Prince Joshua Avitto Way (Brooklyn)
Present name:None
Location:At the southeast corner of Stanley Avenue and Schenck Avenue
Honoree: Prince Joshua Avitto was only 6 years-old when he was killed in a public-housing project elevator by a knife-wielding maniac who fled the scene. Another child, 7-year old Mikayla Capers, was wounded but survived.. The attack, in the Boulevard Houses, focused attention on the issue of safety and security in NYCHA housing citywide. Surveillance cameras have since been installed at Boulevard and other housing developments in East New York. (Barron)
