Credit where credit is due??

earlier in the month I posted a diary ranting about the paving issues in this city and how it appeared that the "haves" were getting more than there fair share of street fixing.  

I noted that Washington ave and Melrose Ave were messes and needed to be fixed badly, whereas streets like Marion and South Pine were sparsely traveled and not in need of fixing, but were the first to be re-paved. To the city's (and DGS) credit they have done some nice work on both Melrose and Washington.  Has anyone seen other work that needed to be done completed (or being worked on)? Also, I have some neighbors in the Melrose neighborhood that are taking advantage of the grants provided by the city for the basement water issues in this area.  With all the bad things going on in this city right now, e.g. budget, police issues, landfill, etc. it's good to hear some good things...

Fred Dicker of the NY Post lives on Marion, and complained about potholes in Albany every day on his radio show for weeks.
