HARLEM, NY — The city has a message for Harlemites griping about rats in the neighborhood: put a lid on it.
Lidded trash cans will be coming to Harlem as the first step in a strategy to crack down on rat infestations citywide, the Sanitation department announced Wednesday with a massive new report.
But this perk for Harlemites battling against the rats will come with a downside for drivers: the loss of about 150,000 parking spots citywide.
