Too many residents of all ages and classes require a community medical facility. Brooklyn is now an international tourist destination; the daily influx of visitors to Brooklyn Bridge Park streaming over the Brooklyn Bridge on foot, by subway and in screeching double-decker tour buses make it absurd to close LICH. When kids are hit by a taxi on Tuesday at Cadman Plaza Park and have to be taken by ambulance to 68th Street in Manhattan, this should force us all to put the brakes on the shuttering of LICH.Robertonoreply@blogger.com
