you still cannot take that chance. It’s up to the municipality to be on top of these things.

Number 22 I don’t think anyone was working there. It seems like it was closed and someone opened it and put garbage down there. Number 23 It could very well be that Sofer in Far Rockaway but not sure.

As a talmid of R’ Sofer’s I can fondly remember the multiple shabbosim I spent in his house playing with his children.

Hopefully they find a small measure of nechama.
