Spooktacular Building 79th Street in Bay Ridge
The corner of 79th Street and 3rd Avenue has some super spooky decorations. These pictures can’t do them justice.
On a breezy afternoon, these ghosts move back and forth in the most eerie way possible. The building owner hung these in a way which allows their movement to be super creepy (in a good Halloween way).
When someone told me that there was something special on 79th Street, I went to see them, but missed them because they were on the second floor. The corner business is The Pour House.

October 29, 2022Law Office Sign Hung on 5th Ave. in Bay Ridge
When the Arab American Association recently took over the Bay Ridge Animal Hospital building at 6803 5th Avenue, I thought they took the two floors of the building since they were coming from such a large place.
I know the building well as I took my pets to that vet years ago. I guess they didn’t need a lot of room.
This week, Joudeh Kuller LLP hung a sign on the second floor of the building.

— Councilwoman Inna Vernikov (@InnaVernikov) October 28, 2022
Councilwoman Inna Vernikov shared that a Jewish teen was forced to say “Free Palestine” on video. See the NY Post article
The student was egged and physically attacked even though he said what he was told to say.
Councilwoman Inna Vernikov has done a good job on shining a light on hate. She’s meeting with administrators at Murrow High School.
We hope something can be done so this teen isn’t harassed due to his faith.
