November 6, 2019Marco Kepi Standing Up for Bus Riders
Marko Kepi is running for Nicole Malliotakis’ seat. And here he is pointing out the problem at the bus stop at 10 pm in Bay Ridge. That’s a crazy line!
There are more than enough elected representatives who should be dealing with this problem.
Sadly, they are doing surveys and overriding the Community Board so no one is dealing with this.

November 6, 2019Chemical Smell in the Air in Bay Ridge
The air smells strange tonight in Bay Ridge, like burnt rubber or a chemical smell.
There was a building fire on Ovington and 4th Avenue around near 11:00 pm and everyone in the area and in Dyker Heights is smelling it too. A lot of fire engines answered the call. Go FDNY!!

November 5, 2019Goodbye Brooklyn Market Parking Lot
If you shop at Brooklyn Market (now called Key Food Food Emporium, but we still call it Brooklyn Market), you will be sad to hear the news that the Parking Lot across the street is going to look like this in a year or two:
Get the details about the new building on 3rd Avenue and 81st Street here.
The residents on 81st Street may not be too happy as it looks like they are going to receive a lot of shade.
Also notable: 32 residences will be created ($$$), but none have parking. How are developers able to continue to build without having any parking?
