Update 2: Meteorologist Nick Pittman said the sound was caused by a meteor that burned up in the atmosphere!
Update 3: Channel 4 concurs with the meteor, but they don’t know if it caused the sound/shaking.

July 15, 2024Alexa Aviles is Explaining The City of Yes Housing Opportunity on Wednesday, July 17th
Alexa Aviles represents parts of Dyker Heights and Bensonhurst in NYC Council after redistricting.
While Alexa Aviles supported the City of Yes, she pushed back on it because she wanted companies like Amazon not to be able to setup a delivery warehouse without applying for a special permit.
On Wednesday, July 17th from 6:30 – 7:30 pm, Aviles will have an online meeting to explain the City of Yes Housing Opportunity.
Councilman Justin Brannan hasn’t offered anything like this because he doesn’t communicate well with the community as a whole (just certain Facebook groups).

July 14, 2024Russian Manicure Nail Salon Opens in Bay Ridge
Photo: Jeffrey Desmond
2 Mood Nails opened at 7620 – 3rd Avenue. You can make an appointment here.
The sign has the cost of the gel manicure and pedicure:
If you are thinking, “Oh no – not another nail salon in Bay Ridge.” You don’t know nails. Women who do, will be glad that a Russian Manicure place opened in Bay Ridge.
Russian manicures became more popular because of Tiktok, but women have been getting them for many years.
From: 2 Mood Nails
What’s different about a Russian manicure? It is a manicure that lasts and looks natural. It’s more time consuming because it is a very detailed manicure that takes care of the nail and the cuticle, so it looks perfect.
