[WATCH] Does Your Local Deli Have a Backyard Rat Orgy Like This?

Fort Greene resident Liam Quigley recently spotted this horrifying image of about a dozen fully grown rats partying in some bags of trash outside of his local deli.

He then decided to loop in the New York City Department of Sanitation, who also looped in 311 via Twitter, yet ultimately, decided to break up the party himself.

Port Authority of New York and New Jersey Created a Promo Video Explaining the New Bayonne Bridge

Originally opened in 1931, the Bayonne Bridge was shut down in 2013 to undergo a massive project to raise the deck by 64 feet, allowing larger container ships and vessels to pass below. Ofter 4 years of construction, the new bridge has now opened to the public. In this short video from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, see how and why they did it.

This 80-second video explains the need to raise Bayonne Bridge's roadbed 215 feet.
