3 Turkish Drinks to Try @ Stevie’s in Bay Ridge
Photo from Here
Anne, a Bay Ridge resident who shares photos on Instagram @the59thstbridge shared three Turkish drinks that she purchased at Uncle Stevie’s on the corner of 87th Street and 4th Avenue.

1) The glass bottle in the front is Ni?de Gazoz’s raspberry soda. This must have been good because she drank it before taking the photo.
2) Watermelon/ strawberry juice – the container says it is mostly apple juice and is 72 calories for a glass.
3) Ginger lemonade

People Keep Donating Items Outside Closed Salvation Army in Bay Ridge

View this post on Instagram
A post shared by Simone Rene (@simonerenebrklyn1)

The Salvation Army Family Store on 3rd Avenue and 68th Street in Bay Ridge closed quietly last month.
Most people don’t realize it is closed, so they continue to leave items items outside of the store. Simone Renee captured the photo above after people rummaged through the boxes and bags of donated items.
Signs have been placed on the store telling people that the store is closed, but the signs have fallen off, so the landlord took down the awning and made a larger sign to deter people from dumping:

Bay Ridge Rocks – Cute Caterpillar in the Wild
Someone took a lot of time in care in making this adorable caterpillar because they knew it would make someone smile!
We all oohh’ed and ahhhh’ed over it, but we put it back because we know this caterpillar is going to bring a child in our neighborhood pure joy when they find it – which looks like this!
We have seen two children scream with delight on 3rd Avenue when they found a painted rock!
Nice work, Bay Ridge Rocks!
Bay Ridge Rocks will be at the Fort Hamilton Library on 95th Street and 4th Avenue on Friday, August 19th, if you want to paint rocks with them!

Goodbye Mr. Chips in Bay Ridge…Or Maybe Not?
Everyone had been noticing that Mr. Chips hasn’t been open.
We heard that Dandy Lion had moved in, but unfortunately, they won’t be taking over the diner either.
Yesterday, we saw the small diner was put up for sale.
Maybe someone will take it over and bring life back into Mr. Chips Restaurant again? If you are interested in purchasing it, contact Jim here.

Justin Brannan Thinks Brad Lander Paying Even Less Property Tax This Year is Equity

Councilman Brannan likes to make graphics to pat himself on the back, but they don’t accurately portray what’s going on in NYC.
The old Brannan would have laughed at a politician throwing breadcrumbs at a community that has been overcharged in taxes for years.
Brad Lander already had low taxes. The rebate makes his property taxes under $4000 for the year.

Why would NYC give a property tax discount to people living in Brad Lander’s district when the NYC Property Tax Commission has already ruled that they are paying too little tax? That doesn’t make sense.
Senator Luis Sepulveda wrote Senate Bill S9399. (Seen here)
Assembly member Stacey Pheffer Amato carried the bill in the Assembly. (Seen here)
Is Brannan saying he worked on Sepulveda and Amato’s bill?
Strangely Tori Burnhas, the Chief of Staff of Senator Gounardes said at a Community Board 10 Meeting that Gounardes worked on the bill. We don’t believe that is true because we have seen the tax rebates for the rest of NYS. (Seen here)
If Andrew Gounardes worked on the bill, why would NYC home owners receive so much less than the rest of New York State?
In districts where taxes are a lot higher in NYC, why didn’t the politicians do something to help?
We have been paying higher taxes for too long because these two friends aren’t representing the community well, but acting like they have.

R Train in the Morning With Weed Smokers
PRESS PLAY
This morning I got to show up to work reeking of weed thanks to these two gems.

I want to thank the @NYCCouncil, @ericadamsfornyc, @NYCMayorsOffice, & @NYSenate. Without excusing, advocating & encouraging behavior like this, days like today wouldn’t be possible. pic.twitter.com/OE7972SfR2

Some people are smoking week on the R train to Manhattan in the morning. The trains are empty so they don’t think it will affect the few passengers in the car.
