Last month, someone tried to break into Espresso 77 in Jackson Heights on 77 Street off of 37th Avenue.

It's a place where the locals gather, not just for the food and drink but they often have music and performances as well. 

A neighbor in a nearby apartment saw what was happening, yelled and scared the person off, but not before they broke the window. 

The store owners boarded up that area and then used the boards to create the "Jackson Heights Strong" mural.

 "Jackson Heights is a good community because we are all together, all different  ethnicities. We all work together, I feel like this is very very good neighborhood and powerful and we are all different cultures here. All immigrants here and they are very strong I feel like together," said Afzal Hossain, Espresso 77's owner.

Over in Manhattan, Angela Leung and her eight siblings grew up in the Rutgers House on the Lower East Side. Her siblings and her have joined their mom, who is with the tenants association, delivering lunches and dinners to the hundreds of elderly residents in their buildings.

Food is provided by the Tai Look Merchants Association and organized by a nonprofit called ReThink.

These are hot cooked meals being provided daily to homebound seniors who either can't leave, or are afraid to leave their apartments. 

They have been delivering anywhere from 100 lunches to 250 dinners each day.
