“The NYC Department of Transportation unveiled i “The NYC Department of Transportation unveiled its first draft of design possibilities for the reconstruction of the “Central” portion of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (BQE) at a standing-room-only meeting held in Downtown Brooklyn Tuesday night.   BQE Central is the decrepit section of the highway running from Atlantic Avenue to Sands Street, which includes the triple-cantilever underlying the Brooklyn Heights Promenade. The 1.5-mile strip is controlled by the city.” Read the rest of our “SEE IT: NYC reveals preliminary designs for BQE rehab” article, which is linked in our bio.
“RED HOOK — Eight people suffered minor injuri “RED HOOK — Eight people suffered minor injuries Tuesday in a fire at a New York Police Department warehouse in Red Hook that houses DNA evidence from crime scenes as well as cars, e-bikes and motor scooters, police and fire officials said. The fire at the Erie Basin Auto Pound, a low warehouse situated atop a long, curving breakwater on the Brooklyn waterfront, broke out at around 10:30 a.m., FDNY Chief of Department John Hodgens said.” Read the rest of our “8 hurt in Red Hook fire at NYPD warehouse where evidence is stored” article, which is linked in our bio.
“One of the perks of living or working in Downto “One of the perks of living or working in Downtown Brooklyn is easy access to the inaugural holiday market at Brooklyn Borough Hall, presented by Urbanspace. The market, which resembles a little village snuggled within Borough Hall Plaza near the corner of Joralemon and Court streets, features roughly 50 local artisans selling handmade crafts, clothing, antiques and other gift possibilities, along with food and beverages. (We’re told the hot chocolate is killer.)” Read the rest of our “Inside Brooklyn Borough Hall’s first-ever holiday market” article, which is linked in our bio.
“It took concerted efforts by local businesses, “It took concerted efforts by local businesses, the 84th Precinct, Councilmember Lincoln Restler, the Department of Consumer Affairs and this newspaper to finally remove a rogue Christmas tree vendor that had been squatting on Montague Street, using a tax permit belonging to a local Key Food and breaking other laws. A story in the Brooklyn Eagle played a role in getting action after shining a spotlight on the vendor, bringing unwanted attention.” Read the rest of our “Illegal Christmas tree vendor finally evicted from Montague Street” article, which is linked in our bio.
