    A 53-year-old auto repair shop in Brooklyn Heights A 53-year-old auto repair shop in Brooklyn Heights — the last in the neighborhood — may have to close or move after getting hit with hundreds of 311 complaints for parking vehicles on the sidewalk during the workday, owner Eric Han told the Brooklyn Eagle.

Han has been told informally the complaints are all being filed by the same person, and feels the extreme number of them constitutes harassment. “We’ve been part of this neighborhood for more than 50 years and now this one guy is trying to destroy my entire business,” Han said. “All I want is a compromise to survive.” 🔗 Read more at the link in bio.
