September 22, 2024Huge Party at Dyker Beach Park – Huge Setup
Last night, some people set up a huge party at Dyker Beach Park – Bay 8th. They had tents, flood lights, barbecue and loud music.
Neighbors heard the music blasting at 1:30 am. Community Board 10 and 11 said that the police were watching this park, but they aren’t because the setup for this party would have been seen earlier in the night.
By 2:00 am, neighbors heard the NYPD helicopter overhead and there were several police cars outside the park to shut down the End of Summer Party.
Dyker – elect leaders who care and will help you with this. Stop electing the same group of men who aren’t doing anything for you!

September 21, 2024Saturday Afternoons at Mussels & More
Late one Saturday afternoon, we were driving home on 5th Avenue. As we approached 80th Street and 5th Avenue, we heard great music and a lot of people singing at Mussels and More.
I said to Lee, “Pull over I want to go sing with them.” Lee thought it was a private party and didn’t want to stop. But it was a Billy Joel song, so I convinced him. Mussels and More has such a great vibe on a Saturday afternoon!

September 21, 2024More Garbage Cans Are Needed on Shore Road
Vicky’s photo
Vicky shared the photo of Shore Road above. Why can’t there be more garbage cans on Shore Road?
Donna D. shared this photo:

This area is particularly busy. Yes, people stop there and clean out there car sometimes and it fills the can. Don’t hate on a mother or father, who bring their family to Shore Road and take a few minutes to clean out their car. Why can’t there be more cans?
When you see more garbage around Bay Ridge, it’s because someone had the cans removed from the area. You don’t see empty cans and a dirty area!
