Along a busy corridor in New Brunswick, New Jersey, dozens of workers gather inside temp agencies, where they wait for an informal network of vans to shuttle them to warehouses.
Many who are milling around here on French Street became eligible for COVID-19 vaccines more than a month ago, but few have secured appointments. One woman couldn’t afford to miss a shift. Another worried the side effects would make her too sick to work the next day, and 68-year-old Ramon Rosario said frankly, he didn’t know where to go. He qualified back in January as a senior citizen, but without a computer or steady internet access, he hasn’t been able to book an appointment.

UPDATED, April 19, 2021, 4:30 p.m.: The Gowanus rezoning is a go.
Judge Katherine Levine on Monday agreed to lift a temporary restraining order, allowing the proposal to enter the city’s seven-month approval process.
The City Planning Commission certified the neighborhood rezoning application Monday afternoon, officially kicking off the Uniform Land Use Review Procedure. City Planning Chair Marisa Lago called the move a “giant step closer” to building a more “inclusive” and “green future” for the neighborhood.
“The Gowanus plan is an antidote to the status quo, a status quo that has long put wealthy, amenity-rich neighborhoods under glass and out-of-reach for too many New Yorkers,” she said.
