As a security guard at Lenox Hill’s Ramaz School, Dwight Johnson is constantly surveying the neighborhood. The Ramaz Upper School, located on 78^th street between Park and Lexington Avenues, sits directly on the northernmost border of what is considered Lenox Hill.

For the past nine and a half years, Johnson has served dutifully as one of the school’s main security guards. He provides not only security for the children attending school, but also a friendly face to say goodbye to as the students go home for the day.

At his post, Johnson is extremely vigilant on 78^th street, and is well aware of many of the happenings around Lenox Hill, especially at nearby Lenox Hill Hospital, a hotbed of activity.

Johnson is also extremely in tune with the more mundane aspects of Lenox Hill, which can be the most telling of any possible conflicts. He knows the routines of the residents he sees everyday, like when they leave and return from work, at what time they walk their dog, and whether or not they accompany their children to and from school.

He also knows the general atmosphere of the neighborhood at any given time, and can easily tell if something interesting is happening or about to happen. If anyone is going to reveal a current conflict in Lenox Hill, it’ll be Dwight Johnson.
