Another Melrose FIRST - Leading the City and State in Being Green!

Once again, Melrose leads the rest of the City of New York in being green.  Last Saturday at local High School Alfred E. Smith, the installation of a 1,400 square foot green roof began in what is considered to be the "...first officially approved Green Roof at a public school" according to NY1.

Congratulations again to Melrose residents for continuing to be the leaders in the Green Movement in the city and statewide!

"Pride" of Melrose

Meet Pride, one of the four horses that help cops patrol Melrose.  Pride has been "proudly" galloping the streets of Melrose for some time now and is 16 years old.  Pride and Hennessey, who is 8 years old, can usually be seen around Melrose or at other times around Arthur Avenue.  It was great to finally get to meet these two beauties up close and personal.

Local Melrose resident, gets up close and personal with Pride.
