    The famous Coney Island Cyclone roller coaster was The famous Coney Island Cyclone roller coaster was shut down indefinitely after coming to a stop mid-ride last week. The 97-year-old wooden roller coaster at Luna Park was on its ascent on Thursday when ride operators took it out of service due to a damaged chain sprocket in the motor room. The city’s Department of Buildings “inspected and cleared the ride to open” a day before the incident, Luna Park said in a statement. Read more at the link in bio. AP Photo/Pablo Salinas
    Roughly 430 people attended a recent online inform Roughly 430 people attended a recent online information session about the Brooklyn Marine Terminal Project — a $95 million plan allowing the city to consolidate its control of a 122-acre site which runs along the Columbia Waterfront District and Red Hook between Atlantic Avenue and Wolcott Street. This was the first opportunity for the public to learn about the plan, heralded by officials as a means to transform the Brooklyn Marine Terminal into a modern maritime port and mixed-use site. The plan ties in with the city’s “Harbor of the Future” initiative. Read more at the link in bio. Photo: Caroline Rubinstein-Willis/Mayoral Photography Office
    Brooklyn-born Charlie Moss whose successful ad cam Brooklyn-born Charlie Moss whose successful ad campaigns to promote New York became household jingles, died in early August, New York Times obituary writer Sam Roberts reported on Friday. During New York’s 1970s financial crisis, Moss was the advertising executive credited with the “I Love NY” tourism campaign that was the fruit of group collaboration. The designer of that logo, Milton Glaser, died in 2020, according to a Times obituary. The “I Love NY” logo gained instant recognition and was credited with a boost in tourism that helped turn around the city’s revenue. Read more at the link in bio. AP Photo/Hans Pennink
    In a bright, colorful yarn shop in Bushwick, a cro In a bright, colorful yarn shop in Bushwick, a crowd of young Brooklynites gather with yarn and needles to discuss their favorite TikTok trends, restaurants, roommates and movies. Though a stereotypically “grandma” hobby, more Gen-Zers and millennials are knitting, crocheting and crafting.  Malone opened Cleo’s Yarn Shop in 2022 after building a successful yarn business with their mother in Santa Rosa, California. Cleo’s was originally located in a warehouse in East Williamsburg, about a 15-minute walk from the Montrose Ave. subway station. In July, Cleo’s reopened in Bushwick on Varet St., complete with a full cafe serving coffee, tea and pastries in vintage dishes.  Click the link in bio to read more. Photos by Mandie-Beth Chau
