Mysterious Bay Ridge ‘bing’ attributed to Verizon-sanctioned liftboat
The elusive Bay Ridge “bing” may be a mystery no more.
A three-legged liftboat spotted over the weekend in the waters near the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge is the cause of the sound heard ‘round the hood, Councilmember Justin Brannan proclaimed Sunday, Nov. 18.
The noise — described by local residents as an ominous “bing” which mirrored the sound of “metal on metal” — became a hot topic on social media when Brannan, earlier this month, asked community members if they’d also heard the “mysterious bing.”
