It's holiday season again in Dyker Heights. The annual Christmas display, which gets more elaborate every year, is said to draw more than 100,000 visitors to Brooklyn from across the country.Annual Dyker Heights light displays bring holiday cheer: https://t.co/RjmvToDiOS pic.twitter.com/VpUmBK0t9l— Eyewitness News (@ABC7NY) December 3, 2016
This charming event draws so many tour buses, however, that police recently revoked parking privileges for locals along 86th Street between 11th and 13th Avenues from 5 p.m. to midnight. This drew quite an outcry from residents.
Now, according to Bensonhurst Bean, NYPD Brooklyn South Chief Steven Powers has decided to revise the controversial plan, and reserve only three bus lengths along 86th Street for buses.
A reasonable solution?
