Montague St. in the Running for Greenest Block in Brooklyn

By Mary Frost Brooklyn Heights Press

Montague Street is a semifinalist in the Greenest Block in Brooklyn contest, and Kate Chura, executive director of the Montague BID, wants to let folks know who keeps the plants and trees up along Brooklyn Heights’ shopping street.

“The talented and passionate team at James Weir Floral selects the material and cares for all of the plantings along Montague Street. They also add compost and mulch to all 50 trees,” Chura told the Brooklyn Heights Press. James Weir Floral is owned by Estela Johannesen.

The floral shop’s staff takes turns taking care of the plants, and are watering them on an almost daily basis, Johannesen told the Heights Press. “The weather has been extra hot so there’s a lot of watering.”

There are 200 window boxes and 50 trees in the Montague Street BID, which runs from Court Street to Hicks, Johannesen said. There are roughly 10 more trees from Hicks to the Promenade.

“This year we added some containers with native evergreens and local annuals. We’re trying to beautify everyplace.” She added, “Whenever we’re out there people say thank you. Moms and nannies tell the kids, ‘This how we have pretty plants.’”

Judges with checklists Brooklynites are serious when it comes to being green. Dozens of prizes are awarded, but it’s neighborhood pride that drives the contest.

On Tuesday, officials from the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, clip boards and cameras in hand, examined the lush plantings in a container at the corner of Montague and Henry streets.

Nina Browne, Brooklyn Botanic Garden’s community program manager, and Mark Fisher, VP of the garden’s Horticulture and Facilities, went down a check list of criteria including mulch levels, soil stewardship, suitability of the plantings, use of color and other benchmarks.

“I’m just one of a big team of judges,” Browne said, adding that the Montague Street BID entered the block in the Best Overall Commercial Block category.

“They’re actually a prior-year winner,” she said. “We’re here judging them in the final round.”

Other categories include Best Overall Residential Block, Best Window Box, Greenest Storefront, Best Street Tree Beds, Best Community Garden Streetscape, Special Commendations and the National Grid Leadership in Sustainable Practices Award.

The National Grid award goes to a block or community garden engaged in “highly visible ecological practices” such as use of rainwater capture, found material “upcycling,” community composting and the like.

Community groups in Brooklyn often go all out in such creative ecology, repurposing old boots, cane chairs and other miscellany as hanging container gardens.

On Lincoln Avenue between Nostrand and New York Avenue in Crown Heights, the Lincoln Civic Block Association has transformed a bathtub into a planter.

The bathtub has “a knotted tree branch coming out,” Sara Bosworth, a Crown Heights resident and managing editor at the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, said.

Bosworth said there are also gardens planted in brightly-colored buckets along the block. “And a fish pond in a large wooden structure with a lot of greenery in it. You wouldn’t know the fish are in there unless you stick your head in it — which I did.”

There had been a toilet with a little garden in it, but that has disappeared, she added.

Browne said Brooklyn Botanic Garden would be notifying the finalists early next week. A press conference to announce the winners will be held August 8.

New seafood bistro & takeout shop open at Brooklyn Bridge Park marina

By Mary Frost Brooklyn Heights Press

Brooklyn Heights locals and visitors to Brooklyn Bridge Park have two new dining options.

Estuary, an ambitious 150-seat bistro headed by Michelin-starred Chef Danny Brown, opened its doors on Tuesday at the northwest corner of One Brooklyn Bridge Park, across from its operator, ONE°15 Brooklyn Marina. Award-winning French pastry chef François Payard is culinary director.

The restaurant includes a raw bar and 48seat outdoor dining terrace with river views.

The interior features a 28-seat wraparound cocktail bar showcasing Brooklyn craft distilleries and breweries. The wine list is curated

by Olivier Flosse, previously the sommelier for Daniel Boulud and Missy Robbins.

Also open is a sister “grab-and-go” shop, Ebb & Flow, which offers boaters and parkgoers take out: traditional viennoiserie (rich, sweet pastries), Pullman sandwiches, filled croissants and over-the-top layer cakes.

Estuary is a brasserie, Payard told theBrooklyn Heights Press on Tuesday, “serving a lot of seafood fare with tartar ... raw bar, a lot of tarts” and a bouillabaisse inspired by Singapore.

On the other hand, Ebb & Flow “is a very small shop. You can pick up a tart, go to the park, go for a walk on the promenade, enjoy the boats,” Payard said. “It’s very different.”

His team created five types of layer cakes because layer cake is an American icon, he said.

“One whimsical, for the kids, two very decadent chocolate, and a layer cheese cake, [also] very decadent.”

“The world-renowned Payard brings decades of experience and award-winning recipes to our Brooklyn location, where his French-inspired fare, locally sourced ingredients and unique menu design will please boaters, New Yorkers and ONE°15’s many guests,” Estelle Lau, ONE°15 Brooklyn Marina’s deputy CEO, said in a statement.

Payard is a third-generation pastry chef who honed his skills at La Tour d’Argent in Paris and Le Bernardin in New York City. He later joined Chef Daniel Boulud for the opening of Restaurant Daniel, where he was named “Pastry Chef of the Year” by Bon Ap-

petit and “Pastry Chef of the Year” by the James Beard Foundation.

Executive Chef Danny Brown is formerly chef-owner of Charc on Manhattan’s Upper East Side and Danny Brown Wine Bar & Kitchen in Queens, which earned him a Miche-

lin Star. He is also an alumnus of Circa Brewing Company, Town, Artisanal and The Cub Room.

Elaine Payne is Ebb & Flow’s bakery manager.

By Noah Goldberg Brooklyn Heights Press

There’s no better place to learn than Twitter. Just kidding. But in this case, Twitter helped.

A Brooklyn Heights Press reporter (me) asked for recommendations from the Twitterverse on books to read to understand modern New York — other than Robert Caro’s “The Power Broker.” And Twitter led us (me) to another land, somewhere far, far away, where character limits don’t exist.

So, here’s what to read if you’re looking to understand this modern metropolis, according to New York City reporters.

——

“Fear City: New York’s Fiscal Crisis and the Rise of Austerity Politics”

By Kim Phillips-Fein “As a newcomer to New York City politics, Fear City helped me better understand the inner workings of city government and how certain dynamics play out (like the long-honored tradition of the mayor and comptroller butting heads). Even though the book doesn’t delve into redlining and other elements that contributed to city problems in the 1970s, it was an easy read and gives me better historical context for when I need to report on politics.”

— Amanda Eisenberg, health care reporter at POLITICO New York ——

“Rudy! An Investigative Biography of Rudy Giuliani”

By Wayne Barrett “This is a great book for anyone who needs a lesson on the recent history of power, politics, prejudice and policing in New York City and state. So many of the key figures and secondary characters are still prominent in New York City and beyond: Giuliani is defending Trump; stop-and-frisk Commissioner Bill Bratton is still weighing in on New York City politics; former Schools Chancellor Rudy Crew is a CUNY president. Even Andrew Cuomo makes a few cameos as liaison for his dad.”

— David Brand, managing editor at the Queens Daily Eagle ——

“When Brooklyn Was Queer”

By Hugh Ryan “’When Brooklyn Was Queer’ was a total crash course for me in Brooklyn’s queer history pre-Stonewall.

It’s full of incredibly brave people who expressed their sexuality before there was widely accepted language to describe it. (And, like today, up against the full force of governments and law enforcement.) You can tell, in every sentence, how excited Ryan was to uncover these stories.”

News Around the Boro BAY RIDGE — U.S. Rep. Max Rose (D-Southern Brooklyn-Staten Island) last week visited the Rio Grande Valley in Texas as part of a bipartisan Homeland Security delegation to examine migrants’ conditions at the Mexican border, according to the Brooklyn Reporter. The group visited facilities near McAllen Texas, including a Border Patrol station, processing center and holding facility. They also visited a Department of Health and Human Services shelter and let with local immigration activists. “Our tour was a powerful experience, and seeing the crisis firsthand only reaffirms what we all know and have seen reported — that human beings are suffering in our custody,” said Rose.  BOROUGHWIDE — The MTA plans to cut back service on three Brooklyn bus routes starting this fall, according to the Brooklyn Paper. Commuters on the B38, which runs from Bushwick to Downtown, will wait up to three minutes longer for buses on weekdays. The B43, which runs along Myrtle Avenue, will have fewer buses on weekdays except during evening rush hours.

The B15, which goes from Bedford-Stuyvesant to JFK Airport, will have longer waits at middays on weekdays. To mitigate the loss of some buses, the MTA is adding longer, articulated buses to the B38.  CITYWIDE — NYCHA Federal Monitor Bart Schwartz released his first report Monday, according to NBC4. This team found that there have been 18 youths with high levels of lead in their blood so far this year. “NYCHA management has been less cooperative with respect to lead paint,” the report said. NYCHA’s calculations of where children under the age of 6 live within the city projects, the report continued, are based on unreliable or out-of-date information. “When we initially pressed on these and other issues, we met with resistance,” the report added.  CROWN HEIGHTS — Switching problems underneath the Eastern Parkway subway’s Franklin Avenue station, where the 5 and 2 trains branch off from the 4 and 3, caused some riders to be stuck underground for about two hours on Monday afternoon, according to Patch. Lights were on in the train and the air conditioning was working, said several straphangers’ tweets, but riders still were frustrated. The situation also caused long lines at other stations as people waited for trains to come in. The MTA warned riders to expect delays on the 2, 3, 4 and 5 trains as far away as Manhattan and the Bronx and suggested the B, Q, D and R trains as an alternative.  DOWNTOWN BROOKLYN — A man suspected of being a serial subway exhibitionist who has repeatedly been seen touching his nether regions while sucking his thumb has been arrested, according to the New York Post. Suspect James Hunt was chased down and tased at the Court Street-Borough Hall station in Brooklyn after resisting arrest on Saturday morning. Earlier, he had allegedly been seen masturbating outside the MTA booth at the station. On June 11, a woman snapped a picture of a person believed to be Hunt masturbating inside the same station, police said. Sgt. Chris O’Connell of the Transit Special Victims Unit said that combating serial subway sex crime offenders has been an “uphill battle” for police. “It’s terrifying for anyone, especially younger victims,” he told the Post.  EAST FLATBUSH — Permits have been filed for a six-story residential building at 1644 New York Ave. in East Flatbush, according to New York YIMBY. The lot, located between Glenwood Road and Avenue H, is three blocks east of the 2 and 5 trains’ Flatbush Avenue station. The building would have 36 apartments, most likely rentals, as well as a cellar and 12 enclosed parking spaces. Demolition permits for the one-family house that is now on the lot were filed this March. Edmond Hakimian is listed as the architect of record.  FLATBUSH — Rapper Sean “P. Diddy” Combs has launched a summer event that took place earlier this week at the Kings Theatre in Flatbush, which also starred his son Justin Combs, Charlemagne da God, Joe Budden, Remy Ma and others, according to the New York Post. In addition to performances, the event will include a live presentation of the TV show “State of the Culture” as well as a panel. This will be the kickoff event for Combs’ Revolt Summit, which, Combs said, “brings together artists, creators and executives to celebrate the culture and empower the community.” After the performance in Brooklyn, the Summit is traveling to Atlanta and Los Angeles.  FLOYD BENNETT FIELD — The biggest inflatable children’s “bounce house” in the world is coming to Aviator Sports and Events Center at Floyd Bennett Field for 10 days, beginning on July 26, according to the Brooklyn Paper. “It’s the biggest bounce house in the world — that’s according to the Guinness Brook of World Records,” said Cameron Craig, founder of Big Bounce America, the bounce house’s operator. The house features a ball pit, climbing towers, basketball hoops and a DJ station to keep the party hopping. “We’ve got a lot going on in

Culex mosquitoes infected with the West Nile virus have been discovered in New York City Health Department monitoring traps in Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island, the city said Wednesday afternoon. The Health Department is urging people to protect themselves from mosquito bites using insect repellent and protective clothing. Above, workers with the New York City Health Department load bags of mosquito larvicide into pods on the side of a helicopter for aerial treatments in 2016.

AP photo by Mark Lennihan there, from limbo competitions, dance competitions, dodgeball,” said Craig. Separate time slots for the house are arranged by age group: toddlers, children age 4-7, children age 8-14 and adults.  FORT GREENE — The Fort Greene Park Conservancy has hired its first-ever executive director — Rosamond Fletcher, according to the Brooklyn Paper. She comes to the conservancy after seven years as director of programs for the Design Trust for Public Space. “Fort Greene Park exists in a unique context with great socioeconomic diversity, so the conservancy has a responsibility to engage with all community members to balance priorities and build consensus,” she said. She looks forward to “talking to people in the park about their experiences in the park, what they care about and how the conservancy can strengthen their connection to the park.”  GOWANUS — An infant defecating in the city’s Douglass and DeGraw Pool in Gowanus shut down the facility in the midst of Saturday’s extreme heat wave, according to the New York Post. Patrons who showed up hoping to beat the heat were incensed with the news. Around 11 a.m., a line began to form outside the gates. After workers informed would-be pool goers of the closure, many of those on line decided to head for the Red Hook Pool instead. Temperatures topped 100 degrees on both Saturday and Sunday.  GREENPOINT — Hundreds of music superstar hopefuls lined up on Tuesday at the Brooklyn Expo Center on Noble Street in Greenpoint to audition for “American Idol,” according to ABC7.

Justin Guarini, runner-up for the show’s first season, was on hand for the auditions. “Talent will take you only so far,” he said. “Your story is going to take you over the top.” Madison Vandenburg, who reached the final three last year, also had some advice for the contestants. “They should take a few minutes for themselves before the audition and just calm down and maybe even warm up a bit before they go on.” Eligible contestants must be between 18 and 25 years old.  MIDWOOD — U.S. Sen. and presidential candidate Bernie Sanders’ early life in Brooklyn taught him some valuable lessons in life, according to the Associated Press. Sanders recalled that he and his brother shared a trundle bed in his parents’ 3½-room apartment, and that the family, while not poor, lived “from paycheck to paycheck.” Losing his mother when he was 18 also made life difficult for Sanders and contributed to his desire to leave the community where he’d grown up.

“Our parents for the most part were American-born, but our grandparents weren’t, and we knew what it was to struggle,” David Sillen, a classmate of Sanders, told the Associated Press.

Sanders has described his family as “lower middle class” and has said his parents frequently quarreled over money.  PARK SLOPE — Learn to make your own neon signs at Brooklyn Glass, located at 13th Street and Third Avenue. Brooklyn Glass

co-founder Avid Ablon told CBS New York that, “You’re almost feeling like it’s dangerous, but it’s safe, so you almost end up with kind of an adrenaline high — playing with hot glass.” For $280, people can learn how to heat glass, how to blow it, how to bend it and how to handle it. “[The students] are very experienced in other fields — architecture, accounting, design — all sorts of things. But they come in to get their hands dirty and actually do something.”  PROSPECT HEIGHTS — A quirky Brooklyn can collector who lived out of her trash-filled car until recently, yet owns millions in Manhattan real estate, faces fines of $5,000 a day because she’s allowed a rowhouse she owns at 451 Convent Ave. to become totally rundown, according to the New York Post. The 122-year-old building has partially collapsed floors, holes in the roofs, missing skylights and windows, and other deteriorating features, city Landmarks Preservation Commission said. The woman, Lisa Fiekowski, told the Post she didn’t know about the lawsuit. She said the damage in the building arose after a fire next door many years ago. Fiekowski added that she was forced to give up her garbage-filled car after it broke down.  PROSPECT-LEFFERTS GARDENS — Jason “Kai” Jacobs, who was recently found guilty of pouncing on and beating to death 66-year-old Marc Faust outside the Food Corp. Deli on Rogers Avenue in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, spoke some chilling words in an interview on Rikers Island last Friday, according to popularcrime.com. “I don’t care about that guy,” Jacobs said. “I don’t owe him anything.” Jacobs insisted, despite evidence to the contrary, that Faust attacked him first. “I had to punch him however much as I needed to.” Prosecutors said the fight began after the two engaged in a “stare down” inside the bodega.  RED HOOK — After years of delay, barbecue master Billy Durney’s Red Hook Tavern, focusing on classic New York food, opened Friday. The restaurant-bar at 329 Van Brunt St. was inspired by some of Durney’s favorite restaurants and bars, such as Corner Bistro and McSorley’s Old Ale House, according to New York Eater. Among its offerings are dry-aged burgers, brick chicken, dry-aged strip steak, chicken liver pate, cheese and charcuterie, country ham croquettes and a romaine wedge salad with bacon. Durney is best known as a partner in Hometown BBQ, also on Van Brunt Street.  SUNSET PARK — Five months after an electrical fire at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Sunset Park cut off power and heat for prisoners for a week, the federal facility caught fire again last Friday afternoon, according to Gothamist. The fire broke out in a laundry room at the jail, but firefighters were able to put it out within an hour. Lawyers who were visiting clients at the jail when the fire broke out said that the facility went into lockdown and reported chemical smoke coming from the vents as they were escorted out of the building Six people suffered minor injuries and were taken to local hospitals for treatment, the FDNY said.

Graveyard Shift performance series coming to Green-Wood Cemetery

BY ALEX WILLIAMSON EDITORIAL@ BROOKLYNREPORTER.COM

Need a reason to live? Here’s one more thing to do before kicking the bucket: spend a summer evening contemplating your mortality at a moonlit show in Green-Wood cemetery.

Green-Wood has teamed up with Pioneer Works to present Graveyard Shift, a performance series that will feature two site-specific shows this summer, commissioned for and inspired by the spooky setting.

Experimental guitarist Yonatan Gat and the Eastern Medicine Singers, a traditional Algonquin pow wow group Gat has been collaborating with since 2017, will perform at the cemetery’s historic Cedar Dell on July 27.

The group plays in a circular formation with the audience surrounding them, rather than keeping the performer on one side and the audience on the other. The circling will get downright concentric when the show comes to the center of Cedar Dell, where the tombstones are already arranged in a ring.

After the performance, the Native American group will lead the audience out of the cemetery with a drumline procession along a moonlit path.

According to Gat, the evening will include music and chanting that’s meant in Algonquin tradition to commune with the dead, and which the group doesn’t normally perform in traditional venues.

“It’s going to be a very intense experience,” said Gat. “One can’t help but kind of wonder about his own mortality and that of their loved ones in a situation like that. And part of the idea behind the series is to not fear those thoughts and to just accept them as perhaps a beautiful part about being alive.”

Interdisciplinary artist and choreographer Kim Brandt will present her new dance performance piece, “Untitled,” at Cedar Dell on August 10. The work will feature performers collapsing mobile structures in “a rumination on circles, spheres, spirals and loops.”

Brandt, who has performed at the Shed in Hudson Yards and MoMA PS1, created the

Yonatan Gat will perform with the traditional Algonquin pow wow group the Eastern Medicine Singers at GreenWood Cemetery on July 27. show especially for the cemetery and has been using Cedar Dell for rehearsals.

While it might sound odd for Green-Wood to find a second life as a concert venue as the graveyard begins to run out of burial space, Graveyard Shift is

really about getting back to the cemetery’s roots, according to the series’ co-organizer Bethany Tabor.

Tabor points out that, in its early years, Green-Wood was something of a proto-Prospect Park and treated as much as

a picnic ground as a burial ground by the Victorians.

“They had a very different relationship to death in that time period. Since then, that relationship has been diminished and harmed in my opinion.” said Tabor. “Events

and programs happening at the cemetery sort of brings us back to that time where we in Western society can mingle with each other and make the cemetery a social space again.”

Eye on REAL ESTATE Come see the M-Crown area CB8 wants to rezone THE BOROUGH PRESIDENT SUPPORTS THIS PROPOSAL FOR NORTH CROWN HEIGHTS.

By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams backs a neighborhood-led upzoning proposal in North Crown Heights — rezoning that, if enacted, would require developers to create space for job-generating light industrial and artisanal “maker” businesses and community facilities in new residential buildings.

Come take a stroll around the area that has been the focus of several years of effort by Community Board 8’s MCrown Subcommittee, which crafted the rezoning proposal.

As the Brooklyn Eagle reported, Adams announced his support for it just last week and called it “a new model for mixed development.”

Adams is part of a coalition of citywide advocates and community leaders that sup-

The Franklin Avenue Shuttle runs through the M-Crown zone. ports the proposed rezoning.

The Department of City Planning is in talks with the M-Crown Subcommittee about the proposed rezoning.

As last week’s Eagle story mentions, agency spokesperson Rachaele Raynoff said DCP is “pleased to continue to work with community boards, elected officials and neighborhood groups, including in Crown Heights, on creative solutions that bring more housing and good jobs, in a broad array of sectors, closer to more New Yorkers, and which allow an evolving

range of businesses to locate in close proximity to residences.”

The area includes blocks bounded by Atlantic Avenue, Grand Avenue, Bergen Street and Franklin Avenue and a stretch of Atlantic Avenue that extends to Vanderbilt Avenue in Prospect Heights.

It has interesting businesses in it plus a sprinkling of beautiful rowhouses and repurposed manufacturing buildings. It’s also riddled with vacant lots and empty industrial buildings — properties that present opportunities for development in which housing would cross-subsidize manufacturing space, M-Crown Subcommittee members believe.

P.S. In case you didn’t know, CB8 represents the neighborhoods of North Crown Heights, Prospect Heights and Weeksville.

1916. Now 925 Bergen St. is rented out to commercial tenants, including numerous artists.

— Continued on page 11INB —

This is Long Island Railroad Sub-Station No. 1 on Atlantic Avenue.

For those of us who are eye-minded, getting a good look at the buildings and vacant lots in the M-Crown zone is a helpful way to draw our minds into this unfolding rezoning story.

I did not make up the word “eye-minded.” Recently, it was Dictionary.com’s Word of the Day. According to that posting, eye-minded means “disposed to perceive one's environment in visual terms and to recall sights more vividly than sounds or smells, etc.”

So. I strolled around the MCrown area and took pictures.

I started on Bergen Street, whose north side is within the M-Crown zone. One thing that caught my eye was a vast grassy lot behind the Brooklyn Pentacostal Assembly.

Another thing was redbrick 925 Bergen St., designed by architect John Platte and built in 1885. It’s part of a complex of buildings formerly owned by Nassau Brewery Co. They’re all listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Eye on REAL ESTATE The M-Crown zone is a mix of auto repair shops, industrial buildings and housing.

Now it’s time to check out Atlantic Avenue. The south side of this busy speedway is included in the M-Crown zone.

There are numerous auto repair shops, service stations and car washes.

There’s a surprise at 1020 Atlantic Ave. — a distinguished building known as Long Island Railroad Sub-Station No. 1.

New York City residents from a variety of cultural backgrounds would rather shop at live poultry markets than buy packaged chicken at grocery stores.

Back on Dean Street, afternoon car traffic was backed up. Luckily I was on foot. I turned onto Grand Avenue and walked past a busy tire repair business to the corner of Pacific Street.

On the corner at 977-985 Pacific St., there was a vacant field with weeds as tall as I am. I wonder if Elichai Pariente knows that a part of the lot’s chain-link fence has fallen down.

Finance Department records show that he’s the authorized signatory of

The eye-catching house on the corner is 629 Classon Ave. — Continued from page 10INB — At Franklin Avenue I turned the corner and swung around to Dean Street. Arguably the M-Crown zone’s best known building is there — 1000 Dean St., which Brooklyn Flea co-founder Jonathan Butler and his partners turned into a hip office building a half-decade ago.

The century-old building was formerly a service station for Studebaker cars.Butler and his partners recently sold 1000 Dean St. for $55.95 million to LIVWRK, city Finance Department records indicate.
