Bay Ridge Needs You on Saturday
The Pastor at the Fourth Avenue Presbyterian Church is the nicest man.
The church has had a food pantry for a long time and families actually go there to get what they need.
On Saturday, April 17th, Bay Ridge Cares is having a collection at the Presbyterian Church. Stock your car with some canned food items, pull up and Bay Ridge Cares will safely social distance and unload the items. (SO NICE)

A Million Dollars Was Given For An Office Renovation…But Not For a Government Owned Building
How come no one mentioned the office renovation that costs $1,120,000 ?
Over a million dollars for an office renovation?!!
When I saw it, I thought it was a mistake, so I refreshed the screen. You can see it here – choose capital funding and type in Brannan.
I’m not sure what type of renovation would have a $1.1 million dollar price tag, except if they are tearing down the building and putting up a new one. (And adding marble and gold to the building!)
Why didn’t Councilman Brannan mention this project?
The building hasn’t been purchased for the community, so I am not sure what happened here.
The building is owned by the non-for-profit group. Acris shows a churches name and NIA years ago, but now it’s just NIA.
This $1.1 million dollars is over the funding given for the programs. NIA also received this money:
Bay Ridge does not have a community center and it looks like this is the reason why!
If the building was government-owned, like this one on 86th Street, the use of over a million dollars for renovations would be understandable.
We are in a global pandemic, NYC doesn’t have money, but there is over a million dollars for an office remodeling? I don’t understand why Brannan would think this would be urgent when there are people having trouble just eating and living right now.

On March 29th, the man above punched a 61-year-old Bay Ridge resident in the face because the man asked him to stop playing with a cigarette lighter on the 69th Street train platform. (Story here) See news here
?WANTED for ASSAULT: On 3/28/21 at approx. 5:40 PM, south R train platform @ Bay Ridge Ave @NYPD68PCT Brooklyn. The suspect punched a 61 Y/O male victim on the face after they engaged in a verbal dispute. Any info call or DM NYPDTips at 800-577-TIPS. Reward up to $2,500. pic.twitter.com/ab8ZkIdamU

The NYPD shared this photo with the Daily News reporter on Sunday, April 11th. Why is there such a delay in getting that information to the public?
Here’s the strange part: The reporter said that the cops want the publics help. If they want our help, why wouldn’t they share that info right away.
The politicians in this area do not share information from the police. We have politicians tweeting stupid information about the governor, instead of alerting the community that there is danger in the area.
There was an assault at this station in late February (see here), heroin use in this station and now this!

Armed Robbery in Sunset Park – 59th & 4th Avenue
Around 8:00 pm, there was a robbery at gunpoint on 59th Street and 4th Avenue.
The Citizen App described the perp. He has a tattoo with the name Sylvia on his left forearm.
Apparently someone knows the perp because they identified that he lives in The Bronx.

Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights business owners should use social media as well as Lioni’s does.
They post pictures of their sandwiches in the afternoon. Even if you don’t like coldcuts and sandwiches, it’s the time of the day when people start thinking about dinner. So if you sell food, post a picture on instagram and tag with #BayRidge #DykerHeights #Brooklyn
