Scarsdale10583 jreceived this email Jeannie Mackler of Lenox Place who is closed into a dead end street by fallen trees and wires. Here is her story: We are completely locked-in on Lenox place with large tree across the entrance to our street (off Mamaromeck Road) Besides, the tree brought down all power lines. We have no electricity. The live electric wires are partially resting on our cars , and we were warned by firemen not to touch our cars nor to get close. The first and second houses (mine and neighbors) are seriously impacted. No calls back from Con Ed nor from Village Hall emergency services. But our Mayor did answer her personal phone line late in day and assured us that she would pass the message on to Con Edison. No phone other than cell and we are in the dark!
Today we received another email from Gary Trock, also on Lenox Place:
"I live at 11 Lenox Place. We are in the midst pf total devastation on our block. Not to diminish any other catastrophes in our town, there has been no response from the town of scarsdale in respect to what has happened on our street. Two cars have been crushed and has not allowed us to exit the street through Lenox Place. No electricity and most importantly all the wires are live which clearly restricts anyone from going near the front of the street. Help us on Lenox Place.. With 6 children under the age of 5 and no accessibility for any medical or emergency crew to gain access to the street, this is a travesty. Please react at least to our phone calls and help us stay out of harm's way."
(from Mackler) "No it's not our car lying under the tree. It belongs to homeowners on Mamaroneck Road who shouldn't have parked their car on our street."
