As you may notice we have expanded the newsletter from a two-page to a four-page layout. The newsletter is quarterly and written to provide Merchants with information that can be helpful in their businesses. The newsletter is designed to serve as the main source of communication between the BID and the Merchants. This newsletter is also a vehicle for Merchants to speak to each other. If you have information you want to share in the newsletter or put on the website, call Medina at 718-974-2990. In order for the newsletter to stay viable and relevant, we need to hear from you.
