Curbing blocks were deposited from trucks along the shore side of Waterview avenue yesterday.

 The comfort stations on the Stratford avenue bridge which were closed in the middle of winter due to freezing pipes, have been opened to the pub- lie. Complaints by East Side resi- dents and harbor men spurred the city officials to action.
