There is some positive motion to report in the saga of the Long Island College Hospital playground in Cobble Hill, which has been the source of much neighborhood discontent both in terms of the park’s dirty condition and broken playground equipment. This is an email from “Staff at Long Island College Hospital” with some updates about promised improvements:

1) We have started the power washing of the main park.
2) The problem with the drain has been resolved.
3) The repair parts will be delivered in the middle of August. These items are shipped from Finland.
4) We have established an e-mail address LICHPARks@….We will be posting signs in the parks announcing the e-mail address. This will be monitored daily (Monday through Friday)

Unfortunately, the full email wasn’t posted. It functions as a link through the BoCoCa Parents Group on Yahoo. If anyone knows the actual email so that people don’t have to go to the park, feel free to email us or post it in comments.
