    This has become a "hallmark" of Albany the last several years! Garbage and trash litter the city like a fresh winter snow storm dumped a foot of garbage everywhere! I find it absolutely disgusting that this is what "we" taxpaying residents have to put up with. When will DGS, the City, Commomn Council take these QOL issues seriously?

    DGS, what is the point in having an issue regarding double poles in the city on SeeClickFix, if all your going to do is cement them permanetly into the sidewalk? I reported 3 double poles on my block months / years ago and obviously nothing has been done to remove, address or remedy this issue; except make them a permanent fixture in front of my house! This makes Albany look like a 3rd world country!

    Thank you to our 6th ward common council rep for her diligent attempt in addressing and resolving this issue when I reported it months ago... NOT!

    National Grid placed several double poles last summer along Washington Avenue; a double pole IFO the old YMCA, and of course they left the concrete block they cut out of the sidewalk just laying there. They placed another one IFO 288 Washington Avenue, same situation, cut the sidewalk and left the concrete block on the sidewalk. Several years ago they placed a double pole IFO 308 Washington Avenue. These are all over this area of the 6th and makes this neighborhood look like a 3rd world country...
    I have attempted to have our new Common Council Rep. come and take a walk through this area of the 6th to see some of the issues that have plagued this area for years... To no avail!

    There is a 2010 Ford Escape parked IFO 293 Washington Avenue. It has no license plates on it and Albany Parking Authority has ticketed the vehicle for at least the last 6 weeks in violation of alternate side parking. Again, the vehicle appears to be abandoned and as I understand an unlicensed vehicle cannot be left on the street / public property. I called the APA, they referred me to APD, I called them, and was greeted by a very rude officer on my query today.

    Once again, DGS has not swept the SW side of Washington Avenue. I posted this last week asking you to please make sure this side of Washington Avenue was swept during alternate side parking... Once again you didn't! Washington Avenue is a complete mess from Sprague Place to City Hall... It's an absolute embarrassment not only for the City of Albany, but for the residents and homeowners that reside here... I don't think it's an unreasonable request for the City to regularly sweep the streets during alternate side parking. I'm getting really sick and tired of constantly having to report this issue... If there is a problem, FIX IT!

    GArbage left all over the sidewalk after regular trash pick-up. I assume it wasn't collected as it was just tossed all over the sidewalk...

    The tenant on the first floor of 304 Washington Avenue continues to place trash between the apartment buildings on a regular basis... Our normal pick-up day is Tuesday morning, she will continue to place garbage there until someone picks it up. She appears to be unable understand what day is garbage day... This is unacceptable and needs to be addressed directly with the tenant...

    Dear Corporate Code & Compliance... While I can appreciate the fact that Albany Property Management cleaned up the property, (albeit poorly.) They left all the refuse in plastic contactor bags at the curb. Now we all know you need to place this debris in paper lawn & leaf bags for pick-up.

    Today, I see you have placed a sticker on the bags indicating as such, however, that's not how Albany Property Management works. It will likely be left there for weeks to come, as they are terrible at managing properties. May I suggest that you place a call to them to clean this up, so "we" neighbors don't have to look at this for the foreseeable future...

    Once, again and again and again... This property continues to be a blight in our neighborhood. It is an absolute MESS. Trash all over the front of building, weeds 4 feet high, leaves from last fall never cleaned up. You can barley see the sidewalk leading to the front door because it's overrun with weeds... The steps are crumbling, creating a hazard for the tenants. Albany Property Management has no business in "property management" if they can't manage property... I'm growing very tired of constantly reporting this property. Where is "Corporate Code & Compliance" on this ongoing issue? 5+ years of constant complaints and very little resolution... Is it any wonder why we see neighborhoods fall onto complete blight and disrepair, it's embarrassing living near this property...

    Reporting this once again. Weeds are 4 feet high, trash scattered all over the front of property, leaves from last fall never cleaned up. I'm growing very tired of constantly reporting this property. It continues to plague this neighborhood, it is a disgusting MESS and diminishes the quality of life in this neighborhood...
  • 304 Washington Ave Albany, NY, 12203, USA - Central Avenue
    Once again, for the umpteenth time! This property is a MESS! The front steps are crumbling and the pavers are dislodged; creating a trip / fall hazard. The leaves from last fall have yet to be cleaned up. There is garbage all over the property. Many years ago it was Ploof properties that were the problem on Washington Ave, it's now just 304 Washington. The property managers, Albany Management Group, is clearly unable to maintain the property. It is a blight in our neighborhood and needs to be cleaned up ASAP!

    Whoever is lauding the City for the “great job” on the most recent snow emergency is totally off the mark... Washington Park roads are an absolute mess! Dozens of cars covered in snow from last week, not ticketed and obviously not towed. This goes the same for a large portion of Washington Avenue. Cars are still sitting in place; no ticket and not towed. I realize we’re in a pandemic, but that does not excuse irresponsible car owners / residents for not adhering to the snow emergency... They need to be ticketed and towed and held responsible for the mess they have left the city...

    This property continues to fall in disrepair. The front and side of building are a mess. Weeds and trash allover, the awning is rotting. The continued neglect of this property is a drag on our neighborhood and the community...

    Why can't the city address these issues on an ongoing basis with out "us" having to continue to report on the same issues on SeeClickFix over and over?
