“The safety of our community is always my first priority and I am very happy to see this finally come to fruition. Once installed, these cameras will be an additional tool for law enforcement professionals to monitor the park area and ensure our safety. Thank you to the NPS and NYPD for their partnership with the Task Force, and their commitment to our neighborhood,” Pheffer Amato said.
