December 24, 2021Cute Man Walking on 3rd Avenue in Bay Ridge

Look at how cute this guy is! A lot of people were calling greetings out to him and he was responding.
He was walking on 3rd Avenue and I had to take a picture!
I have no idea what the object at his feet is. There wasn’t anything on the street.
Behind the man is a NOW HIRING sign at Empire State Bank on the corner of 87th Street if you need a job or know someone who needs one. They don’t have it listed on their site, but you can call 347-695-9040 or fax: 718-748-2585

December 23, 2021THE CLOUDY Smoke and Convenience Store is Opening in Where Mr. Tangs Was

The Cloudy Smoke and Convenience Store is opening at 7523 – 3rd Avenue – where Mr. Tang’s used to be.
I didn’t realize there were so many smokers in Bay Ridge that we would need this many smoke shops. Tanoreen Restaurant is next to this shop.
Down further on the Avenue, a new smoke shop took a position next to an existing smoke shop – see here.

December 22, 2021Popup Covid Testing Site 5th Avenue & 68th Street

A NYC Health and Hospital popup site is on 5th Avenue and 68th Street. They are open Monday – Sunday, 9 a.m. – 7 p.m.
A lot of people were on line to get tested because they have the rapid tests there. It wasn’t as crowded as the 86th Street Covid-19 testing site (that one looped around the block past Modell’s when we pasted today).
Also they allow you to pre-register on the site here so you don’t have to do it when you get there. You still have to wait on line though.
