Ocean Hill Bleeds While Leaders Stall
Ocean Hill: Jan 1, 2022 - Jul 24, 2025
Broken Streets, Broken Bodies
No one died in Ocean Hill this year. But the blood still runs. In the last twelve months, 285 people were hurt in crashes here. Five were left with serious injuries. Children, elders, cyclists, men and women—none spared. The numbers are not just numbers. They are broken bones, torn skin, and lives that do not heal.
Just last week, a cyclist was left bleeding from the head at Somers Street and Broadway. A bus passed too close. The man was left incoherent, blood pooling on the pavement. He was forty. He survived. Not everyone does. NYC Open Data
The Usual Suspects
Cars and SUVs do most of the damage. In the past three years, they left 124 people hurt, three with serious injuries. Trucks and buses hit eight, one seriously. Motorcycles and mopeds struck six. Bikes, too, hurt four, one badly. No one is safe—not on foot, not on two wheels, not at any hour.
Leaders: Votes and Silence
Local leaders have taken some steps. State Senator Jabari Brisport voted yes to extend school speed zones and co-sponsored the bill to curb repeat speeders. Assembly Member Latrice Walker did the same. But the work is not done. Parking is still allowed up to the crosswalk in much of the district. Council Member Darlene Mealy co-sponsored a bill to ban it, but the law is not yet in force. see votes
Some leaders speak, but the streets stay the same. As one advocate said after another Brooklyn crash, “We wait until someone dies. We wait until a tragedy. We wait to say, ‘oh my gosh, how could this possibly have happened?’ We let this happen time and time again.”
The Call
This is not fate. Every injury is a failure. Every delay is a choice. Call your council member. Call your assembly member. Tell them: No more waiting. No more blood. Make Ocean Hill safe. Now.
