Lester Chang Talks About the Assault on 60th Street and 7th Avenue
Assemblyman Lester Chang shared that a woman was assaulted on 60th Street and 7th Avenue. He said that the block was poorly lit because a lot of people don’t have lights outside their home.
Assemblyman Chang said he was going to look into improving the lighting on the block and near the bus stop.
Chang didn’t know how the victim was doing, but the 72nd Street police said the perp was still in jail.

April 25, 2026Xaverian High School Will Break Grounds For Their New Wing
Xaverian High School is expanding and adding an exploration and innovation center. They are breaking ground this Spring and expect the new wing to be ready in 2027.
This new twenty-six million dollar wing will be for new classrooms, a science lab, a fabrication lab and a rooftop terrace. The chapel will also be moved into the new wing. Sixth graders to twelfth graders will use the new wing.
If you recall, the residents off MacKay Place were not happy about a giant cross that was going to be added to the expansion. On the recent photos, I don’t see the cross. Have they changed their plans?
