All that trash around LIC

Clipboard

Ever notice how many trash facilities are near LIC? Probably not. But here is a map.

MOST concentration of trash transfer facilities are around the Newtown Creek.

Notable because Upper East Siders have been complaining lately about the first and only proposed transfer station in Manhattan — near said UES. Hmm. http://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/01/science/earth/01garbage.html?_r=1&pagewante…

Not very convincing protest — there are about 59 scattered through city neighborhoods already. Zero in Manhattan.
