STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — City Council Member Kamillah Hanks and Staten Island Zoo Executive Director Ken Mitchell joined the family and friends of the late Martin “Marty” Doherty for an street sign co-naming at the intersection of Clove Road and Glenwood Place in West Brighton.
The sign will now serve as a hallmark of Doherty’s life’s work for the thousands of people who walk or drive past the sign.
Doherty lived on Clove Road and was a neighbor of the Staten Island Zoo for more than 40 years.
Those in attendance were joined by representatives of the offices of District Attorney Michael E. McMahon and New York State Senator Jessica Scarcella-Spanton.
