May 1, 2026Politicians Want to Keep Cutting the Red Tape for Developers – Which Hurts Communities Like Ours
We see the developments on 5th Avenue in Bay Ridge are able to proceed without doing any environmental or street studies because the red tape was cut for developers.
These studies used to be in place to make sure that communities weren’t being harmed.
Governor Kathy Hochul saying she wants to help them speed up housing projects more won’t help our community.

April 29, 2026People Riding Citibikes From Manhattan to Bay Ridge Can’t Find Parking Spaces in the Docks!
Brooklyn cyclists are complaining that it is impossible to park Citibikes in Bay Ridge because the racks are almost always full.
They open the Citibike app and find only a few empty spots on the Citibike charging dock. Meaning: Very few people in Bay Ridge are riding to work on Citibikes.
Cyclists have complained to Citibike Rack Support many times (1-855-BIKE-311), but the situation has not improved.
When this happens, Citibike is supposed to manually redistribute the bikes or give bike angels points to cyclists who move bikes to other racks. But Citibike isn’t doing either of those things!
Some Ridgites are trying to negotiate a dock spot with other Citibike users in the area:
What a mess! NYC should hold Lyft responsible, but they won’t because the lobbyists win in Bay Ridge. (Andrew Gounardes made a video for Citibike, even though he uses his car to get around and go to work).

April 28, 2026Child Seriously Hurt Afterschool Yesterday – 81st Street Between 14th and 15th Avenue
Yesterday after school, there was a terrible accident on 81st Street between 14th and 15th Avenues. A child was hit by a car. He was bleeding from his head.
The driver has a dash cam.
Residents did what they could to help the boy.
An ambulance brought the boy to the hospital. The boy was conscious, so hopefully he will be alright. *Prayers* for his recovery.
Our community does not prioritize children any longer. I grew up around adults who understood that they had to keep children safe. Our government has other priorities over children.
People who live on 81st Street have requested a speed bump, but were denied by NYC. Lobbyists aren’t pushing for speed bumps, so its not a priority.
It’s over 24 hours since this child was hurt and Senator Andrew Gounardes has not even mentioned this accident. Gounardes is too busy posting videos of himself on social media. He says he is in contact with the police, but he isn’t. He’s just not connected to this community.
Lobbyists and lobbyist’s wants are the priority in this community. We need to change that!
