November 14, 2021Brooklyn Army Terminal Vaccination Center

This is a very easy site to get vaccinated at because of the free parking.
It’s open 24 hours 212-228-1000.
The vaccination site is not in the Army Terminal buildings – it’s outside at trailers. When you park in the lot, walk out and walk up the street. The entrance is on 58th Street and 1st Avenue – the address is 140 58th Street. You will see fencing with signs on it. The vaccination site is inside the fencing.
A temporary site was built on site with the entrance on 58th Street.
If you check Google maps, it’s next to the Ford of Bay Ridge Service closer to 1st Avenue.

November 13, 2021Fire on 84th Street in Bay Ridge

Around 9:30 pm on Saturday night, there was a fire in a kitchen on the 6th floor apartment at 465 – 84th Street (between 4th and 5th Avenues) (Video)

The tenant was not home so no people were hurt – thank God.
Sadly, neighbors shared that several cats have died. What awful news for the owners to come home to….. : (

November 13, 2021Pet Adoptions Outside of My Natural Pet

Today New York Animal Care and Control had a truck in Bay Ridge outside of My Natural Pet on 5th Avenue in Bay Ridge.
People were online in the rain to get animals in the mid-afternoon (Hours after the event began).

Many pets were gone from the truck.

Maybe a smaller no-kill adoption centers should be available in communities like outs (rather than one large kill shelter in each borough)

NYC has a contract with ACC for the next 32 years.
Justin Brannan should have sounded the alarm about this contract, but he was #silent. There were no press releases and Brannan did not stand up for dogs and cats in NYC.

November 13, 2021Malson’s Jewelry Store is Moving Down The Block

When we saw Malson’s signs saying they were moving, we thought it was because the store was robbed several times over the past few months. (See here)
But Malson’s Jewelry Store isn’t leaving 86th Street – thank goodness!

They are moving down the street (towards 4th Avenue) next to Bank of America.
Malson’s Jewelry will be in the T-mobile store at 442 – 86th Street.

November 13, 2021Nathan’s Was Knocked Over – The Poor Neighbors of The New School

New York School Construction Authority posted this photo.
We can really see how close this school will be to the apartment – the poor people who live theree!
The area around this school looks blighted because not one politician will tell the NYC School Construction Authority that they are required to maintain the exterior fence.

The fence has been covered with graffiti for months and Senator Gounardes hasn’t had the anti-graffiti team, that he claimed to have around election time take care of it.
Doesn’t Brannan and Gounardes and their staff members pass this place and see what a mess it is? Or do they live somewhere else?

One of the strangest things about this new school is that Community Board 10 did not ask for a transportation safety report BEFORE this school is built.
It’s a terribly dangerous intersection and no one seemed to be concerned about safety because they don’t have children or just don’t care.
The community was not allowed to have input on this building at the Community Board 10 Meeting. It was a done deal that went down.
In other communities, the community board works a bit differently. I’ve attended other community boards and non-board members are allowed input when there is a discussion of development.
Of course everyone knows the huge price tag on this building (See here) and that another “school property” was purchased from the same owner on 5th Avenue. The Community Board 10 Meeting for the second school was strange. (See here)
