‘City Hall in Your Borough’ Connects Brooklynites To Mayor and Top Officials

Mayor Bill de Blasio and top city officials are focusing on Brooklyn all week as “City Hall in Your Borough” brings the administration to de Blasio’s home turf.

Shown: The mayor (with Department of Transportation Commissioner Polly Trottenberg) answers a constituent’s question at last year’s town hall in Brooklyn.

It’s Brooklyn’s turn for “City Hall in Your Borough.” The mayor and top officials are running the city from Brooklyn Borough Hall all week. (It was Staten Island’s turn in July.)

“City Hall in Your Borough” is designed to allow the administration to hear directly from residents and focus on their concerns for a full week, the mayor said.

During the week, the administration are packing in local ribbon cuttings, visits to health and employment centers, tours of startups and wastewater treatment plants and press conferences with numerous local officials. Events for everyday Brooklynites include a city resource fair yesterday and a mayoral community town hall today.

To kick off “City Hall in Your Borough” 2018, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams joined Citi Bike, Assembly-

member Jo Anne Simon at City Hall during a ceremonial ride across the Brooklyn Bridge to celebrate Citi Bike’s new pedal-assist bikes. Citi Bike will begin integrating 200 pedal-assist bikes into its fleet of 12,000 bicycles and expects to add a total of 1,000 pedal-assist bikes by next year specifically to help commuters affected by the L train shutdown.

At last year’s town hall in Brooklyn Heights, de Blasio announced new investments in local parks, new schools, a doubling of the Boerum Hill Historic District and funds to reopen the Gowanus Houses Community Center, among other projects.

He also used the power of the mayorship to connect aggrieved residents of Councilmember Stephen Levin's District 33 (Greenpoint, Brooklyn Heights) directly to commissioners and other officials who were filling

almost a quarter of the seats, ready to cut through red tape.

This year’s town hall will take place in Canarsie. Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams will be co-presenting the event in partnership with U.S. Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, state Sen. Roxanne Persaud, Assemblymember Jaime Williams and Councilmember Alan Maisel, today at 6:30 p.m. at the Hebrew Educational Society, 9502 Seaview Ave. The Resource Fair took place at the Ingersoll Community Center — University Settlement in Fort Greene yesterday from 12 to 3 p.m. Representatives from the city’s departments of Education, Finance, Health, Parks and Recreation, Small Business Services and Transportation, plus the Economic Development Corporation, Office of the Mayor and NYPD will be on hand to answer questions and concerns.

Newtown Creek: Don’t Judge a Nature Walk By Its Smell

By Alex Wieckowski Greenpoint Gazette

Tucked away in the corner of Provost Street and Paidge Avenue in Greenpoint, between two places people try to avoid — a sewage treatment plant and a Time Warner Cable office — is the Newtown Creek Nature Walk.

The Whale Creek Path and the nature walk end with a view of the sewage treatment plant.

has been shown in New York, Miami, and Florence. The DEP writes the nature walk was designed to be an “open space as a vibrant intersection, where multiple histories, cultural identities, and geologic epochs coexist.”

The space pays tribute to the Lenape people, who lived in Greenpoint before the Europeans and to the thriving cooperage, ship-making and lumber industries of the 18th and 19th century Greenpoint.

The entry gates to the nature walk are made of ninefoot-tall stainless steel pipes assembled in a wave shape meant to mimic the movement of water. Past the gate and up the stairs is the “Vessel.”

A 170-foot vessel with bowed walls mimics the way old boats were built along the shore of the East River in Greenpoint during the 19th century. According to the Throughout the nature walk, there are free-standing DEP, “The original boats were nearly twice the size of plaques that highlight the industrial and medicinal the Nature Walk vessel” and were delivered to Whale Creek from Nova Scotia. uses of native Greenpoint plants.

Continuing down the nature walk, visitors will find seven granite circles. Etched into each granite stone are the native place names used by the early Lenape people.

Greenpoint, for instance, was originally called “keshaechquereren” or “grassy expanse.”

The main feature of the nature walk is a set of nine, 12-inch-thick granite slab steps that form a massive 405-ton staircase. The steps ascend directly out of Newtown Creek and symbolize the common origin of life from sea to land. Each granite step is engraved with the scientific Visitors will finally see nature when they make their way into Whale names of various life forms native to Newtown Creek.

A new seven-story boutique office building in Greenpoint will help alleviate the dearth of Class A office space for small businesses in an area booming with residential development, dining and nightlife options.

Simon Baron Development Unveils Plans for State of the Art Office Building in Greenpoint Greenpoint Gazette

Simon Baron Development announced plans on Monday for 12 Franklin St., a seven-story boutique office building on the Greenpoint/North Williamsburg border designed to help alleviate the dearth of Class A office space for small businesses in an area booming with residential development, dining and nightlife options. The project is bounded by Franklin Street, Meserole Avenue, Gem Street and North 15th Street.

The announcement comes as the New York City Planning Commission is expected to certify the project, which requires a zoning text amendment and special permit, to begin the Uniform Land Use Review Process on Monday. Over the past several months, Simon Baron has met with a number of local and citywide stakeholders to solicit feedback on the proposal.

“North Brooklyn is teeming with apartments, hotels, restaurants and nightlife — but what's missing is

enough high-quality office space to meet the demands of the area’s growing workforce," said Matthew Baron, president of Simon Baron.

“North Brooklyn residents increasingly want to work closer to home, and 12 Franklin will meet that need by providing modern, amenity-rich office space that Brooklyn small businesses have come to expect.

And at the same time, the project will preserve and enhance the neighborhood’s longstanding manufacturing job base by setting aside space specifically for those uses. We’ve been encouraged by conversations we’ve had with local stakeholders thus far and look forward to continuing that dialogue as the official review process gets underway,” he said.

Twelve Franklin St. will comprise approximately 134,000 square feet of office, ground floor retail and rooftop amenity space, including roughly 23,000 square feet of manufacturing space. Office spaces will include window exposure on four sides, 15-foot floor-

to-floor heights, two lobbies, outdoor terrace space for tenants on every floor, a shared conference room, bike valet and storage for 85 bikes and underground parking for 36 vehicles.

Designed by FXCollaborative, the building was designed to reinforce the industrial character of the neighborhood. At the same time, the project will help create an active pedestrian and retail corridor across from the planned Bushwick Inlet Park. The building is just a five-minute walk from the Nassau Avenue G Train station, along with numerous Citi Bike stations, Revel electric mopeds, and a 10-minute walk from the North Williamburg and Greenpoint NYC Ferry stations. Because 12 Franklin St. is designed to encourage public transportation use and help ease traffic congestion, Simon Baron has requested a waiver from the zoning requirement to reduce the number of parking spaces in the project.

The building is expected to open in 2021.

Cornell Merrill Scholar Pays Tribute to High School Chemistry Teacher

BY PAULA KATINAS PAULA@BROOKLYNEAGLE.COM

W

hen Ilana Kotliar received a prestigious honor at Cornell University, she decided to share the accolade with the high school chemistry teacher who had inspired her.

Kotliar, who hails from Sheepshead Bay, was named a Merrill Presidential Scholar at Cornell University. She recently graduated from the university’s College of Arts and Sciences in the top one percent of the Class of 2018. She was one of 32 graduating seniors to earn the title of Merrill Presidential Scholar.

Cornell administrators invited the Merrill scholars to include a favorite teacher from their years in high school to share their big moment.

Kotliar asked Susan Katzoff, her chemistry teacher at Leon M. Goldstein High School for the Sciences, to attend the awards luncheon. The high school is located on the campus of Kingsborough Community College in Manhattan Beach.

Each year as part of the Merrill Presidential Scholarship program, high school teachers recommended by the student-scholars are invited to visit Cornell University for an all expenses paid, two-day trip to take part in a series of events that culminate in the awards luncheon.

This year, 28 high school teachers came from all over the U.S. and countries like Canada, Singapore, India and the Netherlands.

Kotliar said she chose Katzoff to share her big moment because she had a major impact on her life and outlook.

The most important thing Katzoff taught her was always to put her best effort into chemistry, never to give up, she said. “She would always break down chemistry into ‘Chem Is Try.’ The idea was to throw your hat in the ring and go for it. That idea of trying and putting in the work to learn has really stuck with me,” Kotliar said in a statement.

Kotliar and Katzoff, along with Thomas Ruttledge of Cornell’s Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, whom Kotliar also named as a big influence on her, were guests at the luncheon at Willard Straight Hall on campus.

Cornell University Provost Michael Kotlikoff told the high school teachers

“You can take pride in having influenced some of Cornell’s top

graduating seniors and in knowing that they continue to appreciate all you did for them,” Kotlikoff told teachers, according to a statement on

Cornell’s website. “On behalf of the university, I want to thank all the secondary and university teachers here today, for your dedication to bringing out the very best in our students. Congratulations on being extraordinary teachers.”

The Merrill Presidential Scholars program was created by the late Philip Merrill, a 1955 Cornell graduate. The program continues to be supported by the Merrill Family Foundation.

Merrill scholars are selected by the deans of their respective colleges at Cornell and are chosen on the basis of their intellectual drive, leadership abilities and potential to contribute to society Kotliar was one of nine students from the College of Arts and Sciences to receive the honor.

High school teachers have been honored as part of the Merrill program since 1989.

McKinley Student Earns Gold

BY ARIAMA LONG EDITORIAL@BROOKLYNREPORTER.COM

elilah Kitsakos, a dedicated martial artist and seventh grader at William McKinley Intermediate School, took home the gold at her first four-day long Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) National Karate Tournament in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on June 27.

Kitsakos, her older brother Charles, and her father, Alex Kitsakos, were at the AAU National competition in Florida, a long plane ride from their home on the Fort Hamilton Army Base. The convention center was packed with several hundred experienced martial artists.

“At first I was a little intimidated.

They were all doing high level stuff and it makes you humble,” said Kitsakos about her competition. “Most of the other girls knew each other and had done it before so they were comfortable. That annoyed me.”

Although seemingly shy in her white gi pants and jacket, Kitsakos exudes confidence in martial arts.

It’s this attitude that won her a gold medal in the offensive and defensive form Kata competition, making her

Sensei Rebecca Carrano (left) and her student martial artist Delilah Kitsakos (right). the Female 13-year-old Novice Kata National Champion. She also won a bronze medal for Kumite, the art of sparring and kicking.

At the Hoteikan Dojo, at 71st Street and Fort Hamilton Parkway, she is currently a purple belt participating in the Black Belt Club, a group of kids at the dojo specially trained to become black belts. The dojo, being a few blocks from her school, is basically a second home.

“I remember we were on a cruise with the family and she had a sparring competition at the dojo coming up. So we practiced with the pads on the boat,” said her father, Alex. “The

trophy she won was bigger than her.”

Sensei Rebecca Carrano, Kitsakos’s teacher, has been teaching martial arts with her husband for 25 years including helping toddlers learn through their “Little Dragons” program where Kitsakos started.

Carrano said, “Definitely, she [Delilah] has the skill and discipline to be a sensei. No ifs about that.”

Since she was four years old, Kitsakos has been practicing her craft, and hopes to one day become a sensei and continue the legacy of the Hoteikan dojo. She believes emphatically in learning how to protect yourself so that you can in turn protect others.

CEC 21 Prez Started by Asking Questions

BY PAULA KATINAS PAULA@BROOKLYNEAGLE.COM

T

he schools in District 21 in Southwest Brooklyn have student populations that include large numbers of immigrants from Asia, Eastern Europe and other farflung places around the globe. So perhaps it’s fitting that the new president of the district’s Community Education Council (CEC) is an immigrant whose love for her adopted country and curiosity about its school system propelled her career forward.

Anna Lembersky, who was recently elected by her fellow CEC members to serve as their president for the 20182019 school year, is originally from Ukraine. “I was born in Kiev,” she told this newspaper in a phone interview.

She emigrated to the U.S. in 1993.

District 21 covers Coney Island and Gravesend, and includes parts of Bensonhurst and Midwood.

There are many different languages spoken in the district, Lembersky said. “We have many students who are English language learners. We have a little bit of everything,” she said.

Lembersky, who has that go from sixth to 12th The PTA president’s response surbeen a CEC member grade. prised her. “The president said, ‘Why for four years, was `“We are very don’t you become more involved?

CECILIA VICUNA: DISAPPEARED QUIPO

For millennia, ancient peoples of the Andes created quipus — complex record-keeping devices, made of knotted cords, which served as an essential medium for reading and writing, registering and remembering. New Yorkbased Chilean artist and poet Cecilia Vicuña has devoted a significant part of her artistic practice to studying, interpreting, and reactivating the quipus, which were banned by the Spanish during their colonization of South America. Drawing on

her indigenous heritage, Vicuña channels this ancient, sensorial mode of communication into immersive installations and participatory performances.

THE HISTORY OF SCOTCH WHISKY

With glass in hand you’ll begin that journey and explore the origins of spirit, its eventual arrival into Scotland and how the process was refined and perfected to the malts and blends we enjoy today. You›ll also stare through the looking glass of time to the people who made whisky so popular; the fight against government and taxmen; halcyon days and the dark days; its global reach with roots still firmly planted in the hills and glens of rural Scotland.

David McNicoll will explain how the stuff is actually made, where it is made and how geography as well as history has had a part to play in whisky’s development. How is Scotch different to Bourbon or Irish, and how have their stories differed and related to our saga? There are quirky stories, interesting characters and the mystery of the lost distilleries to illuminate you.

SAY IT LOUD: CINEMA IN THE AGE OF BLACK POWER, 1966—1981

A cinematic companion to the Brooklyn Museum’s exhibit Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power, the series explores revolutionary and relevant records of a struggle that continues to this day. As black consciousness spread

across the globe in the mid-1960s, it gave rise to a radical cinema that both reflected and worked to further the cause of AfricanAmerican liberation. Say It Loud opens with a shorts program headlined by the US premiere of a new scan of Edouard de Laurot’s lost classic Black Liberation( aka Silent Revolution) (1967—Aug 17) and screens with short films Off the Pig! (aka Black Panther) (Third World Newsreel, 1968) and Madeline Anderson’s A Tribute to Malcolm X (1967).

The earliest film in the series, Dutchman (Anthony Harvey, 1966—Aug 20), screens as part of a program dedicated to revolutionary playwright and poet Amiri Baraka alongside Medea (Ben Caldwell, 1973), inspired by Baraka’s poem “Part of the Doctrine,” and The New-Ark (Amiri Baraka, 1968), a recently rediscovered documentary

by Baraka about grassroots consciousness-raising efforts connected to Spirit House, his black nationalist theater and community center.

New Outpatient Diagnostic Center and Women's Health Imaging Suite Debuts

BY JOHN ALEXANDER JALEXANDER@BROOKLYNEAGLE.COM

A

fter the devastation of Superstorm Sandy, NYC Health + Hospitals/Coney Island is back and better than ever.

On Wednesday, Aug. 22, it marked the opening of a new state-of-the-art outpatient diagnostic center and women’s health imaging suite.

“This is a great thing for the community,” Thomas Melillo, director of marketing, communications and public affairs, told this paper. “We’re going to save a lot of lives and help heal a lot of people.”

Peter Montanino, associate executive director, radiology/diagnostics, was thrilled that the hospital was finally dedicating the facilities.

“We’re finally opening up,” Montanino said. “We’ve been official since January, 2018 and we’re opening it up as a remediation for all the Sandy destruction that we had. We are back in place with two mammography units, two radiology units, screening rooms for osteoporosis as well as dental and jaw suites.”

Montanino called the new mammography unit the crown jewel of the hospital. “It will be 3-D adaptable thanks to our city councilmembers who gave us the money to be able to proceed and provide the best kind of services for patients in the southern part of Brooklyn,” he said.

NYC Health + Hospitals/Coney Island CEO William Brown hosted the event. He explained how it has taken a long time for the hospital to recover from Hurricane Sandy and how this new suite represents the resiliency of the hospital and the community.

“It’s really very symbolic,” Brown

Among those attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony were City Councilmember Chaim Deutsch, Democratic District Leader Ari Kagan, representing New York City Comptroller Scott Stringer, and Doreen Garson, representing state Sen. Marty Golden.

“Coney Island Hospital is a crucial part of southern Brooklyn,” Deutsch

said. “Having this new imaging center is a great addition to the hospital.

We need to make sure we continue putting the resources into the only hospital we have here in southern Brooklyn.”

What Do Houses Sell for in the Carroll Gardens Historic District?

By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

People hold onto their wonderful rowhouses in the Carroll Gardens Historic District. Can you blame them?

You must be wondering how much the homes go for when they do get sold. We checked public records and found transaction prices of more than $3 million over the past couple years.

The district includes President Street and Carroll Street blocks between Smith and Hoyt streets plus portions of Smith Street and Hoyt Street between President Street and First Place or First Street.

These post-Civil War brownstones' location within a landmarked district protects them from demolition. Owners cannot alter their exteriors without the city Landmarks Preservation Commission's permission.

These homes are very picturesque, thanks in part to unusually deep front yards with lovely gardens. See related story.

Who puts the “garden” in Carroll Gardens? Every homeowner in the historic district.

Throughout this hot and humid summer, residents of the Carroll Gardens Historic District's stunning brownstone blocks have kept their fleurs flourishing.

Shrubs and tall trees on their properties add luxuriant foliage to the scenery. Grassy lawns grow here and there.

Thanks to the gardeners' dedication, the landmarked district's streetscapes are Instagram-worthy.

Take a look at the photo we took outside 326A President St. facing in the direction of Smith Street. There are flowers in profusion.

In a photo taken outside 299A Carroll St. facing away from Hoyt Street, brownstones and gardens seem to stretch to infinity.

Fab flowers can be found all over the place. For instance, the gardens at 318 President St. and at 338 President St. are full of late-summer blossoms.

Ivy tumbles over the front wall at 298A Carroll St. See brooklyneagle.com for additional pix we snapped of the glorious gardens.

A Shout-Out to Richard Butts

* The owner of 325 Smith St. on the corner of President Street is converting the rowhouse into a mixed-use building.

It will have commercial space in the cellar and on the first

Those of us who love strolling through brownstone neighborhoods and staring at flowers owe a debt of gratitude to Richard Butts.

He's a mid-19th-century surveyor who mapped out lots in Carroll Gardens with front yards that are 33.5 feet deep. He's mentioned in the city Landmarks Preservation Commission's 1973 designation report about the Carroll Gardens Historic District.

Properties on the President Street and Carroll Street blocks between Smith and Hoyt streets, which constitute the historic district, were also mapped out using Butts' idea about having deep front yards.

On these blocks, the front yards are 25 to 39 feet deep — providing lots of room for folks with green thumbs to do their thing.

There are 160-plus buildings in the historic district.

The landmarked rowhouses are mostly brownstones. Some are late Italianate in style. Others are French Neo-Grec.

He authored “Old Brooklyn Heights: New York 's First Suburb,” an all-important book that helped Brooklyn Heights residents get their neighborhood designated as New York City's very first historic district.

A Shout-Out to Charles Carroll

Through these fenced-in flowers, you can catch a glimpse of 259 Carroll St., which changed hands in March.

Come See the Fine Flora in the Carroll Gardens Historic District — Continued from page 24INB — One of the architectural history experts who presented the case for the Carroll Gardens Historic District to the Landmarks Preservation Commission was Clay Lancaster.

But back to Carroll Gardens.

The Carroll Gardens Historic District's designation report says house construction in the district started at the end of the 1860s and wrapped up in the early 1880s.

Development was spurred by the creation of Carroll Park, which is on the opposite side of Smith Street from the historic-district blocks.

The builder-developers who constructed the houses in the historic district were William Bedell and other members of his family and John Layton.

The park's name honors Maryland's signer of the Declaration of Independence, Charles Carroll.

We mention this since Green-Wood Cemetery and other venerable institutions commemorate the 1776 Battle of Brooklyn every August.

The park's builders chose Carroll's name as a reminder of the Maryland 400, who took a heroic stand at the Old Stone House in Gowanus during the Battle of Brooklyn.

They were appallingly outnumbered but fought to the death. Their self-sacrifice enabled Colonial troops to retreat safely.

A historical note gleaned from the 1973 designation report about the Carroll Gardens Historic District: In the mid-1870s, the office of developer-builder William Bedell was next door at 327 Smith St. He constructed many of the houses in the historic district.

Bedell built the entire row of houses on the odd-numbered side of Smith Street from President to Carroll streets between 1872 and 1873.

Brooklyn Real Estate Financing Faces Frenzy Of Activity Amid Maturing Loans, Dodd-Frank Revision

By Matthew Dzbanek, Director – Capital Services

David Baruch,

Senior Analyst – Investment Research

The U.S. economy has gained considerable momentum in recent months, paving the way for the Federal Reserve to continue tightening monetary policy 2018. While rising borrowing costs could suppress loan origination, an avalanche of maturing mortgages, revisions made to the Dodd-Frank Act, and a growing pool of eager, smaller lenders should keep borrowing activity buoyant in Brooklyn.

A tight labor market and firming inflation has the Fed confident that the economy can withstand the impact of higher rates. Gross domestic product grew by 4.1% in the second quarter, significantly above the first quarter’s 2.2% and the strongest growth since the third quarter of 2014. After raising rates for a second time this year in June, the Fed has penciled two more rate hikes in 2018, with the next likely to emerge at its September meeting. This should put upward pressure on rates and eventually lead to even higher borrowing costs on consumer and business loans.

The 10-year Treasury yield, which influences everything from mortgage rates to corporate loans, has hovered around 3% in recent months as political turmoil overseas joined concerns that tariffs between the U.S. and its major trading partners will slow global growth. These trade tariffs should put additional pressure on Treasuries as inflation erodes the value of the fixed payments made on the bonds.

At between 4.0%-4.5%, interest rates on five-year multifamily loans are roughly 50-75 basis points higher than where they were a year ago. Despite the uptick, however, interest rates remain historically low, which should keep the landscape for lending favorable.

Demand has been particularly strong for multifamily properties in Brooklyn in 2018 as its growing appeal as a “worklive-play” destination attracts both private and institutional investors. Brooklyn enjoyed banner activity in the first half, recording $1.54 billion in sales, the highest of any sub-market, according to Ariel Property Advisors’ “Multifamily Quarter In Review.” For our exclusive report, click on http://arielpa.com/report/report-MFQIR-Q2-2018 While Brooklyn’s lofty dollar volume was mostly attributable to the $904.61 million Starrett City Portfolio, the largest sale year-to-date in New York City, all three volume metrics increased on an annual basis and the 39 transactions comprised of 79 buildings were the highest of any sub-market.

In 2013 – the beginning of the most recent real estate cycle – Brooklyn saw 1,059 transactions consisting of 1,440

properties totalling $4.3 billion in gross consideration, according to Ariel Property Advisors’ Investment Research Division. These properties were likely financed by acquisition loans, with the 5-year maturity the most common at the time. It has therefore been a busy year for Brooklyn because as loans mature, investors typically choose to refinance or sell their properties, and the buyers of these assets often seek financing to fund their purchases.

Brooklyn, the most populous borough, has dominated commercial lending activity in recent months. In the month of May it snared 42% of all of New York City’s transactions. Moreover, seven of the top eight neighborhoods for financing were situated in the borough, with the zip codes encompassing South Bushwick/East New York; East Williamsburg/North Bushwick/ North Bedford-Stuyvesant; and Prospect Lefferts Gardens/Flatbush/East Flatbush ranking in the top three, according to the Commercial Observer, citing data from lending database Actovia. In addition, these three areas comprised 18% of all New York City’s mortgages.

undoubtedly become more expensive to finance real estate transactions, loosened regulations should open the lending spigot wider. With the guidance of

an experienced mortgage broker, an investor can obtain financing via smaller institutions that are more than eager to extend credit at competitive rates.

Changing Landscape Of Lenders

Real estate financing has picked up this year as the investment sales market gained momentum. During 1H18, Brooklyn’s entire market saw 526 transactions consisting of 685 properties, totaling approximately $4.28 billion in gross consideration, according to Ariel Property Advisors’ “Brooklyn 2018 Mid-Year Sales Report.” For our exclusive report, click on http://arielpa.com/ report/report-APA-Brooklyn-mid2018Sales-Report In 2015, banks pulled back after federal banking regulators cautioned them about overexposure to the multifamily asset class and its impact on their financial stability. Lenders also erred on the side of caution due to the Dodd-Frank Act, which was put in place as a safeguard in the aftermath of last decade’s recession. Lenders tended to be conservative about the amount of assets they were servicing and holding on their balance sheet due to increased government scrutiny.

However, following a similar bill that passed in March, the U.S. House of Representatives recently voted to dismantle part of the Dodd-Frank Act. The bill relaxes regulations for all but the largest U.S. banks, raising the level at which banks face the tight oversight spelled out in Dodd-Frank to $250 billion in assets, up from the current $50 billion. Due to this increase, banks are expected to become much more active in the lending arena.

As more and more people call Brooklyn home, institutional and private investors will likely continue to seek mortgage financing in New York City’s biggest borough. While it has

Chief Clerk in B’klyn Criminal Term Gave Up a Career in Art for 45 Years in the Courts

By Rob Abruzzese INBrooklyn

In a courthouse, it is the judges who make all of the decisions, but everyone who works in the courts knows that the people who actually run the daily tasks are the clerks. In Brooklyn’s Supreme Court, Criminal Term, the person running the show is Chief Clerk Daniel Alessandrino.

Alessandrino has served the court system for 45 years now and has been the chief clerk for the past eight, but his is an illustrious career that might not have ever happened if he had followed in his father’s footsteps and become a commercial artist instead.

“My father was a commercial artist, and I was an illustrator who thought that he was going to follow is his footsteps,” Alessandrino recalled. “But that was, and still is, a very tough industry to get into.

Once I didn’t get accepted into Cooper Union, that sort of faded away.”

Alessandrino, who was born in Manhattan and raised in Brooklyn, instead went on to apply for a job as a court officer and started his extended career in Brooklyn’s Criminal Court at 120 Schermerhorn St. as a 20-year-old starting in 1973.

That was just his first of now nine official titles the St. Francis and St. John’s University graduate has held while working in the courts. Of course, that’s only nine titles and unofficially has served in many capacities.

Some of Alessandrino’s other titles included clerk in the Kings County Family Court, motion clerk in the New York County Surrogate’s Court, a clerk in Brooklyn’s night court, supervising investigator for the application verification unit, chief court officer of the family court citywide, assistant director for court security services inside NYC, director of personnel for the NYC Criminal Court and liaison for the city to handle the writs on the

“Every time I talk about 45 years, my immediate reaction is, ‘Oh my God, that’s such a long time,’ but it went by like a flash,” Alessandrino said. “I think it’s because I like what I did. It was a lot of variety, I did everything from security to investigations, to fiscal work, to human resource work. It really broadens to scope of what you are able to do and it can be a lot of fun. I’m still having fun. That’s why I’m not retired yet.”

He got the job as chief clerk in 2010 after he had been working as a liaison between the courts and the Mayor’s Office for Criminal Justice. He explained that job often put him in contact with then administrative judge of the criminal term, Hon. Barry Kamins. When James Imperatrice retired, Kamins believed that Alessandrino was an easy choice for the position.

“When you’re hiring a chief clerk, you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable about the court system and who has as much experience as possible,” Kamins said. “You want someone trustworthy and reliable, and Dan fills all of those categories.

“He’s one of the most competent people I’ve met in the court system,” Kamins continued. “I remembered him from my days as a defense attorney when he was a court officer as someone who has always been well liked and respected by judges and court staff.”

As chief clerk, Alessandrino is the top non-judicial court employee who is in charge of running the court on a day-today basis. If there is a blizzard, hurricane or other emergencies, he has to determine if the court opens or not, and how it will operate. If there are changes in policy, he is the person to help implement them.

When there are layoffs or transfers, he has to be the one responsible to break the news. All of this, in one of the busiest criminal courthouses in the nation.

“We don’t get the high-profile people,

but we do get violent and serious crimes that are high-profile cases,” Alessandrino said. “It’s an interesting place to work with a lot going on. It’s very serious work here and I’m in a support role for the judges.”

Despite 45 years in the court system, Alessandrino said that he doesn’t expect to retire soon. If he does retire, he won’t go back to art work. Despite the fact that he

Department for his work, he has given it up. Instead, he’ll stick with his current hobbies of fishing and archery.

“If I had plans to do something, to travel or to move somewhere, I might retire, but my wife and I don’t want to be away from our two grandchildren for very long and, honestly, I’m still having fun and learning something new every day.”

Sculpture Memorializing Holocaust Victims Unveiled at Kingsborough Community College Bykov Family Commissioned the Artwork To Continue Teaching Lessons Of Holocaust

By Francesca Norsen Tate INBRooklyn

Assemblymember Steven Cymbrowitz, a Brooklyn Democrat, and Kingsborough Community College’s Interim President Peter Cohen joined forces last week to unveil a statue commemorating victims of the Holocaust. The statue, titled Infinity, was donated to the college by the Bykov family.

The Aug. 13 ceremony featured a memorial candle lighting with Russian-American veterans. Among those offering remarks were Cymbrowitz, Cohen, Dr. Stanley Bykov and a number of elected officials, including Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams. Rabbi Andy Bachman, also participated.

“The Bykov family commissioned

the work and made the generous donation to Kingsborough, which is making it a permanent part of the Holocaust resource center that the school is in the process of building,” wrote Cymbrowitz in a social media post, an excerpt of which his office made available to INBrooklyn.

Speakers emphasized the importance of Holocaust education, to make sure the atrocities of this period are never forgotten.

Bykov, an ophthalmologist, and his father Mitya spoke of their family’s commitment to keeping the memory of the Holocaust alive and explained the significance behind the sculpture.

Bachman recited the Mourner’s Kaddish and described his recent trip to Belarus and Lithuania, where he bore witness to the crimes committed against Jews during World War II. Also attending were Assemblymember Helene Weinstein, City Councilmember Mark Treyger and Ari Kagan from New York City Comptroller Scott Stringer’s office.

Union Temple Begins New Chapter With Innovative Approach to Worship The 170-year-old Union Temple of Brooklyn, which stands at a crossroads with the retirement of its beloved rabbi — Dr. Linda Henry Goodman, who served Union Temple for more than a quarter of a century — is entering a year of innovations. Union Temple will hold an open house to introduce the community to its new chapter.

Rabbi Mark Sameth, the congregation’s newly appointed interim rabbi, observed, “The Jewish world has changed. We’re honoring our past, and also experimenting with new modalities.”

Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim was founded in 1848 by German and Alsatian immigrants in what was then the Village of Williamsburg. Its congregants abided by traditional Jewish Orthodoxy.

Another synagogue, Temple Israel, was established in 1869 by a congregation following the Reform Movement. Rabbi Isaac Mayer Wise had recently brought this community to America.

A transformation evolved over the years, as Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim also adopted the reforms of Rabbi Wise. These two temples merged in 1921.

Sameth previously led an experimental congregation for 18 years — Pleasantville Community Synagogue in Westchester County. The Forward named him one of “America’s Most Inspiring Rabbis.”

Sameth was attracted to Union Temple’s diversity, and calls it a place “where Jews, their families and friends unite for shalom.”

“Reform congregations are attracting folks who grew up Orthodox and Conservative, Roman Catholic and Mainline Protestant. Where do people of such diverse backgrounds meet? For me, the place of true meeting begins in Avodah Shebalev, ‘Service of the Heart,’” said Sameth. “We need to gather, to experience the felt sense of our shared humanity, share our collective wisdom, and buoy one another as we engage with a profoundly

challenging, deeply broken world. Union Temple supports and makes a space for that.”

Sameth’s heartfelt, musical services build on a long tradition of music at Union Temple, but take it in new, unexpected directions. Also new this year are a monthly Meditation Shabbat, a Friday night scholar-in-residence-style lecture series, and something called “Pajama Shabbat” for the under-six crowd.

Union Temple’s Sept. 7 open house begins at 5 p.m. with refreshments, and provides an opportunity to meet Sameth and members of the community. Attendees can learn about Union Temple’s many offerings. Kids are welcome; they will participate in a supervised Shabbat-related arts and crafts project.

There will also be a lively service for children of all ages and their families at the temple’s First Friday Family Shabbat/Pajama Shabbat and potluck. RSVP: info@ uniontemple.org or 718-638-7600 ext. 1. Walk-ins are also welcome!

Union Temple of Brooklyn is at 17 Eastern Parkway at Grand Army Plaza, steps from the IRT subway station on the 2 and 3 lines. High Holiday tickets are free, but must be reserved. Open House Friday Sept. 7 at 5 p.m.

Greenpoint’s 5th Annual Brooklyn Antiquarian Book Fair Kicks Off Brooklyn Book Week

7

Greenpoint Gazette Book lovers by the hundreds from both boroughs will be heading to Brooklyn this fall for what has become one of the largest and most popular literary events in the country. Brooklyn Book Week, as it is informally known, is a weeklong celebration of books both old and new. It kicks off with the return of the Brooklyn Antiquarian Book Fair (BABF) to Greenpoint’s Brooklyn Expo Center, Sept. 8 and 9.

The 100-exhibitor fair is the largest regional book fair of its kind. The depth and diversity of exhibitors, talks and galleries makes it a showcase for the best of the best in vintage and rare books; prints, photos and ephemera. This is the fair where rare book librarians from top libraries and museums mix with collectors and fair-goers of all ages. Exhibitors, heralding from 20 states, Italy, England and Canada, will have on display and for sale more than 50,000 items.

This year the BABF features a fairwithin-a-fair — The Brooklyn Print & Photo Fair, highlighting exhibitors of fine prints, vernacular and found photos. Six new gallery exhibits devoted to fine prints are featured in the new section, with works ranging from prints by such well-known artists as Milton Avery, and Paul Cadmus to Russian art that spans the early 1900s to 2007.

In the exhibit room, show-goers will find the largest known assembly of artwork produced by leading Swedish and Scandinavian artists of the 1960s and 1970s counterculture — the Swedish Underground Exhibition. Exhibition organizer, Johann Kugelberg, founder of Boo-Hooray, which is known for its archival collections of pop, punk and underground art, will conduct a tour of the exhibition and a talk humorously titled,

“Why is the Swedish Underground Important: I Don’t Speak Swedish?” on Sunday at 2 p.m.

The fair is also celebrating a special birthday — Frankenstein is 200 years old this year. Mary Shelley’s famous novel was first published in 1818 when she was eighteen and there is lots of activity surrounding the occasion. New York City’s Morgan Library will mount an exhibition this coming October, titled “It’s Alive!” to

“What is so wonderful about the photobooth was the changing world they represented, and the fact that they made photography available to everybody,” says Nakki Goranin.

“My favorite photobooth images are the most tender ones. Couples shyly kissing for the first time; images in which you can see genuine affection between people.”

A fascinating tintype on display at Nakki Goranin’s booth features scenes from the Chicago Exposition of 1893. She bought two photos 20 years apart, but they fit together perfectly. They were taken at the “Egyptian Village” as part Photos courtesy of the Brooklyn Antiquarian Book Fair of the Fair’s Attraction. commemorate the anniversary. The Morgan Library’s John Bidwell and New York Public Library curator Elizabeth Denlinger will present a preview of the exhibition at the BABF on Saturday at 5p.m.

Nakki Goranin particularly likes portraits that show humor, such as a blowup of three “wise guys” proudly puffing their cigars, also on display at her booth — part of an exhibit of a dozen blowups of her own work, which will include both photobooth and tintype art.

Don’t miss BABF’s series of exciting talks throughout the weekend. Exhibitor Lorne Bair will discuss how to collect ephemera of the 20th- and 21st-century social movements, while Heather O’Donnell, founder of Honey and Wax Booksellers in Brooklyn, gives us a look at “New Directions in Book Collecting.”

Will Barnet was an American artist known for his paintings, watercolors, drawings and prints depicting the human figure and animals, both in casual scenes of daily life and in transcendent dreamlike worlds.

Anna Jozefacka, Lyda Klich and Juliana Kreinik, authors of “The Propaganda Front: Postcards from the Era of World Wars,” will cover what makes the perfect propaganda postcard, illustrated with examples from the late 19th century through WWII. On a lighter note, exhibitor Garrett Scott will present a talk “From Aristotle to Asa K. Butts, or the Literature of Earth Closets, Troublesome Monkeys, Sex and Reform in 19th Century America.” Writer A. N. Devers, founder of The Second Shelf, a rare book business and literary quarterly, will give a talk that is focused on writing by women.
