Norwood’s Corners Keep Breaking Bodies
Norwood: Jan 1, 2022 - Sep 4, 2025
Just after 7 PM on Jun 3, 2025, an SUV hit a 9‑year‑old crossing E 205th Street at Webster Avenue. Police logged a fractured leg and a front‑end strike on the SUV (NYC Open Data, CrashID 4817809).
Since Jan 1, 2022, Norwood has seen 3 people killed and 467 injured in reported traffic crashes (NYC Open Data). Pedestrians account for 1 of those deaths and 133 injuries in this span. Bikes show 23 injuries. Cars and SUVs drive most of the harm.
This year, crashes in this neighborhood have risen to 220 from 166 at the same point last year; injuries rose to 124 from 91. Deaths fell from 1 to 0 in the same comparison. The danger didn’t pass; it shifted (NYC Open Data).
Corners that won’t forgive
Mosholu Parkway. East Gun Hill Road. Webster Avenue. These are the repeat scenes, with the most injuries since 2022, including fatalities on or near them (NYC Open Data). A taxi passenger died on Webster at Parkside in 2023. A moped rider died by Mosholu and Bainbridge in early 2024. A pedestrian died at East Gun Hill and Dekalb in 2022 (CrashIDs 4604527, 4692380, 4491529).
The pain peaks at rush—5 PM holds the most injuries in the dataset here. Late night isn’t spared either; midnight and 1 AM also show bodies in the log (NYC Open Data). Named driver errors show up again and again: failure to yield, inattention, and blowing signals.
Two blocks, two hits
E 205th and Webster isn’t a one‑off. A month later, a driver hit a 31‑year‑old on an e‑bike at the same crossroads. Police cited failure to yield (CrashID 4828338). One corner. Two people down.
The record is public. So are the tools.
On cameras, Assembly Member Jeffrey Dinowitz said: “People shouldn’t run red lights… when they do that they endanger other people’s lives, and people have died” (Gothamist). On speed, Council Member Eric Dinowitz told colleagues: “If you don’t want a speeding ticket, don’t speed” (Streetsblog NYC).
Albany moved to expand red‑light cameras citywide in 2024 (Gothamist). In 2025, State Senator Gustavo Rivera co‑sponsored and voted yes in committee to require speed‑limiting tech for repeat violators (S 4045) (Open States). Assembly Member John Zaccaro Jr. co‑sponsored a bill to strengthen camera enforcement against plate concealment (A 7997) (Open States).
The city’s DOT has urged more red‑light cameras, citing rising signal running and safety gains where cameras are placed (Streetsblog NYC).
Fix the corners that maim
Norwood’s map points to simple work: daylighting at crosswalks, hardened turns, and leading pedestrian intervals on Mosholu, East Gun Hill, Webster, and E 205th. Targeted failure‑to‑yield enforcement at the evening peak. Protect the bike line of fire at Webster.
Then finish the job citywide. Lower the default speed limit. Pass and enforce the repeat‑speeder bill. Keep the cameras on and honest.
The boy on E 205th is one line in a ledger. The next line doesn’t have to be written. Start here. Start now. Take action.
