Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Precinct 71?
Blood on Eastern Parkway: City Leaders Are Counting Corpses, Not Saving Lives
Precinct 71: Jan 1, 2022 - Jul 31, 2025
The Toll in Blood and Silence
In Precinct 71, the numbers do not lie. Six people killed. Thirty-one left with serious injuries. More than 1,800 hurt since 2022. The dead include a child, a centenarian, and a man struck down crossing Eastern Parkway. The wounds are not just numbers. They are broken families, empty chairs, and shoes left behind in the street.
Just last month, an eight-year-old boy was killed by an SUV at Eastern Parkway and Albany Avenue. In April, a 101-year-old woman was struck and killed crossing with the signal at Montgomery Street and Brooklyn Avenue. The driver was unlicensed. The car was an SUV. The story is always the same: speed, distraction, failure to yield. The cost is always paid by the most vulnerable.
Leadership: Promises and the Waiting Game
The police have the tools. They can enforce speed limits, ticket reckless drivers, and target the corners where people keep dying. But enforcement alone is not enough. Local leaders have the power to demand safer streets, lower speed limits, and redesign deadly crossings.
But the clock keeps ticking. The bodies keep coming. “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,” said State Senator Andrew Gounardes. The silence is loud. The delays are deadly.
The Road Forward: No More Waiting
Precinct 71 can be made safe. The police can crack down on speeding and failure to yield. The city can lower the speed limit to 20 mph. Leaders can push for real street redesigns, not just paint. Residents can demand action. “We want the city to actually commit real capital to make sure that it can do treatments that truly address the safety concerns,” said Councilmember Alexa Avilés.
Every day of delay is another day someone does not come home.
Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand safer streets.
