Greenpoint roads near Meeker Avenue and Manhattan Avenue saw massive amounts of flooding.<\/p>\n
Alex Mickiewicz tells News 12 he had to resort to a bike as his last shot and commuting for work.<\/p>\n
\u201cI hopped on the G train to come up here, and it stopped at Bedford-Nostrand, said it wasn’t going any further. Got out, tried to order a car. Car was going to cost me $75 because, you know, everybody ordering them, that kept canceling. So, I got in the city bike and now I’m biking. And now I\u2019m trying to cross this river right under the BQE,” said Mickiewicz.<\/p>\n
Bushwick also saw its fair share of flooding near Knickerbocker Avenue. Nearby employees like Sotero Vasquez say he spent hours trying to drain the flooding.<\/p>\n
\u201cI just basically unclogged drainage, got all the fill, dirt, leaves and that’s all it took,” said Vasquez.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Greenpoint roads near Meeker Avenue and Manhattan Avenue saw massive amounts of flooding.
