More on Espada's District Office

Lots flying around Bronx papers and the blogosphere about State Senator Pedro Espada, Jr.'s district office, or lack thereof.

Here's what we know, courtesy of Espada's press guy, Steve Mangione (who also does PR work Espada's South Bronx healthcare centers).

Espada has negotiated a lease with property managers at 400 E. Fordham Road, a newly remodeled building near Webster Ave., which also houses Sears and a fitness center, Mangione says, and the senator will hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony to open the office in mid-April.

Calls to property managers to confirm this were not returned yesterday, but we'll keep trying.

More on why it's taken so long in the next issue of the Norwood News, which hits streets tomorrow morning. We'll preview the Web version of the issue here tomorrow morning as well.

    Espada is poor representation for the West Bronx. He didn't care to get his affairs in order and the district has been without proper representation now until mid April...He lost my vote.
