Status
Plastic Works has been without power since Monday afternoon (10/29/2012). We cannot get any reliable information from Con Ed regarding when they will restore power. We have no phones, internet or email access. Cell phones work intermittently; however, recharging them is problematic. Gasoline remains difficult or impossible to obtain.
We will open as soon as power is restored; however, we may only be able to accept cash and checks until full communications are restored. Many of the local New Rochelle businesses that have power can not communicate with their merchant accounts. We appreciate your patience until all the problems introduced by the storm are resolved.
We hope you have survived Sandy with no loss of life or property, and our thoughts and prayers are with you!

North Avenue Bridge Replacement Project - Phase I
A major road construction project will commence this week on North Avenue near our New Rochelle store location. The first phase is expected to take 18 months and will likely cause traffic disruptions to anyone visiting our store. This is especially true if you rely on the Hutchinson River Parkway or North Avenue to travel to New Rochelle. The City of New Rochelle is posting information on the construction on their website. The current link is here. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience and patronage during this construction.
