An Octagon building resident reports:
Main st flooded behind Coler across from Costco – water all the way over the road. Water across sidewalk promenade to grass in the picnic park in front of us. All in all it seems right now exactly like it was when we woke up to Irene and Cuomo said waters currently at Irene level. I heard but didn’t see that lighthouse point completely flooded.
A Riverwalk Building resident reports:
Just looked out – the River is already lapping over where the Pier was.

Watch Hurricane Sandy from Roosevelt Island resident Mark Lyon’s live webcam looking north from Manhattan Park showing Octagon, East River and Manhattan skyline. Also, resident Trevre Andrews provides this webcam facing Southtown’s Firefighters Field and Queensboro Bridge. Another resident reports:
Just like last time (when the irene hits) i would like to mention you about the logs on canine training park near to riverwalk bar and grill. They are still there, the psd dint move that yet.
when i called the roosevelt island public safety they told me they belong to nypd…

I have been in Colorado the last few days, unable to get back to Roosevelt Island because of cancelled airline flights and have been covering Hurricane Sandy with the help of residents sending me reports and pictures. Please continue to do so and above all, STAY SAFE!!!!!!!!
