Residents of New Brighton on Staten Island are still upset about the winter blizzard that dumped more snow there than any other NYC borough. They describe plowing as poor, with streets buried for days and no plows in sight, a situation many say only improved after media attention. Borough President Vito Fossella notes Staten Island’s car dependence makes residents harder to reach during storms, unlike walkable Manhattan or parts of Brooklyn. City officials have since acknowledged mistakes in the snowfall response, though reactions vary across the city. Queens Borough President Donovan Richards praised the cleanup as relatively effective, acknowledging occasional misses but arguing complete blacktop isn't immediate everywhere. The winter was described as unlike anything in nearly three decades, deepening a belief among Staten Islanders that the borough is overlooked. Residents say real change will come only if City Hall prioritizes Staten Island in snow removal going forward.
