Inside Malone’s Chophouse in Bay Ridge
This is where Malone’s Chophouse will be on 3rd Avenue and 96th Street! (Info)
They gutted the entire inside of both Embers and Vinnie’s Butcher shop. The two rooms are attached and the fresh wood floors and walls looks great. (More pics tomorrow)
It’s exciting to see the start of someone’s dreams coming together in Bay Ridge!

Senator Gounardes Doing the Usual – Fighting with Conservatives Instead of Helping Anyone in Our Community
Tonight, Senator Gounardes used social media to go back and forth because Kassar wrote about Iwen Chu. (See here) Get ready for two years of Gounardes doing nothing more than this on Twitter:
Step down Andrew Gounardes and stop using our seat to play politics, gerrymander and push lobbyist-backed bills.
On Thursday, December 1st, Transalt will show their hold on Gounardes. (Seen here)
Transalt doesn’t know that Gounardes has let vehicles remain on Poly Place in Bay Ridge, year after year. Andrew hasn’t had the vehicles removed here.
In June, Gounardes stood in front of the community and said the vehicles would be removed and they are still there.

Kassar Wrote About Iwen Chu – She Tried To Make It About Bigotry & Sexism
Jerry Kassar, head of the NYS Conservative Party wrote about Iwen Chu in his column. Kassar criticized Chu’s bad campaign.
Yet, Kassar and Chu have a lot in common. Both remained silent when elected leaders advocated for lobbyists, rather than this community. (Gounardes here – Golden here)
Iwen Chu tweeted a response to Kassar.
Chu tried to assert that Kassar was attacking her because she was Asian or a female politician, but Kassar didn’t enter that territory. Chu knows a Conservative vs. Democrat quarrel isn’t newsworthy.
Kassar wrote about Iwen because he knows he can make elected Democrats flip out with three sentences. They fall for it every time instead of just ignoring him. Jerry does it to make the Republicans/Conservatives laugh:
Iwen Chu refused to debate her opponent before the election. She didn’t want voters to hear from Vito LaBella. LaBella is a strong speaker and advocated in Brooklyn for many years. The sad part is the two knew each other. Chu watched LaBella lead and win for Brooklyn families and thought it was okay to do a dirty campaign against him.
All I have seen from Iwen in the past is she took photos with Gounardes after he voted to reform bail laws. Not once has Iwen said that Gounardes should adjust the laws, so repeat offenders can’t hurt people.
Iwen Chu has not supported female politicians running for office in Brooklyn. When Mathylde Frontus ran for office, we didn’t see Iwen Chu step up for Frontus. Newspapers reported that the male politicians had a “backroom deal.” The deal tried to squeeze Frontus out of a position. Why didn’t Chu help Frontus? (Info)
We didn’t see Chu come out in support of a female Comptroller either. The female candidate was a lot more qualified for the position. (Info) Why hasn’t Chu supported female politicians?
This year, when Gounardes and Frontus voted to gerrymander Brooklyn, Iwen Chu never said a word.
The new district lines for District 17 benefitted Iwen Chu. Districts aren’t supposed to be made for politicians; they are supposed to be made for a community.
I learned about gerrymandering from Andrew Gounardes years ago, when he was a man who had integrity.
District 17 was created to remove Republicans from Gounardes’ district, so he was guaranteed a win. It wasn’t about our community – it became about Gounardes waterfront district. Not one paper covered a story on the money Gounardes accepted and who may be interested in Brooklyn’s waterfront.
For the next ten years, young people in our community will have no reason to vote for a senator in Bay Ridge – the district is rigged and there is no reason to have an election, other than for Gounardes to collect more campaign contributions.
Iwen Chu never spoke out about the failure of Gounardes and Brannan to act for Asian residents in our community. We didn’t see a pepper spray distribution for Asian women here in Brooklyn – like this one in Manhattan.
In March 2020, right before the pandemic broke out in Brooklyn, Chu was with Gounardes at a Restaurant on 8th Avenue. (See photo below)
Gounardes claimed people weren’t going to a restaurant on 8th Avenue because they were racist. Why didn’t Iwen Chu tell Gounardes that people feared dying from the pandemic that was happening in China. No one corrected #TeamDimSum.
When an Asian grandmother was set on fire, Gounardes didn’t do anything. A rapper came to Brooklyn because politicians failed to take action. (Info) Iwen didn’t speak out against Gounardes or any other politician in Brooklyn then either.
Finally, when the Nathan’s deal happened, everyone in this community was upset, except Iwen Chu, Peter Abbate, Andrew Gounardes and Justin Brannan. They were all silent. (Info)
In the coming year, I estimate Iwen will vote with Gounardes and Gianaris 90% of the time.
In January, we’ll see what bills Senator Chu introduces. Since Irene Chu worked in a politician’s office for years, she knows how a bill is written and there won’t be any delay in advocating for the community. (Right?)

Hand-Carved Wood Ornaments in Bay Ridge
A wood carver lives in Bay Ridge and he is selling his very cute hand-carved Santas and ornaments online. (Here)
The BKLYNWhittler shared the link to his site on social media and I thought I would share his unique ornaments. Plus he has free shipping so this might be something nice to send to a relative out-of-state!

More photos of the babies here
‘
Police were doing traffic stops in Queens on Saturday. They saw an emaciated Great Dane and her puppies. They charged the man with twenty-three counts of animal abuse. (News)
In 2020, the same man ran a puppy mill on Bergen Place in Bay Ridge. (News)
Bergen Street residents did everything they could to stop the puppy mill. When they received no help from Senator Gounardes, Councilman Brannan and the police, the Bergen Street residents went to the news to get help for the dogs. (See here)
Then Ridgites protested outside the home where the dogs were being held. Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis came to Brooklyn for the protest. The police came and the man moved away with the dogs. (Info here)
In 2021, the man’s new landlord in East Flatbush contacted the police. (See here) The dogs were taken away from the man — see video here The newspapers reported an assault. (See here)
The man’s landlord went to the news because she didn’t want this to happen to anyone else. Info and photos here
Did the Brooklyn District Attorney’s office drop the case?
The Brooklyn District Attorney’s office said there was no records related to that case. (Source)
Councilman Robert Holden isn’t afraid to stand up for animals. Holden wrote, “People like this should never see the light of day, yet we release them back to the public to continue their crimes.”

This Death Could Have Been Prevented if Andrew Gounardes Wrote the Bill for NYC and Not For Lobbyists
Senator Andrew Gounardes’ red light camera bill made lobbyist happy.
If Andrew Gounardes actually corrected the bill, like he said he was going to do, repeat offenders wouldn’t be able to drive. This driver in Queens wouldn’t have been able to kill anyone on 83rd Street and 153rd Avenue.
