Office Suites for Rent in Bay Ridge
The offices at 8212 – 3rd Avenue had an Office Suites for Rent sign on it. You can see the offices here.
There are five separate offices on the first floor, plus reception area and kitchen and bathroom.
There is also parking for one car in the back of the building.
The office was designed for a law office, but can be used as a medical or dental office as some of the rooms have hot and cold water “hook-ups” and waste lines in the walls.
The building is alarmed with central station response.

Why Justin Brannan Would Be the Worst Thing For Coney Island….
It would be terrible for Coney Island to have Justin Brannan as a leader.
Why? The head of the EDC, the Brooklyn Borough President, Antonio Reynoso and Justin Brannan have all been lobbied by Thor Properties concerning the Coney Island Casino.
None of these people mentioned they were lobbied by Thor about the casino.
Coney Island has been building up their community for years.
Putting a casino in Coney Island won’t help the people in Coneey Island, who are invested in their community.
It will hurt some of the people who will lose their money gambling.

Housing Town Hall in Bay Ridge – Sunday 3/12
On Sunday, March 12th at 2:00 pm, there will be a Housing Town Hall at Good Shepherd Church 7420 4th Avenue.
They wrote: “You’ll have the opportunity to learn about how to fight injustices by your landlord and/or housing court, as well as how to apply to the NYC Housing Lottery! We’ll be joined by our constituent services specialists and housing attorneys to answer your questions.”
Strangely, this Housing Town Hall on Bay Ridge is being run by Marcela Mitaynes, the socialist Assembly representative of Sunset Park.
Neither Senator Gounardes or Councilman Brannan has ever held a Housing Town Hall for the community.
.
Mitaynes is busy this weekend. She is doing this workshop about unemployement in Albany today – see here.

RIP Seamus Labradoodle (Paws Truly)
Sad News……Seamus Labradoodle died earlier this month. See the message from his owners here.
If you were lucky enough to meet Seamus at Paws Truly on 3rd Avenue, you knew you met a very special dog. For many years, he would be at the store when we stopped in.
Seamus was the mascot for the Bay Ridge St. Paddy’s Day Parade. Everyone clapped and cheered when Seamus and his owner would ride in the car during the Bay Ridge St. Patrick’s Day parade.
Tom shared photos of Seamus here.
