Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Castle Hill-Unionport?
Castle Hill Bleeds—City Sleeps
Castle Hill-Unionport: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 4, 2025
The Slow Grind of Loss
Four dead. Over six hundred injured. That is the toll in Castle Hill-Unionport since 2022. The numbers do not bleed, but people do. A 64-year-old man, crossing at Bruckner and Castle Hill, struck by an SUV. A 19-year-old, dead on the Bruckner Expressway. A 62-year-old woman, killed in a crosswalk by a turning SUV. These are not accidents. They are collisions, each one a life ended or broken. City data confirms it.
No one is spared. Children, elders, workers. In the last year alone, ninety people were injured on these streets. Not one serious injury was counted as “preventable”—but every one was. The dead do not get a second chance.
The Machines That Kill
SUVs and cars do most of the harm. Three of the four deaths came from SUVs or cars. Trucks, buses, and bikes trail far behind in the body count. The streets are built for speed and size, not for the people who walk them. The numbers are plain: cars and trucks are the threat. The data is clear.
Leadership: Action or Absence?
What has changed? The city passed Sammy’s Law, allowing New York to lower speed limits to 20 mph. But in Castle Hill-Unionport, the pace of change is slow. The deaths keep coming. The silence from local leaders is louder than any promise. No new redesigns. No bold votes. No public reckoning. The streets remain the same.
What Now?
This is not fate. Every crash is a choice made by the city, by leaders, by those who set the rules and draw the lines. Call your council member. Demand lower speed limits. Demand street redesigns. Demand action. The dead cannot speak. The living must.
