Blizzard Can't Stop NYCPM's Team!
On Saturday, January 23, 2016, the Blizzard of 2016 dumped more than two feet of snow on New York City, the second-worst snowfall accumulation on city records. On Sunday, NYCPM's intrepid maintenance team swung into action -- making sure that the College and Foot Center of New York were once again accessible. After cleaning the sidewalks to perfection, the team made its way to midtown to break down the College's exhibit at NY16, the 2016 Podiatric Medical Clinical Conference in midtown.
In the photo above (left to right), Brandon Lopez, Raymond Cruz, Alex Sanchez and "Wiz" Boykin celebrate the storm outside the College. Below are before and after pics!
