Mayor Eric Adams took a victory lap at the seedy “Broadway of the Bronx” Wednesday, one week after the city launched a crackdown to rid the “Hub” of trash and junkies — although the effort is looking more like a Band Aid than a cure. One block from Adams’ press conference at Roberto Clemente Park on the success of the cleanup effort, zonked-out junkies were spotted passed out right outside the park, including one man sleeping it off on top of a trash can and another hunched over with his pants down. The Post blew the whistle on the drug-plagued area between Melrose and Mott avenues, where more than 300 storefronts and 50 commercial properties co-exist with passed-out junkies, used needles and trash strewn around their businesses.
