For may years, City Island was part of Westchester County. It was linked to the US mainland by a toll bridge in 1873, which later became a free bridge when the area was annexed by NYC in 1895.
Most agree that limited access to the island has discouraged dense development, and therefore the island has retained its small New England fishing village atmosphere. Numerous restaurants, marinas, marine supply stores, yacht clubs, art galleries and antique shops all play a major role in the island’s economy.
If you were fortunate enough to spend quality time with the late and great Captain Ed Sadler, you would probably agree that he was a remarkable man. His son Richard Sadler is also a good guy and a boat captain, as well as the person who lived and prayed with Ed until his last breath. Dick asked City Island Images to invite everyone to the opening of his photography exhibit at The City Island Nautical Museum this weekend, which he is dedicating to the memory of his dad, the late Captain Ed Sadler.

NYC council member Jimmy Vacca and his staff have noticed a disturbing trend at the Throggs Neck Houses and Pelham Parkway Houses developments in his district...one of the most basic necessities of living, adequate lighting, was being neglected at an alarming rate.
During one informal inspection at Throggs Neck, they found over 15 lights in vital locations around the development completely burnt out. This is not only a quality-of-life issue, but also a pressing public safety concern.
The United Nations Human Rights Council has now adopted a resolution demanding that the Syrian Government cease all violence, protect its people, and put an end to widespread and systematic abuses such as the killing and persecution of protesters.
