I can hear a massive amount of helicopters. I live not far from where people are gathering for

the march for Eric Garner.

The weather is cool and overcast and it seems ok for a march.

The busses will take people over the bridge and the march will be in Northern Staten Island.

Granted, NYC TRACON is a busy corridor, but I wonder if similar flight restrictions have been imposed over SI that were imposed over NW STL?
