Your free copy of the Norwood News awaits you at your local supermarkets, restaurants and stores along the northwest Bronx.  This edition is chocked full of some heavy stories that include a move by Mayor de Blasio that raised eyebrows in the northwest Bronx–the re-hiring of Emily Lloyd for commissioner of the city Department of Environmental Protection.  Lloyd resumes the role amid criticism she was responsible for allowing the Croton Water Filtration Plant spiral out of control.  Be sure to check out the front page story.

Also on the front is a story of yet another supportive housing proposal set for the northwest Bronx, already saturated with plenty of supportive housing buildings when one compares it to other parts of the borough.  Reporter Hayley Camacho delves into the proposal by Praxis Housing.  And finally, check out an interesting piece from reporter Shayla Love on a graffiti artist who’s drawn the hand of God so to speak at one Norwood street corner. All this and plenty more for to sink your teeth into.
