Community's Champion to have Street named After Her
BRONX, NEW YORK (BRONX NEWS)- A woman who fought for her community will be honored with a street sign. Longtime Community Board 12 District Manager Carmen Rosa passed away in March after a long battle with cancer. Mayor deBlasio on Monday signed legislation renaming East 229th Street & White Plains Road "Carmen Rosa Way." The sign bearing Rosa's name will be in front of Community Board 12 where Rosa worked for so long. A date for the sign unveiling has not yet been scheduled.
