Couple documents dying storefronts Old school.

Sequel to “Store Fronts” comes as local leaders are fighting to preserve streetscapes.

Photographers James and Karla Murray’s first collection of photos documenting classic New York City’s storefronts was first published in 2009. Since its release, Karla said, many of the businesses in the 336page book closed shop.

“Almost two-thirds of the stores in our first book are gone,” she told Metro, adding that some were even closing as the book “Store Front: The Disappearing Face of New York” was being printed. “It was a race against time to photograph them.”

The married couple found the same to be true as they prepare to release a sequel to their first collection, zeroing in on mom-and-pop businesses that they argue sustained local communities for years and that local leaders are fighting to keep around.

To be released in November by Gingko Press, the book again captures the death knell of many small businesses throughout New York City at a time when longtime shops turn into Dunkin’ Donuts in the blink of an eye.

In fact, the doughnut chain remained New York City’s top retailer for the seventh year in a row in 2014, according to a report by the Center For an Urban Future, with more than 7,200 stores.

Overall, the city saw national retail chains increase their presence throughout the city by 2.5 percent.

The influx of chains doesn’t surprise or scare John Vasilopoulos, who

Quoted

“Years ago, people could get 30-year leases or longer.

That doesn’t happen anymore.” Karla Murray partnered with friend Nick Castanos to buy luncheonette Cup & Saucer in 1988.

The retro storefront at the corner of Canal and Eldridge streets is one of the 200 featured in the Murrays sequel book, “Store Front II.” Inside, two eggs with potatoes, toast and an orange juice goes for $6.

Vasilopoulos, who knows the Murrays as regulars to the restaurant, said that the biggest issue businesses like his face by far is rent and shortening leases. Many of the businesses that have opened up around his stretch of Chinatown closed after

the leases of 10 or more years ran up, he explained.

The Murrays have found the same rings true for many of the owners they’ve interviewed for their books.

“It’s the same story, with the price of real estate going up and up,” Karla said. “Years ago, people could get 30-year leases or longer. That doesn’t happen anymore.”

After more than 20 years at the location, Vasilopoulos said the building just changed owners. He expects rent to double.

“It’s not easy to be in this kind of business,” Vasilopoulos said as his daughter rang up a customer

down the counter. “There aren’t too many places like ours left. Who wants to work 15 hours a day, seven days a week?”

But it’s businesses like Vasilopoulos’ that many local leaders are fighting to keep open. In March, Manhattan Borough President Gale Brewer laid out a series of proposals to help give small businesses a break. Chief among them, making rent renewals less combative between owners and landlords.

Just as important, Brewer told Metro, is preserving the look and feel of many of the neighborhoods that blossomed alongside local businesses. Part of the

zoning proposals her office laid out limits how long chain storefronts are along certain streets.

“People think affordable housing is tough,” Brewer said. “It is, but this is equally tough.”

Brewer said she plans to make sure any new buildings that offer commercial spaces don’t shut out small businesses in favor or big box stores.

Brewer said her proposed fixes are still being sorted out legally and logistically, with little or no pushback from developers so far.

That said, it might be too late, though, for some of the stores featured in the Murrays’ latest photography series. Since they began shooting for it in 2009, they said as many as 30 of the 200 stores are already gone.

But James Murray said he doesn’t see their books as a warning to potential business owners or even a tragic tale for those who’ve been forced to lock up their doors.

“How they continue to do well and soldier on in the face of monumental struggles — that’s what makes us happy.”

NYPD seeks man connected to two women found dead Hotels. Police want to talk to Joseph Danclair, who they say spent time with both women.

Make the Road tells Trump to hit the road A group of Latino immigrants rallied in front of Trump International Hotel and Tower Tuesday to protest against GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant statements. About 50 people stood with signs denouncing Trump. /MILES DIXON

New York City cops are on the lookout for a man who spent time with two different women who were found dead in separate hotels.

Investigators said Joseph Danclair, 36, is wanted for questioning in both cases.

Cops said they found the body of a 43-yearold woman at around 4:15 p.m. on Sept. 8 inside a room at the Manhattan Broadway Hotel on West 38th Street.

Police also discovered the body of a 35-year-old

woman inside the Bushwick Hotel on Bushwick Avenue on the evening of July 23.

Authorities declined to identify the manner of death of either woman, pending an investigation by the medical examiner’s office.

The New York Post reported on Tuesday morning that both women were found with trauma to their necks.

Danclair, who police said has more than 20 arrests to his name, is described as a black man with a medium complexion, black hair, brown eyes, 5-feet-6 and weighs about 170 pounds.

Police said Danclair also has two prominent tattoos on his arms: two praying hands on his right upper arm, and a rose on his left upper arm.

Staten Island

Police identify woman on bike killed by boat trailer Police have identified the Staten Island woman killed when a boat on a trailer detached and struck her as she rode her bike as 21-year-old Alexa Cioffi.

Investigators said Cioffi died at Staten Island University North Hospital after paramedics found her along Hylan Boulevard at around 4:30 p.m.

Monday.

A 22-year-old woman who was riding alongside Cioffi is

expected to survive.

Both women were struck by the boat, which police said was not properly secured to the 2015 Toyota SUV driving north on Hylan Boulevard.

Investigators said the car tried to overtake the two cyclists as they traveled in the right lane, crossing over into the center lane.

That’s when police said the trailer detached from the car and collided with the women, pinning Cioffi underneath.

Authorities said the driver, who was not identified, remained at the scene.

Alsu Ivanchenko, 35, faces up to two years in prison when she is sentenced on Oct. 27. She was convicted after a sixday bench trial of a felony aggravated cruelty to animals charge; overdriving, torturing and injuring animals charge, a misdemeanor; and a misdemeanor abandonment of an animal charge.

Prosecutors said that Ivanchenko did not seek medical attention for her 3-month-old Maltese mix puppy named Snowflake (who was later renamed Charlotte) when she suffered a fractured leg.

Ivanchenko instead hit Charlotte in the head, fracturing her skull in two places, which resulted in a traumatic brain injury.

She then put the dog in a black plastic bag and dumped her by the train tracks in Bay Terrace. Prosecutors said

Ivanchenko injured the dog because she did not want to pay the medical bills, and purchased a replacement dog named Pepper.

The injured pup was found by a good Samaritan and taken to a nearby animal hospital. She required emergency sur-

Ivanchenko surrendered ownership of both dogs when she was arrested.

Makeshift sailboat

Cuban migrants, and their dog, come ashore on Miami Beach A group of 12 Cuban migrants in a makeshift sailboat washed onto the tourist-lined sands of Miami Beach on Tuesday, police said.

The group included 11 men, a woman and a dog,

said Miami Beach police spokeswoman Vivian Thayer.

Under the United States’ “wet-foot, dry-foot” policy, Cuban migrants who reach U.S. soil on smuggler vessels without visas are permitted to stay, unlike any other nationality. Those caught at sea, however close to shore, are repatriated unless they need urgent medical

attention or can show they would suffer political persecution upon return to Cuba.

Images posted online by the Miami Herald showed a small rustcolored boat with a stained sail on the sand and Miami Beach’s iconic Art Deco hotels in the background.

A YouTube video posted online shows the make-

shift sailboat approaching the shore before its dozen passengers jump into the surf. They were met on the sand by people cheering and shouts of welcome.

“You guys made it, bro,” one bystander said.

A spokesman for U.S. Customs and Border Patrol, which screens migrants, could not immediately be reached for comment. REUTERS

Pope Francis to deliver most speeches in US trip in Spanish Languages. The Pope has been practicing his English but feels more comfortable speaking Spanish.

Pope Francis will deliver only four of the 18 addresses he will make during his forthcoming visit to the United States in English and the rest in his native Spanish, the Vatican said on Tuesday.

The 78-year-old Argentine pope had been practicing his English over the summer and had been expected to deliver more of his speeches and homilies in English.

But spokesman Father Federico Lombardi told reporters that Francis still felt more comfortable speaking Spanish.

Asked if there was any symbolism in the

fact that Francis had chosen to deliver so many speeches in Spanish, the second-most used language in the United States, Lombardi said, “I don’t think that is the intention. ... He feels more comfortable [with Spanish]. The real reason is the ease of expression and that he will have to make less effort.”

The pope used English for some addresses during a trip to Sri Lanka and the Philippines in January but had trouble with his pronunciation.

During that trip, he improvised in Spanish while an aide translated into English.

A Georgia high school violated local public school district policy by allowing a mass baptism of members of its football team on the school’s field.

A pastor dunked 18 Villa Rica High School players and one coach into a tub of water on the school’s field in a Christian baptism ceremony before an August football team practice.

“We are pleased that the school district has publicly affirmed its commitment to keep religion out of public school events, and concurs that the bizarre baptisms crossed the line,” Annie Laurie Gaylor, co-president of the advocacy group Freedom From Religion Foundation, said in a statement on Tuesday.

The group noted that a coach had invited Pastor Kevin Williams of First Baptist Church of Villa Rica to perform the mass baptism.

A videotape of the event was posted online.

The school is located in conservative Villa Rica, Georgia, about 30 miles west of Atlanta.

The foundation complained to the Carroll

County School District, calling the baptism a violation of the separation of church and state enshrined in the U.S. Constitution’s First Amendment.

Carroll County schools assistant superintendent Terry Jones said in a statement on Monday that the baptisms violated school district policy and that the district did not know the ceremony was scheduled to be held at the high school.

“We would hope that the staff members who participated would be reprimanded and carefully monitored in the future, and that the district would send out a memo reminding district employees that they may not engage in devotional events with students in our public schools,” Gaylor said.

She called the baptisms “one of the most egregious entanglements of church and state that we’ve seen.”

Williams told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that he had checked the school’s rules and thought there was no prohibition on baptisms as long as it was not school-sanctioned or held during school hours. REUTERS

Advanced Knee Arthritis Treatment Offers New Hope For Pain Sufferers In New York City

Nothing Spreads The Word Like Caring Doctors and Results - Knee arthritis sufferers have swarmed the OsteoRelief Center in Manhattan, NYC and Norhtern New j Jersey ever since word got out of their advanced medical procedure for knee arthritis

Viscosupplementation.

This all sounds great - in theory. But there is a BIG problem with this treatment.

Allow Me To Explain...

While doing research on this treatment, I traveled to amedical clinic in New York City, This clinic had an excellent reputation and I got to speak not only with doctors but with several patients who ranted and raved about the results.

Many said they had tried countless other treatments in the past... including viscosupplementation... but nothing worked until they had viscosupplemtation at this clinic.

I was skeptical, so I asked one of the doctors why. How could it be possible that the same treatment that did not work when done elsewhere... was getting results when done here?

His response was honest and a little shocking. And the bottom line was...

“All Doctors Are Human And Sometimes They Mess Up” I discovered that this treatment must be VERY

PRECISE. In other words, the doctor must be very accurate and actually get the lubricating fluid precisely into the arthritic joint space or the treatment will be rendered useless.

Many doctors do not want to admit it - but it is very easy to miss the joint space and alter the treatment results.

In fact, research shows that doctors doing these types of joint procedures without advanced imaging may miss the joint space as much as 30% of the time.

Technology To The Rescue Thankfully technology is solving this problem. How? It’s making doctors much more accurate and this treatment much more effective.

Advanced imaging is now available that allows doctors to actually see directly into the joint space and watch the treatment. Doctors can see, or check, if the lubricating fluid goes directly into the joint space - or misses.

The doctor knows if the applied treatment has been a success... or failure...

INSTANTLY.

The Difference Between Knee Arthritis Treatment?

Should Know... That Might Be Keeping You In Pain Here’s something incredible: I was able to watch many procedures actually being performed and I was shocked at how many times the doctor thought he had perfect placement... but the imaging proved him wrong.

step further to give their patients the best. They do not just use one form of confirmation during treatment - they use two in their “double confirmation” process.

This is to ensure patients get the best possible results.

Who Is This For? This treatment is not for everyone - but if you qualify you may be able to relieve some or all of your pain.

That’s why OsteoRelief has a an innovation for you...

The screenings fill up fast every month. If you do not call in time to get one this month, the expert will schedule you for next month.

It became clear to me that using this advanced imaging and “double confirmation” process just might be why the doctors at this medical clinic The best thing is: When get results when others were the procedure was not perfect not.

- because of the imaging - the What Results Can Be doctor knew instantly and was Expected? able to make the slight change necessary and achieve the results Like all medical treatments, they were looking for hitting the the results vary and can not targeted painful knee joint. be predicted. But many knee arthritis sufferers get dramatic “Double Confirmation” results. It is not uncommon for For Best Results patients to either postpone knee replacement surgery for years...

That’s why the doctors at this clinic have taken it one giant or even permanently cancel it.

This screening is no cost and there is no further Your Invitation obligation. The best thing about this screening for so OsteoRelief Centers offer a many is being able to breathe limited number of complimentary knee arthritis treatment screenings a big sigh of relief because you every month. These screenings are finally have hope to relieve a way for knee arthritis sufferers to your pain and get your life back get some of their questions answered Many of the treatments and see if they are a candidate for offered at OsteoRelief Institute one of the cutting-edge treatments are covered by many insurance offered at OsteoRelief Center.

Sponsored by Macy’s

Five people were charged in the 2013 death of a freshman at New York City’s Baruch College during a hazing ritual, police in Pennsylvania said on Tuesday, the first of 37 people who prosecutors may charge in the fatal incident.

Members of the college’s Pi Delta Psi fraternity brutally assaulted Chun “Michael” Deng, 19, during an initiation rite in Tunkhannock Township, in northern Pennsylvania, in September 2013 and delayed taking him to the hospital, contributing to his death, police said.

A grand jury had recommended that prosecutors

bring a variety of criminal charges, including thirddegree murder, involuntary manslaughter and aggravated assault, against 37 people and the fraternity’s national organization.

During a ritual called “the glass ceiling,” Deng was forced to walk blindfolded, carrying a 30-pound backpack, through a line of fraternity members who shoved him and threw him to the ground, according to police.

Deng complained about his head hurting but continued and was eventually knocked unconscious. He was transported to a hospital an hour later with a significant brain injury, police said.

Before taking him to the hospital, fraternity members contacted Andy Meng, the fraternity’s national president, who encouraged the group to hide fraternity items, police said. REUTERS

Suspect in fatal Mississippi campus shooting kills himself

A man suspected of gunning down a Mississippi college professor and of killing a woman he lived with shot himself as he was cornered by police after a manhunt, authorities said on Tuesday.

Shannon Lamb, a social science and geography instructor at Delta State University, killed himself after eeing Greenville police during a traďŹƒc stop, said Cleveland Police Chief Charles “Busterâ€? Bingham.

Lamb, 45, was being sought for the Monday killing of Ethan Schmidt, an assistant professor of American history at Delta State, and the earlier shooting of Amy Prentiss in Gautier, a town 300

miles away, authorities have said.

Lamb and Prentiss, 41, shared a home.

Bingham said it did not appear that the shooting victims knew each other, and police were still investigating the motives for both shootings. “We don’t know why this man did what he did,� he said.

Law enforcement said when police stopped Lamb’s car, he jumped from the vehicle and ran.

OďŹƒcers then heard a gunshot.

While on the run, Lamb had made statements to police that he would not go to jail, the Sun Herald newspaper reported.

45 6 Death toll rising in flash floods on border of Utah, Arizona

FDA orders Reynolds to stop sales of four cigarette brands

At least nine people were killed near Utah’s border with Arizona when flash floods triggered by heavy rain in nearby canyons swept them away in their cars, officials said on Tuesday.

Five people were missing, Washington County officials said, and one remained hospitalized after a “large wall of water” swept through streets around the small city of Hildale.

A flash-flood warning for the area remained in effect on Tuesday morning.

Thunderstorms were forecast in the afternoon. REUTERS

Reynolds American can no longer sell Camel Crush Bold and three other types of cigarettes, because the company has not shown they carry no greater health risk than similar products on the market before Feb. 15, 2007, regulators said.

The FDA move comes three weeks after the agency told Reynolds and two of its rivals that they could not claim their products are “natural” or “additivefree” without regulatory approval. Reynolds sells Natural American Spirit cigarettes through its subsidiary, Santa Fe Natural Tobacco.

Hewlett-Packard said it expects to cut 25,000 to 30,000 jobs as part of its restructuring and cost-saving efforts at its enterprise services business.

HP is splitting into two listed companies later this year, separating its computer and printer businesses from its faster-growing corporate hardware and services operations, to be called Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

“We’ve done a significant amount of work over the past few years to take costs out and simplify processes and these final actions will eliminate the need for any future corporate restructuring,” Chief Executive Meg Whitman said.

Cosby is defending himself against defamation lawsuits by Tamara Green, Therese Serignese and Linda Traitz in Massachusetts and the model Janice Dickinson in California, which were spurred by denials by the entertainer or his representatives of claims of sexual misconduct.

Elizabeth Olsen shoots down pesky dating rumors

Hiddleston and Olsen / ALL PHOTOS GETTY IMAGES UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE

All right, everybody, move along. Nothing to see here with this whole Elizabeth Olsen dating Tom Hiddleston thing.

They’ve been weathering speculation about just how close they are all summer, and the film in which they play husband and wife, “I Saw the Light,” just debuted at the Toronto International Film Festival, so they’ve been posing for a lot of photos. But no more reliable a source than Olsen herself says there is no hanky-panky going down.

“I mean, we definitely are friends and we’ve known each other for about four years. We happened to be at a restaurant at a wrong time having dinner. We all go out to dinner,” she tells Refinery29. “Well, apparently I’m dating Chris Evans, and apparently I’ve dated Jeremy Renner. …

I don’t react to it.” When asked very directly if she’s dating Hiddleston? “No,” she offers flatly. “I mean, people can think what they want to think.” So that settles that, right?

Devo singer is really sorry about his 9/11 wedding reception

Jerry Casale, bassist and singer for ’80s nerd-pop supergroup Devo, got married Friday — you know, 9/11 — which led to some unfortunate results. Casale tells Billboard that he and his wife, Krista Napp, chose the date for logistical reasons, and when a friend questioned it he

joked that he and Napp represent “the Twin Towers of love.”

The friend ran with the idea, including a Twin Towers-shaped cake and box cutters as party favors. “He thought it was some sort of transgressive sick humor, and the problem is it’s not funny,” Casale says.

ON GENDER-SWAPPING ROLES IN HOLLYWOOD Recently, Sandra Bullock was cast in the role that was originally George Clooney’s in “Our Brand Is Crisis.� Clooney told ET, “You’ll see this happening a lot, where they talk about how there aren’t a lot of great roles for women. The truth of the matter is there are plenty of these films where you can stop and look and just change the gender and make a really interesting film. So we need to start thinking that way.� This was after Bullock talked about not getting roles sent to her that she was excited about and actively looking for male roles that could be swapped.

It’s not as strange as it may sound. One of the best writing exercises I’ve ever done was to take a story I’d written and see if it was possible to gender-swap

In “Our Brand Is Crisis,� out Oct. 30, the character played by Sandra Bullock, with Billy Bob Thornton, was almost played by George Clooney. / WARNER BROS. PICTURES

the roles. If your character is fleshed out enough — a real person, fully realized — then it really shouldn’t take much effort.

That’s really the trick, isn’t it, writing people instead of gender? Of course, if the story is about the experience of being a man,

a woman, a transperson, etc., there are specifics that can’t be explored if the role were switched.

However, when it comes to most roles, what difference does it make? We’re all people. We all have fully realized lives. This would especially benefit women,

Native American Pow Wow & Festival

who are often written as ciphers: the girlfriend, the love interest, the sexy spy.

Look at your favorite film and see if it would make a difference if you changed gender. Yes, you could make “Mad Max: Fury Road� hero Furiosa a man. You could do it

with Max as well. Want to try the same thing with a character like Tessa from “Transformers: Age of Extinction�? You know, the one with pretty much no reason for being there other than to be sexy and passed from her father to her boyfriend? Or Teresa in “The Maze Runner�?

In the book, she’s fully fleshed out. In the film, she’s pretty much there to be “the girl.�

I hope studios are starting to realize that women go to the movies because we love them. We even go to action movies and geeky movies, and not just because our boyfriend or husband drags us there.

Even better? Guys will go see a film with a female lead. If Hollywood gives it a shot, they’ll discover what the rest of us know: Women are more than

sidekicks, hot chicks and set dressing.

So, female Doctor on “Doctor Who,� anyone?

When your parents are Sting and Trudie Styler, taking the stage is almost expected. But while 25-year-old Eliot Sumner is interested in pursuing music, she wants to distance herself from her famous parents and make her own path. Sumner released an album in 2010 under the name I Blame Coco but has since abandoned the moniker and is back with more original music.

Ahead of her show this weekend, we talk to the musician about how her sound has changed over the past five years, what she learned through collaborating with Robyn and the influences behind her lyrics.

What are your biggest musical influences?

Irregularity, conflict and coffee.

In your early days, you collaborated with Robyn. What did she teach you?

Robyn is great. We had a lot of fun performing together. Her energy and charisma [are] magnetic.

Follow Eliot Sumner on Instagram: @eliotsumner2. GETTY IMAGES

What is the last thing you Googled?

What was your first performance like?

Best ramen in St. Louis, Missouri.

It all happened very quickly. I worked myself up so much that the whole gig felt like seconds. I remember being very thirsty and nauseous. But when it was over, I was hooked.

How has your songwriting changed since you started?

My production skills have improved a lot in the last five years, so I think that gave me more space to create and write and edit and mix my own material.

Who do you follow on Twitter/Insta?

I follow a lot of techy accounts like Lava Cable, Salvage Custom and Critter & Guitari.

How did you break into Fashion Week?

Fashion Week newbie Seth Atwell is making a splash. The 6’1”, ravenhaired Toronto native models both men’s and women’s clothes — and he’s been landing some pretty big shows (hello, Hood By Air). We met Seth at a party for State, a new agency devoted to runway diversity, and asked him about his double modeling life.

I was here for an audition in April for a movie, and I was sitting in on open calls when I met with an agency and they hired me on the spot.

You model both menswear and womenswear — how did that happen?

What are you going to do once Fashion Week is over?

raquel.laneri@metro.us

Ever since I first started, this is what I planned on.

From the beginning, I’ve wanted to model as both a man and a woman. I can express both identities in

What have been the highlights so far?

This season I walked for Hood By Air, and I really loved the VFiles spring show.

I really want to start looking at volunteering opportunities at animal shelters in the city. It’s something that I’ve have always wanted to do, and after Fashion Week I’ll have a bit of time to do it.

The new ‘It’ shoe for spring

Rag & Bone on the go

Rodarte’s cheap chic

The hustle is real — said every multitasker, city dweller and working mom out there. David Neville and Marcus Wainwright’s spring collection seemed determined to solve the modernday dilemma of getting it all done while, you know, still looking cool.

How? Giant pockets, tweed pullovers, easy-yetelegant ribbed dresses, sexy, party-ready camisole slips — paired with high tops!

— and another comfortableyet-chic footwear option: tie-up platform sandals (think: if Aquazzura and Birkenstocks had a baby).

The shiny luxe bombers and cape-like parkas completed the look for the modern-day superwoman.

If you liked Rodarte’s glam-pirate-hooker garb last season, well, you’re gonna love what the Mulleavy sisters have cooked up for spring.

This time, the look is a bit more David Bowie mixed with some oldfashioned Victoriana: shimmery leisure suits, paisley velvet halters and glitter boots mixed with cobbled-together black lace dresses with ruffled high-necked collars and supershort hemlines.

Adding to the trashy fun: the cheesy ’70s soundtrack and spectacular light show that opened the presentation. It costs a lot to look this cheap — and irresistible. RL

Watch out, Kanye West — there might be a new shoe line dethroning Yeezy Season 2 as the It footwear of Fashion Week.

New York-based label Mansur Gavriel, known for its cult-hit and forever-soldout minimalist bucket bags, held its first-ever Fashion Week presentation — a pretty, Wes Andersonesque pink department store setup — on Monday eve-

ning to debut a new shoe collection.

The line consists of four styles, from suede mules to leather slides, and each comes in a variety of eyecatching colors, including cerulean blue, canary yellow, burnt sienna and cherry red, and five heel heights. Talk about customization. For bag hounds — we predict a waitlist for the new chic Circle bag. TC

Apartment Therapy for first-time patients Founder and author of the site Maxwell Ryan on the first steps to a “Complete + Happy Home.”

MONICA WEYMOUTH @MetroPhilly letters@metro.us

You could be forgiven for thinking that Apartment Therapy isn’t exactly beginner-friendly. For as warm and inviting

as the popular site is, it pretty much invented the genre of house porn.

Each featured space is more gorgeous than the last, right down to the perfectly curated clutter and suspiciously wellgroomed dogs.

That said, founder and “apartment therapist” Maxwell Ryan firmly believes that you don’t need a master’s degree in interior design to create a beautiful, inspiring space of your own. His latest book, “Apartment Therapy Complete + Happy Home,” starts at

the very, very beginning — before you’ve signed a lease or written a down payment check, when hanging that gallery wall is the absolute least of your concerns.

Want to go home to one of the swoon-worthy abodes featured in the book’s second section?

Start by taking Ryan’s first-stage tips.

Take it easy the night of the move. “Do not worry about cooking the first night in a new place,” says Ryan.

“Splurge a little and order in something tasty to help celebrate your first night in a new home. There is plenty of time to break out the cookware and dishwashing detergent tomorrow!” The one thing you should attend to ASAP? The smoke alarm. Check the batteries before you even put sheets on the bed.

THE ULTIMATE IN PRIVACY

Move smart

Moving should be exciting, not panic-inducing. To cut down on the stress, plan ahead — and plan for the worst. “Take an extra day or two off from work right around moving day,” suggests Ryan. “Last-minute packing will be less stressful and running errands for the things that you end up needing for the new place — that always crop up, no matter what — will be much more enjoyable when you aren’t rushed or exhausted after a day at work.”

big red flag for renters?

When the apartment looks nice, but the building’s common areas are in disrepair. “This can mean that only the cosmetics of the space are being kept up, but the maintenance of what you can’t see might be lacking and potentially cause problems,” says Ryan. If you’re buying,

take a good, long look at both the block and the area. “Think about the health of the surrounding neighborhood, not just the piece of property you are considering,” he cautions. “How do the homes around the home you might buy look? Are there more than one or two for sale? Are the businesses close by ones

Although moving is a great opportunity to explore your personal style and create a beautiful living space, don’t rush anything. “You want to take your time and shop thoughtfully,” says Ryan.

“It’s always best to live in a place for a bit before making any major design decisions or purchases, so you aren’t tempted to start scooping up things impulsively that might not make you happy long term.”

The old Domino Sugar refinery will soon look like this. / REAL DEAL

Brooklyn’s (next) boom Developers are moving deeper and deeper into the borough.

Take a good look at the Brooklyn skyline, because what you see won’t be there for long.

Fueled by a frothy economy and unrelenting demand, developers hit the gas on residential projects over the past 18 months. Overall, Brooklyn development topped 41.6 million square feet — second only to Manhattan — spanning nearly 600 projects and 45,359 apartments, according to The Real Deal’s analysis of building permits and offering plans filed between Jan. 1, 2011 and July 31, 2015.

Hudson Companies dominated the borough’s list of the most prolific developers by square footage. The firm filed plans for just over 2.71 million square feet since 2011, including 2,307 units spread over 14 projects. The largest, Gowanus Green, is a planned mixed-income village on 5.8 acres. Plans call for eight towers with 774 rental and condo units.

Meanwhile, David and Jed Walentas’ Two Trees Management, the developers behind the $1.5 billion redevelopment of the old Domino Sugar refinery in Williamsburg, clocked in at No. 2 with just over 1.96 million square feet across seven projects with more than 2,200 total units.

“In Downtown Brooklyn and Boerum Hill, you walk down the street and

Expect construction projects to multiply in Brooklyn. / REAL DEAL

you see so many holes in the ground compared to 12, 18 months ago,” says Andrew Sasson, a director at Eastern Consolidated.

“It’s not just residential; there are hotels coming up and office projects as well.”

The next wave Although it might seem like Brooklyn’s building boom has been in effect for a while, it’s expected to go into overdrive in the coming years. A recent report by residential brokerage City Realty said that residential development in Brooklyn will hit a 10-year high in 2016, with about 5,000 new apartments hitting the market — up from 2,700 this year.

Roughly 22,000 new apartments are slated to come online in the next four years, according to City Realty’s tally. The largest concentration will be in downtown Brooklyn, (6,400 units), followed by Williamsburg (4,300 units) and Greenpoint (3,008 units).

Bad news for would-be buyers, though: The boom is still years away. The residential development scene is still dominated by rentals. A TRD analysis of building permits earlier this year found that just 8 percent of Brooklyn’s pipeline — some 1,900 units — are planned condos.

Prices for development sites, which in prime neighborhoods are $350 to $400 per foot, are rising. And industry players are predicting an uptick in condo development in the next two to three years as developers are priced out of the rental market. Indeed, the number of new Brooklyn condos is set to double, from just under 1,500 this year to more than 2,600 in 2016, according to Corcoran Sunshine Marketing Group.

Zero consistency MLB. The Yankees hardly look like a World Series contender as of now.

The Yankees look as though they’ll be playing postseason baseball as they’re up three games in the AL wild-card standings. Just getting into the playoffs is the main objective in today’s MLB world, of course, so whether the Yanks get there via a division crown or by becoming one of the two wild-card teams does not matter.

We’ve seen time and time again that anything can happen in October, but the Yankees, at this juncture, are anything but a favorite to win the American League.

The Yanks caught a literal bad break with Mark Teixeira, as the slugger was enjoying an all-time

bounceback season before going down with a seasonending shin fracture. Greg Bird has filled in admirably at first base, but is nowhere near the threat that Teixeira is at the plate. Bird has five homers since Aug. 13 but is hitting just .232.

“I mean, honestly, I’m not trying to fill anyone’s shoes,” Bird told the NY Post earlier this month.

“I’m just trying to help the team win, and do my job.”

Typically, World Seriesbound teams are clicking on all cylinders come midSeptember. But the Yankees have made their fair share of blunders lately.

Yanks manager Joe Girardi plugged in a pinch runner for Alex Rodriguez in the eighth inning of a 9-5 extra-innings loss to the Blue Jays Sunday. Rodriguez, the Yankees’ best hitter this season, was unavailable when his turn in the order came around again in the 10th inning.

The Yankees have also gotten nothing out of leadoff hitter Jacoby Ellsbury of late. Ellsbury has just five total hits in the entire month of September and has not homered at Yankee Stadium since Aug. 6 against Boston.

PAD?

People over age of 50 that have a history of diabetes or smoking and other peripheral artery disease risk factors, such as obesity or high blood pressure, have a greater risk of having PAD. The good news is that PAD can be easily treated with our fast minimally invasive technique.

PAD can be recognized by these symptoms.

If you’re experiencing these, CALL US TODAY!

Patriots (1-0)

Chiefs (1-0)

Tom Brady wasn’t rusty.

He celebrated the lifting of his suspension with four touchdowns against the Steelers, in a game that never seemed in doubt for New England. Questions about their defense will remain, after they allowed 464 yards.

Kansas City was hoping for a revitalized passing game after last season and they got one Sunday. Alex Smith threw three touchdown passes, two to tight end Travis Kelce, who had 106 yards receiving on the day, and the Chiefs held on late to beat the Texans.

Packers (1-0)

Cardinals (1-0)

Colts (0-1)

With no Jordy Nelson, Aaron Rodgers found receivers to get the ball to Sunday, much as he has in the past. James Jones was the largest beneficiary in Nelson’s absence, catching two touchdowns against the Bears.

Carson Palmer displayed why he’s the key to the Cardinals success every year. Displaying no ill effects from his torn ACL, Palmer threw for 307 yards and three TDs. The defense did a good job keeping the Saints out of the end zone.

Opening weekend was a bust. New arrivals Andre Johnson and Frank Gore combined for 55 yards.

Andrew Luck had his worst game since, well, his last game. The best that can be said of the Colts is they hung around and made a go of it.

Seahawks (0-1)

Cowboys (1-0)

Broncos (1-0)

Karma for Russell Wilson’s tweet? The Seahawks started slow last year, let’s all remember, before we drop them much further than this. Still, while Jimmy Graham’s debut included a touchdown, Kam Chancellor’s absence was clearly evident.

Just don’t ask them to win like that every week.

And it was a costly victory, as Dez Bryant suffered a broken foot. Dallas got last-minute heroics from Jason Witten and Cole Beasley, to redeem two costly mistakes.

We expected the Broncos defense to be great, and they were, returning an interception for the winning score, picking off Joe Flacco in the end zone to clinch it and limiting the Ravens to just 173 total yards. The problem is the offense was pretty bad.

The Tyrod Taylor era has begun in Buffalo. The big story on the day was the Bills’ remarkable defense, which limited the Colts to 304 total yards and pitched a shutout in the first half.

Unable to get it done on the ground with the absences of Todd Gurley and Tre Mason, the Rams had to turn to Nick Foles, who threw for 297 yards on just 27 attempts in his debut.

With Martavis Bryant, Maurkice Pouncey and Le’Veon Bell all out, it was a tall order for the Steelers against the Patriots, and they actually played fairly well given the circumstances.

The Chargers scored 30 straight points to take the lead and never looked back after falling behind, 21-3, to Detroit to begin the game. Philip Rivers threw for 404 yards in the win.

Most people were expecting a triumphant return for Adrian Peterson, but it was Carlos Hyde who ran wild Monday, rushing for 168 yards and two touchdowns to lead San Francisco.

It was always going to be a tough opener, facing Kansas City without Arian Foster. The Texans made an attempt at a comeback after Ryan Mallett entered the game (after Brian Hoyer was benched).

The Bengals came out and crushed Oakland, racking up a 30-0 lead before allowing two late touchdowns. Tyler Eifert had 104 yards and two touchdowns to lead the offense.

This wasn’t the comingout party the Dolphins were hoping for. Still, a Jarvis Landry punt return TD and winning the turnover battle got them out of Week 1 with a win.

Rookie running back Tevin Coleman had an impressive debut, with 80 rushing yards against an Eagles run defense that had looked dominating in the preseason.

Baltimore’s offense had a disastrous game against Denver on Sunday. Joe Flacco managed just 117 yards passing on 32 attempts, and threw two interceptions.

It wasn’t the best start for Chip Kelly’s overhaul, though the offense came alive in the second half after falling down 20-3. With so much depth at running back, they passed 52 times and ran just 16.

The Lions let one slip away in San Diego, losing a 21-3 lead behind 30 straight points from the Chargers. Rookie Ameer Abdullah did well, gaining 129 total yards on 14 touches.
