Patty’s Meat Market on 7th Avenue Closed
Eddie, the butcher closed Patty’s Meat Marker at 7917 – 7th Avenue. People are sad about the store closing because it was open for many years and now they need a new butcher.
For those of you looking for a new butcher, head down to Bay Ridge!
Faico’s is on 11th Avenue and 66th Street and B&A is closer to 7th Avenue, but it’s the Summer and this is a vacation week – so head down to Anthony’s Butcher at 7324 – 3rd Avenue in Bay Ridge. Lee loves them!
At Anthony’s Butcher, they can order whatever you want and they make a lot of great things. You can call in your order 718-748-4184 and they will have it ready for you. Plus a nice family runs this store and their food is always fresh.

Redistricting Brooklyn Meeting 7/29
When it was voting season, politicians didn’t stop calling, mailing stupid flyers, ringing our bell or e-mailing us!
Now that they are planning to redistrict Brooklyn without us.
Not one politician has invited us to the Redistricting Brooklyn Planning Session. Did you get an invitation or flyer about it?
Even weirder, NYC is having these meetings in the middle of the Summer while people are away.
Gothamist says redistricting equals POWER. See here
To speak at the redistricting meeting or give testimony, go here and choose which one you want in the blue box.
What will I be writing to them?
I was thinking something like this:
Dear NY Redistricting Commission: My local politicians didn’t tell us about this meeting. I bet they are going to give testimony, so I hope you will disregard their testimony and continue to leave Bay Ridge, Brooklyn 11209 with the current section of Brooklyn and Staten Island. We aren’t able to get help from local representatives and getting rid of the Republicans in Staten Island isn’t going to make things any better. Please just even out the districts with boxes around each community (rather than half blocks or pick and choose constituents on blocks due to their political party). One of our state representatives is accepting money from the other areas, as well as PAC money (see attached).
To submit a redistricting map, go here to upload a map.
NYS expects to have the redistricting done by January 2021.
Some Democrats want the area to be rezoned with Sunset Park, the UWS and Soho, which makes no sense at all. If you are a Republican, your district leaders should have contacted you and asked you to participate.
Senator Andrew Gounardes has been taking donations from Park Slope and a lot of PAC money, so you want to speak out against this as both Democrat and Republicans are needed in this district.
Gounardes is accepting money from a PAC that supports bail reform:
Of course that’s not the only PAC money!

Bay Ridge’s Racetrack is Open in 2021
It’s Summer and the racetrack is wide open in Bay Ridge.
Did you hear those cars roaring through the neighborhood last night?
No one is talking about it now because they are afraid they might know the person speeding!
We have laws that even a local elected doesn’t follows, so why would visitors to the area follow them?
