March 27, 2024Modern Lux Hotel in Bay Ridge (Formerly The Prince Hotel)
The Modern Lux Hotel in Bay Ridge is now available for people to reserve a room.
These hotel rooms look fresh and modern. They are charging $200 a night. (Take a look here) Booking.com will price match as well.
Pets are allowed at the Modern Lux Hotel – no extra charges.
Yes, this used to be The Prince Hotel at 311 93rd Street. (See old pic) Last February it was sold to a new owner. (Info)
In June, they were remodeling. (See here) The new owners did a nice job!
Several people wrote to me and told me that there were people outside the hotel at night. We’ve passed by in the afternoon and around 1:30 am on the weekend and the place is very quiet.
Councilman Brannan told residents on Facebook that the new owner is doing 1/2 hotel and 1/2 Air BnB. I couldn’t find the property on AirBnB.
Two things that were strange: There is no sign on the hotel. The lobby is very small. Some new, plush chairs were there, but we haven’t seen anyone behind the desk in the afternoon or evening.

March 25, 2024JJ Carty Park Ribbon Cutting Ceremony – 3/26
It’s strange that there wasn’t a huge announcement for the ribbon cutting ceremony at JJ Carty Park on 95th Street and Fort Hamilton Parkway.
The plans for the park were published in the newspaper years ago (See here) Andrew shared a beautiful picture of the park. (See here)
Over the weekend, there were a lot of children at this park.
Millions were spent on this renovation and they didn’t upgrade the bathroom.
A Zumba class will follow the ribbon cutting ceremony.
