Give Your Neighbors a Break Lonestar!
Lonestar has been mentioned at Community Board 10 meetings for several months. Their neighbors are complaining about noise from backyard bar — which extends three yards. Lonestar should have taken steps to assist their neighbors! C’mon Lonestar Give them a Break!
What’s the problem? Lonestar’s backyard and adjacent backyards are being used by the bar. See the picture which includes three outside televisions below residents windows. (in this picture it looks like there are five televisions and a bar in the backyard) WOW. I would hate to be live there.
Where is the NYPD officer for Bay Ridge? Why haven’t the police done anything to help the residents? Is it legal for the adjacent property’s backyard to be used for the bar, especially since none of those property owners applied for a license?
Here’s the bar in the daylight (and here) and the grill. Apparently, the backyard is even used in November so residents don’t get a reprieve. It’s interesting that the building department would allow those structures up against the wall where fire escapes are, but hey I don’t know much about outdoor electricity. Someone living over a bar has to expect some noise, but I wonder if residents realized they would get a lot of smoke from the grill under their windows.
Lonestar’s building is marked with the X. They are using the backyards of the two buildings on the left (the canopy belongs to them). But the pictures on their website are very telling.
Next month, Community 10 will be voting on this issue with the backyard bar. Lonestar’s owners should have gone out of their way to show respect a commitment to their neighborhood. Their neighbors should be able to have peace in the night and on the weekends.
