secure additional light towers from NYC OEM and the NYPD to illuminate the area. The effort greatly enhanced safety, especially during the late-night Yom Tov hours, and was warmly appreciated by the community.

A neighborhood resident told YWN, “It made a huge difference. Walking home late at night felt much safer. We’re really grateful to Shomrim, the Borough President’s office, and everyone who made this happen.”
