Evening Roundup: Workers Sue Contractors They Blame for Legionnaires Outbreak, Hurricane Erin Brings Coastal Flooding Possibilities, Bronx Trains Left Out of Signal Repair Plans and a Bronx Green Space Becomes Unofficial Trash Dump

NYC NOW

About this episode

Two Harlem construction workers are suing contractors they blame for Legionnaires’ outbreak. Plus, the National Weather Service says much of New York City, Long Island and New Jersey will be under a coastal flood watch beginning Thursday night, thanks to Hurricane Erin. Also, the MTA is leaving the Bronx behind in a key effort to speed up subway service. And finally, the parks department has used a city-owned Bronx lot as an unofficial garbage dump for decades, and locals say the smell is unbearable. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
