Worries mount over Sandy’s economic impact
Bensonhurst officials said they are growing increasingly concerned over the economic impact Hurricane Sandy is having on their community.
Marnee Elias-Pavia, district manager of Community Board 11, said the superstorm caused major damage to stores in the Caesar’s Bay Shopping Mall, located at Bay and Shore parkways, and that two of the largest stores, Khol’s Department Store and Toys R Us, have not been able to reopen.
The shopping mall is located at the shoreline next to Gravesend Bay.
