June 22, 2023The Narrows (Movie) is Filming in Bay Ridge

Joseph Donofrio shared that he is having fun playing Big Sally in the movie The Narrows.
I missed this:

The Narrows was filming at The Bridge Pharmacy’s old location on 3rd Avenue and 90th Street.

People were admiring the old crates that they saw from the front window of the Golden Gate store. When they were done filming, they put the crates and a lot of bottle of pasta sauce outside of the store for people to take.
Great pictures here and here.

Super cute backyard dancing video (Here) Short video at Postiano’s Restaurant. (See here)

June 21, 2023NYPD Police Officers in Dyker Heights Arrested Thieves Breaking Into Cars
About 30 cops in Dyker by Saint Bernadette’s. Rumors are it was an attempted home invasion. @JustinBrannan we are less safe since you got elected.@queenoftheclick @JEM_NYC @BrianSullivan96 @NYPD68Pct pic.twitter.com/W7jE0N6iXr

There were many police officers were on 13th Avenue and 82nd Street near St. Bernadette Church in Dyker Heights around 9:30 pm.
Residents saw the police had one man in cuffs. The Citizen App shared that a man was arrested for breaking into a vehicle. (See here)
The police search the area for more people. Dyker residents shared videos of the helicopter hoovering over the neighborhood for 45 minutes. (See here) People were worried because it was a huge response by the police for guys breaking into cars – even K9 units were there!
Politicians didn’t communicate with the community to warn them. Alec Brook-Krasny is the Assemblyman and Andrew Gounardes is the Senator. (Update: Brook-Krasny was in Albany – see here)
Finally, Councilman Brannan shared that an off-duty fireman called 911 on guys trying to break into cars near 13th Avenue. Four arrests were made.

Did the police finally take the “visitors” to Dyker Heights seriously because of the off-duty firefighter reporting it? Maybe this will send a message to the visitors.
Thank you to the off-duty Firefighter – Dyker Heights hire him to do this regularly. Thank you for the arrests NYPD.
Update: On the news, they said two cops were injured while trying to take a person into custody.

June 20, 2023Tacos Casa Flowers Opened on 5th Ave & 93rd St.

Casa Flowers opened at 9300 – 5th Avenue – it’s across the street from Staples.
Their sign isn’t up yet, but they have their name in the front window:

On the board outside of Casa Flowers, they advertise hamburgers, fries and cheesesteaks. Kelly’s Tavern is next door, so they may be trying to attract those customers.

Their menu is on Seamless. (See here)
Good luck to the new owners!
Taqueria El Puente used to be at this location.
