The Humidor in Bay Ridge
The cute painted window of The Humidor 9212 – 3rd Avenue, Bay Ridge’s cigar store and lounge.
See pictures of your neighbors enjoying their cigars at The Humidor here. Women go here too.
You have probably seen this place many time (or at least smelt the cigars as you passed). Many people go here to get cigars for special occasions and gifts.
If you want to look around inside the shop, swirl your mouse around on the 360 degree room here and move through to the back of the room – click on the door to enter the humidor in the back (so you can see the cigars)

March 26, 2018Senator Golden’s Response Is Too Little….
Update 3/27/18: Senator Golden’s office issued a statement that this employee no longer works at his office. Story here and here
The NY Post: State senator’s aide compared student protester to Hitler
“In a Facebook thread, Testaverde was unrepentant when criticized for the hateful content he was sharing. After a man pointed out Hitler killed Jews and the comparison was “disgusting,” Testaverde replied that Hitler “had to start somewhere.”
*The Facebook post is bad, but it’s the staffer’s response which is very concerning. He doesn’t see anything wrong with what he wrote.
Daily News: NY Senator Marty Golden‘s Aide Compared Parkland survivor to Nazis
Bklyner covered the story as well.
I remember this staffer having a problem a few years ago as well.
