June 30, 2023Senator Gounardes’ Office Moved to Carroll St.
After Senator Gounardes allowed over 20 illegal pot shops in Bay Ridge, he is moving his office to a rich area in Gowanas.
The new office is at 497 Carroll Street between 3rd and 4th Avenues. Suite 31. The area is more expensive than 5th Avenue in Bay Ridge.
This new location is strange because it was supposed to be for artists’ studios as it’s light industrial space. (Info here) It’s definately not where a politician would be accessible to the community.
There’s parking – each space cost $450 a month. Andrew Gounardes doesn’t say that he is a driver, but he is.
This area is off the beaten path, as if someone didn’t want to be bothered by people walking in the office. (Take a look)
It’s sad that Gounardes didn’t take a storefront in a poor area of his gerrymandered district, so that marginalized people could receive help.
Also, now there is another empty storefront on 5th Avenue in Bay Ridge.

Aphids are the tiny flies that are in swarms in certain areas of Bay Ridge for two weeks now. (NYT article)
They come due to warm weather. The New York Times believes the smoke may be a factor, but other articles say they are present where there is warm weather and humidity.
These bugs don’t bite.
If they are on your plants, put a few tablespoons of Dawn dish detergent into a spray bottle of water and spray your plants.

June 29, 2023Homeless Riders on the R Train – Justin Brannan Does Not Care
The forgotten people at the Bay Ridge 95th Street R train – they ride the train into Bay Ridge and back to Manhattan hoping to get some sleep.

They are all doing better than this man on the D train this morning. He doesn’t even have shoes on!
If these were your family members, you would want someone to help them.
