Brooklyn Today

February 22, 2019Feb 22, 2019 | Clear, 46° F

The Lede

Prosecution of low-level marijuana cases are down 98 percent, the alternative BQE plan will not block the Brooklyn Bridge view after all, and not all catholic schools are prepared to discuss sex abuse with students. Plus, presidential hopeful Pete Buttigieg speaks at the Brooklyn Public Library, the borough’s third boozy Taco Bell faces opposition, and former Dodgers great Don Newcombe dies at 92. Finally, freight trains could make a comeback in Brooklyn, and we recommend the best soups in the city.
