e. On September 9, 2025 and on many occasions prior to and after that date, Ms. Leffmann encountered a portion of the sidewalk on Bancroft Avenue between 140th Avenue and 141st Avenue (1516 140th Avenue) that was inaccessible and caused her difficulty and discomfort because a section of the concrete sidewalk is cracked, improperly patched with asphalt, with landscaping encroaching into the PROW.

At that location, there is also a hole in the concrete sidewalk that not only causes her difficulty and discomfort but also caused her to fall on September 10, 2025.

At that location, there is a stop sign on the sidewalk which causes the width of the sidewalk to be narrower than three feet. h.
