Sunset Park Pastor Spreading the Word
Ying Tan shared the photo of the Pastor on 6th Avenue and 58th Street spreading the word this morning! (Here)
Ying Tan also recognized like small churches like this may be struggling to stay open.
While the area was very familiar to me as a child, I didn’t recognize it now. If you are from OLPH, this is diagonally across the street from the Parish Hall.

Dirty Streets on 8th Avenue and 86th Street – Susan Zhuang Held a Town Hall
People in Bensonhurst are angry that illegal vending is happening on 86th Street. Councilwoman Susan Zhuang held a town hall meeting.
People complained about 8th Avenue and 86th Street near Bay Parkway are the worst. (Story and video)
Pix News revealed that store owners were illegally renting the space in front of their shop to these vendors! (Info)
People are upset that vendors are cooking on the street. One resident said that the meeting, “Do something about it – don’t talk.”
The amount of garbage is substantial. One woman said she was embarrassed about where she lived because the streets are so dirty.
Years ago, Ari Kagan had the area cleaned up. The vendors returned and he had to have someone clear the area consistently.
Councilwoman Zhuang said that she wants to set up one area where people can sell items. I am surprised she didn’t clear the whole street like Kagan did.

Some Justice for Faridun Mavlonov – Arrest Made
Leopoldo Nash Montoya has finally been charged with murder and attempted murder of Faridun Mavlonov. (Info) Thank God!
Leopoldo was in Panama and authorities were able to bring him back. (See news)
Faridun Mavlonov was 15-years-old when he was shot on July 17, 2023 in Bensonhurst. He died on the street. Even Mayor Adams came to his funeral. (See here)
For almost a year, his Faridun’s family had to wait for his killer to be captured. This doesn’t bring back their son, but maybe their healing can begin.
