A fascinating report by WNYC's Ilya Marritz on one of Williamsburg's newest real estate projects, "The Oosten" by the developer Xinyuan. Located on the waterfront and "filling an entire city block, it's the first large building erected by a Chinese company in America, without a local partner."

Drone helps save window cleaner stuck on high-rise scaffolding BY Chris Perez

Kind of cool use of a drone. We appreciate the use of such technology, especially if it can help to create a safer work environment for all window cleaners. Cheers to the "lifesaving drone."

More Latinos on Farms Move From Fields to Office By Tanzina Vega

The title says it all. At ResicomNYC, we invariably salute those individuals who persevere and lead by example on a daily basis. As Christopher Reeve said, “A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.”

In Ranking Subways, the #7 Is Number One By Kate Hinds

As much as certain Resicom staff members appreciate the Straphangers Campaign ranking the #7 train as king, those who reside in Queens say that on weekends, they either feel trapped in Queens or extremely limited in terms of traveling to other boroughs, especially Brooklyn. According to our Queens residents, it would be easier to travel to Montauk than to Prospect Heights.
