It’s a small storefront with counter-seating which wraps around half the place.

Congratulations to the new owner!

July 9, 2021Clean Up Owls Head Park in Brooklyn – July 12th

Monday, July 12th is “Pitch in at the Park Day.”
A new group called “The Bay Ridge Environmental Group” is joining the Partnership for Parks to clean up Owls Head Park at 6:00 pm.
I haven’t seen this group work on environmental issues – they seemed more like a political group. In March I wrote about them here because while they are vocal on Twitter, I haven’t seen them do anything here.
There has been talk on social media about there being only one very overwhelmed Parks Department Employee cleaning Owls Head Park. (See here) I have no idea if that is true.
Owls Head Park is on Colonial Road and 68th Street.
Bensonhurst Park also has a cleanup – see information here.

Lucali’s at 575 Henry Street. See other photos from Lucali’s here.
How do we know it’s Lucali’s?
The wreath on the door, the small grey table and the brick wall on the adjacent building is in the background of the photo.

There’s usually a line outside of Licali’s. You have to sign up early on weekends. If you intend to go there, (I believe) it’s still an all cash only business.


Jay Z grew up in Bedford–Stuyvesant.

July 8, 2021Bay Ridge Center Reopened and Received a Check

Hooray the Bay Ridge Center finally reopened yesterday! A few weeks ago, Brian Fox revealed that the Learning Bridges Program was put in this location and stopped the senior center from being re-opened. (See here)
On social media, The Bay Ridge Center showed $100,000 check from Senator Gounardes. (See here).
We haven’t seen other organizations thank him or show a big check. If he is giving out these checks why wouldn’t he share photos, like he did with this one?
Last year, Lee asked Gounardes how money was spent. His office took many weeks to respond and then sent a general list. The staffer (also a District Leader), Tori Kelly wrote “if you have any questions, let me know.” But Tori didn’t respond to my husband’s questions.
Assemblywoman Mathylde Frontus has been very transparent about how tax money is spent. (See here)
