Stinko ginkgos bring smell of autumn to the city By Alex Williamson Brooklyn Heights Press

Fall is in full swing, and few scents signal the season’s arrival in the city like the pukey odor of the female ginkgo biloba tree. The trees shower the sidewalks with their fleshy seed pods this time each year, creating an obstacle course for anyone trying to pass beneath their branches without squishing a stink bomb under their shoe. The ginkgo is known for its golden, fan-like leaves, which have been found in the fossil record dating back over 270 million years. Dried ginkgo leaves have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries to ease a cough or improve circulation. For anyone brave enough to scrape away the pod’s smelly flesh, the seeds within are edible and, reportedly, pretty tasty. But why plant the ginkgo along city streets, where the falling fruit smells up the sidewalks? Because the ginkgo is sturdy enough to survive life in the city — where it’s met with pollution, disease, insects, pet waste, soil compaction, road salt, wind and piled up snow — while many tree species aren’t. The ginkgo earned its reputation for hardiness in early 19th century London, when coal pollution from industrialization was killing off urban trees in droves. The ornamental ginkgos imported from Asia and replanted in the city’s botanical gardens seemed unfazed by the smog, however, and arborists took note. The Parks Department continues planting the trees to this day because it’s “a great street tree,” according to Anessa Hodgson, a spokesperson for NYC Parks. The 2015 Tree Census found that the ginkgo ranks among the top 10 most common trees in Brooklyn, where the species makes up just over three percent of all mapped trees. In Manhattan, more than nine percent of all trees are ginkgos. So why doesn’t the city simply plant male ginkgos, if the female trees are the smelly offenders? That has been the plan for decades, according to Hodgson, but the smelly females aren’t going anywhere. “We stopped planting female ginkgos in the 1990s because of their smell. However, there are still a few female ginkgos growing in NYC from before that policy took effect, as we do not remove healthy trees,” Hodgson said. Even gender control isn’t a perfect solution, since, much like a resourceful velociraptor in “Jurassic Park,” the ginkgo can be a sex switcher. Although the trees are “born” either male or female (unlike some tree species), individual branches have been known to change sexes in rare instances when

The female gingko’s falling seed pods have a pungent, vomit-like odor. there is a male-female imbalance. In other words, life, uh, finds a way. The city’s ginkgos receive occasional backlash from locals who’d rather see female trees chopped down than deal with the smell. According to Hodgson, those residents are missing the big picture.

TECH, POLITICS AND GROWTH The new Brooklyn Chamber president’s plan for the future By Michael Stahl Brooklyn Heights Press

The Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce has a new head. With an eye on the long-term, he’s rolling out a programming slate to transform the 101-year-old organization, engage the tech community and beef up its political clout. The organization’s new president, Randy Peers, presented his leadership agenda during the Chamber’s annual meeting and trade show Oct. 23, emphasizing a strategy crafted around the borough’s changing industry, and a plan to challenge aggressively anti-business policies from local legislators. Peers told members that the organization will offer new microloans to small businesses, establish a political action committee for pro-business candidates, launch a smartphone app and take additional measures to “strengthen the borough’s business community and build the best Brooklyn we can build.”

The proposal appeared to chart a path for redefining the Chamber, shedding a little light on the thinking of its newest leader, a Brooklyn native who may finally provide a stabilizing presence in the president’s chair, which has held five occupants the past three years. “Sorry if I get a little choked up about this, but a lot of who I am is wrapped up in this place,” Peers told the Brooklyn Heights Press in a recent interview at the Chamber’s 335 Adams St. headquarters. Peers, 49, served as the body’s vice president for economic development between 2002 and 2006. A self-described “Canarsie kid,” Peers attended Brooklyn College and, later, New York University, where he earned an MBA in public administration. He then became chairperson of Sunset Park’s Community Board 7. After his first stint at the Chamber, he served as CEO of Opportunities for a Better Tomorrow — a Brooklyn-based workforce development organization that has since expanded to Queens and the Bronx. Two-and-a-half years ago, however, Peers shipped out to southeastern Pennsylvania to lead the Greater Reading Chamber Alliance, which supports business development in Berks County. But now, Peers is back in his native Brooklyn, filling the Chamber president’s chair after several rapid leadership change-overs at the organization. “The Chamber has got a really proud history, and I think there’s no doubt they could benefit from having a leader that is going to be able to stay there and grow the organization for years to come,” Jonathan Bowles, executive director of the Center for an Urban Future, an independent policy organization that focuses on economic growth in New York, told the Heights Press. He called Peers an “exceptional” choice as president. After a nearly five-year stint as Chamber president, Carlo Scissura stepped down in December 2016 to head up the New York Building Congress, a citywide construction industry trade group. Scissura’s successor at the Chamber, Andrew Hoan, left in May 2018, after his wife, Karina, a gynecologist, accepted a position at the Portland Clinic in Oregon.

New York still hung on whether to OK mobile sports betting By Wayne Parry The Associated Press

New York is unlikely to approve statewide mobile sports betting anytime soon. Despite a push from lawmakers who favor letting people bet on their phones or laptops, sports betting remains restricted to in-person wagers at upstate casinos. At the Sports Betting USA conference Tuesday in New York, two Democratic lawmakers who have been pushing for legal sports betting said they’ll try to put a provision in the state budget allowing mobile sports betting when the Legislature convenes in January. But Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo continues to question whether such

betting is constitutional. “It’s not a question of if; it’s when,” said state Sen. Joseph Addabbo Jr. “It’s going to happen. People want to bet in New York. They don’t want to get in the car and drive two hours upstate, and they’d rather not get in the car and go over the bridge to New Jersey, but they’re doing that now.” When New York might offer statewide mobile betting remains anyone’s bet. It is quickly becoming the industry standard in the U.S., with 80 percent of New Jersey sports betting revenue coming via smartphones or laptops. Addabbo and Assemblyman J. Gary Pretlow said a report on the pros and cons of mobile sports betting was supposed to have been released within the

Resorts Casino Hotel in Atlantic City, N.J., which partnered with DraftKings and The Stars Group to offer sports betting. The casino was the first to be approved for online and mobile sports betting in New Jersey. AP Photo/Wayne Parry

next few weeks but has been delayed until April. “I know what the report’s going to say: It’s going to say, ‘Do it,’” Pretlow said. New York would be the largest state to have full-blown sports betting. It and California represent the holy grail for the nascent sports betting industry, which is currently led by Nevada, with New Jersey nipping at its heels. California could hold a legislative hearing on sports betting by the end of November. But in addition to lining up political support, lawmakers in the Golden State must also reconcile their desire to offer sports betting with a fear from tribal casinos that poorly crafted legislation could hurt their business. A bill for mobile sports betting in New York passed the Senate but was not approved in the Assembly, due in part to worries that Cuomo would veto it. A spokesman for the governor said Tuesday that since May 2018, Cuomo “has consistently said he has constitutional concerns with mobile sports betting.” In the meantime, New Jersey’s fast-growing sports betting industry continues to reap millions from New Yorkers driving, taking a train or even riding bicycles across bridges just far enough into New Jersey for geolocation technology on their betting apps to recognize that they are within the state’s borders. Pretlow estimated that 30 percent to 40 percent of money currently being wagered in New Jersey would be bet in New York once the state approved mobile betting. Daniel Wallach, a Florida attorney and expert on sports law, said New York would be a perfect market for in-stadium betting. A provision that would have allowed pro sports stadiums and arenas to offer sports betting on their premises was included in the bill that died in last year’s session. “Imagine Madison Square Garden not just as the ‘World’s Most Famous Arena’ but as the world’s most famous sports book,” he said. “A casino or racetrack sports book holds a few hundred people. (Madison Square Garden) holds 20,000.” Jamaal Lesane, senior vice president for legal and business affairs with The Madison Square Garden Company, said, “We’ll get there eventually.” Lesane said the Garden has been in talks with supportive elected officials and Cuomo’s office to express support for a mobile sports betting bill, adding, “We are cautiously optimistic.” Associated Press writer Marina Villeneuve in Albany contributed to this report.

State bill could force city to permit more street cart vendors By Alex Williamson Brooklyneagle.com

A bill introduced last week in Albany could end the city’s cap on the number of licenses issued for street cart vendors. The bill, introduced by State Senator Jessica Ramos, who represents parts of Ditmars Steinway, East Elmhurst, Jackson Heights and Corona, would forbid cities from limiting the number of cart vendor permits, curtail the city’s ability to ban benders from parks and give vendors more freedom to choose where they set up shop. The bill would also vacate operators’ past citations related to sidewalk vending. “Over the past 30 years, cities throughout the state have made it increasingly difficult for vendors to make a living, through the denial of vendor permits and the criminalization of the industry,” the text of the bill’s summary reads, in part. The city’s limited pool of legal street cart permits has created a licensing black market, in which permits that originally cost $200 from the city are illegally resold for as much as $25,000. Other vendors have opted to sell their wares with no permit, legal or otherwise, risking big fines and having their carts confiscated. Since the 1980s, the city has issued around 4,000 street cart vendor permits annually, even as the city’s population has grown. The Street Vendor Project, a

pro-vendor group and part of The Urban Justice Center, estimates there are as many as 20,000 street vendors in New York City. “Lifting the 36-year-old cap on food vending permits will provide opportunities for thousands of (mostly) immigrants to legalize and formalize their small businesses,” said Matthew Shapiro, a spokesperson for SVP. “This cap on permits has been in place far too long and we are proud that Senator Ramos has taken action to support thousands of hard-working people.” A bill introduced last year by City Councilmember Margaret Chin would gradually increase the number of permits the city issues by 400 each year for a decade. That bill received a hearing but has had no further action since April. Other city lawmakers have focused on ridding their districts’ sidewalks of vendors, citing overcrowding, fumes, health code violations and unfair competition with brick and mortar establishments, which have to pay often sky-high commercial rents. Last year, Councilmember Peter Koo successfully pushed through a ban on street vendors along Main Street in downtown Flushing, once a corridor famous for abundant and cheap Asian street fare. Ramos’ bill has been referred to the State Senate’s Rules Committee. It does not yet have a listed Assembly sponsor.

New sci-fi novel imagines the ultimate out-of-body experience During a late-night experiment in Midwestern barn, a scientist searching for a cure for Alzheimer’s finds her consciousness suddenly transferred into her husband’s body. Twenty years later, that technology is replicated, marketed and has transformed her life — and the world as we know it.

In “Anyone,” a forthcoming novel from comic book writer Charles Soule, everybody has the opportunity to be someone else, for a price. The technology, called “flash,” allows people to temporarily occupy another person’s skin, for travel, warfare or just plain fun. But a shady black market for body rental is forming, and the

unregulated underground is leading to a startling rise in reckless sex, drug use and much worse. “Anyone” is the second novel by Charles Soule, the New York Times-bestselling author of “The Oracle Year,” which was named Goodreads.com’s 2018 Sci-Fi Book of the Year. He lives in Brooklyn.

Accusations fly as elected officials join in Housing Works unionization fight By Mary Frost BQ Daily Eagle

In an emotional confrontation on a sidewalk in Downtown Brooklyn on Monday, elected officials charged the non-profit Housing Works with union busting, while Housing Works CEO Charles King accused officials of being at the beck and call of the “politically powerful” Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union. The pols marched to Housing Works headquarters on Willoughby Street with a letter signed by more than 50 elected officials calling on the charity to sign a neutrality agreement with the union. Signers include Council Speaker Corey Johnson and Comptroller Scott Stringer. Workers at Housing Works describe burnout, low pay, unmanageable caseloads and lack of training, and some say there is discrimination or harassment on the job. Last week, more than 100 of them walked off their jobs and asked that their employer “remain neutral” about their push to unionize. Public Advocate Jumaane Williams said he was disappointed “to have learned an organization whose work and mission I’ve supported over the years has allowed a situation like this to not only manifest, but also fester.” The workers were backed up by State Sen. Julia Salazar, who represents Bushwick and Williamsburg. “It’s important that folks don’t have to work in an environment they don’t feel safe in, and that folks get paid for the work they actually do,” Salazar said. “We’re constantly fighting to end poverty and homelessness.” King, however, painted the officials as hypocrites. “The elected officials who signed this letter … largely dictate the salaries and benefits we pay and the

workloads we must produce,” he said. He added that the budget for New York State’s Home Health program, which coordinates health care for low-income people with chronic conditions, has been cut three years in a row, “even while Housing Works has strained its resources to increase pay and decrease caseloads every year since the program started.” “It’s these cuts that lead to cutting jobs and wages, or preventing us from increasing them as we would like to,” King said. King, one of the original founders of the decades-old charity, said Housing Works won’t stand in the way of employees’ efforts to unionize, but won’t sign the agreement, which he said contained some “illegal” provisions. The agreement would require Housing Works “to effectively endorse this union to its staff [and] provide material support to RWDSU’s organizing effort at the cost of our clients’ and staff’s privacy, even while denying our employees the right to a secret ballot,” King said. One provision he said he objected to was the requirement that Housing Works pay employees while they attend a 90-minute meeting about the unionization process. King told reporters he hadn’t heard of employees’ offer to drop this provision. A union spokesperson told the Brooklyn Eagle that workers sent a delegation and showed him the amended agreement. Williams attempted to get some forward movement, shaking King’s hand as he described workers’ willingness to negotiate the neutrality agreement. King did not appear to acknowledge the workers’ concession, however. RWDSU said that the fact that Housing Works hired a firm notorious for union busting, Seyfarth Shaw

LLP, shows where it stands. Seyfarth Shaw specializes in defending companies against employee claims. Neil Reed, a mental health advocate at a Housing Works clinic in Downtown Brooklyn, told the Eagle that clinic workers didn’t always feel safe on the job, and management isn’t doing enough to protect them. “We have incidents about three times a week,” he said. “We called the cops just this morning. If we had a union, we’d have a voice. We never see Charles [King] unless

there’s an event.” Reed said filing incident reports had no effect. He recently filed one because a psychiatrist “made a racist remark,” he said. “I heard nothing,” he said. “That was three weeks ago. Did someone say I’m a whistleblower? Do I have to watch my back?” King said that Housing Works would not disparage RWDSU or “retaliate in any way against employees who favor the union. And if a majority of Housing Works employees vote

for a union, we will bargain in good faith. In the meantime, we will continue to carry on the work we’ve been doing for the last 30 years, providing housing, health care and other services to the most marginalized New Yorkers.” The organization has a long and lauded history of fighting for people with HIV/AIDS, providing housing assistance, social services and health care through clinics funded largely by Housing Works thrift shops and a bookstore.

Early voting is done: Here’s how it went By Kelly Mena BQ Daily Eagle

Now that New York finished its first early voting election process — which consisted of nine days and 248 polling sites across the state — how did it go? According to the preliminary numbers from New York City’s Board of Elections, which operated 61 early voting sites, more than 60,000 people voted across the five boroughs — about the same number of Brooklyn votes that went to Jumaane Williams in the special election for public advocate back in February. Approximately 6,700 votes were cast a day. Early voting began on Saturday, Oct. 26, and ran until Nov. 3. Manhattan had the most voters participate with more than 19,800 votes cast. Brooklyn came in second with nearly 18,000 votes being cast across 18 polling sites, according to the preliminary count. Queens saw 13,129 votes cast, and the Bronx and Staten Island each accounted for fewer than 5,000 votes. Overall, more than 256,000 people voted early in New York State, the state Board of Elections said, Most votes were cast Sunday, Nov. 3. The state is the 39th to implement an early voting system in a bid to get more voters out to the polls. In 2020, there will be 27 days of early voting. In addition to the nine days preceding the general election, there will be nine days ahead of the presidential primary on April 28, and nine more in advance of the state and federal primaries on June 23. The state allocated $10 million in the Fiscal Year 2020 Budget for the process. “Statewide turnout, unofficially, is approximately 1.9 percent over the nine days. With nothing to com-

pare it to, we don’t know yet if that is high or low. After the election, we will get together with our local commissioners, vendors and other stakeholders and review everything,” said Todd Valentine, the state Board of Elections’ co-executive director. “We’ll look at what worked well, what didn’t work so well, what adjustments need to be made to improve the experience and what if any recommendations we may want to make to state lawmakers.” Early voting according to one Brooklyn Eagle reporter, was “amazing” and “is the way voting is supposed to be.” Voters who were able to participate in the process were supposedly met with friendly election staffers and a computerized system — part of voting reform legislation passed earlier this year — instead of the traditional printed polling books, that made the process quick and easy. The polling sites were also said to be free of long lines and confusion. The polls were closed on Monday, Nov. 4, ahead of the conventional, always on-time Election Day of Tuesday, Nov. 5. This year’s general election ballot included races for public advocate, Queens district attorney, Council District 45 in Brooklyn and five ballot referendums to amend the City Charter. As part of the five ballot proposals, voters got the chance to weigh in on ranked choice voting, changes to the Civilian Complaint Review Board, rules for government ethics, a rainy-day fund for the city budget and a longer timetable for public input during the ULURP process, which is triggered when a developer applies for changes or exceptions to the city’s zoning laws.


Columnist sues Trump for calling her sex assault claim a lie By Jennifer Peltz

The Associated Press

An advice columnist who says President Donald Trump raped her in a department store dressing room in the 1990s sued him Monday for calling her a liar he had never even met. E. Jean Carroll’s lawsuit, filed Monday in New York, says Trump “smeared her integrity, honesty and dignity — all in the national press” when he responded to her allegations, first broached in New York magazine this past June as Carroll prepared to release a book. “Nobody is entitled to conceal acts of sexual assault behind a wall of defamatory falsehoods and deflections,” Carroll’s lawyer Roberta Kaplan wrote in the suit. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages and a retraction of Trump’s statements. A message requesting comment was sent to a law firm that has represented Trump in other cases. Carroll, a longtime advice columnist for Elle magazine, is among over a dozen women who have accused Trump of sexual misconduct or sexual assault, predating his presidency. She isn’t the only one to sue over his denials.

Another such case, filed by Summer Zervos — a onetime contestant on his former reality show, “The Apprentice” — is ongoing in the same Manhattan courthouse where Carroll has filed her claim. In Zervos’ case, Trump’s lawyers have said his statements weren’t defamatory, and they have tried unsuccessfully so far to get the suit dismissed or at least delayed until he is no longer in office. Carroll says she bumped into the then-real estate developer in the high-end store Bergdorf Goodman in 1995 or 1996, and he asked her to help him pick out a gift for “a girl” and eventually suggested lingerie. He suggested Carroll try on a see-through bodysuit, she said, and after a joking exchange, they went into a dressing room. She says Trump then pushed her against a wall, pulled down her tights and raped her as she struggled. Carroll said she eventually broke free and fled. Carroll said there were no attendants in the dressing room area. She didn’t file a police report but said she did tell two journalist friends. Both have corroborated that they were told.

Trump said in June that Carroll was “totally lying,” the accusation was “fake news” and she was “not my type.” “No pictures? No surveillance? No video? No reports? No sales attendants around??” he said in one of various statements and interviews. “People should pay dearly for such false accusations.” He also said he had never met her, though a 1987 photo shows him and Carroll in a photo with their spouses at the time. “Give me a break,” Trump said of the photo, noting it shows his back to the camera. Carroll says she stayed mum for decades because she feared legal retribution from Trump and reputational damage, among other reasons. But ultimately, she said, she developed qualms about giving advice to readers without disclosing her own accounts of sexual assault. Carroll’s book, which also recounts other assaults Carroll says she experienced during her life, came out in July. The suit says Trump harmed Carroll’s reputation and career. Many readers have shied from writing to a woman the president has called a liar, the suit says.

Lawyer: Trump’s phone records back details of woman’s claim By Jennifer Peltz The Associated Press

President Donald Trump’s cell phone records show a call to a former “Apprentice” contestant on a day when she says he subjected her to unwanted kissing and groping, according to a court filing. Records filed in Summer Zervos’ defamation suit and obtained Monday by the Associated Press indicate that Zervos got a call from Trump’s phone on a day in December 2007, when she says he rang to invite her to dinner. She says she went hoping for career advice and ended up being sexually assaulted. The records also show a call to Zervos from Trump’s phone the next afternoon and calls from her to his phone in the following months. Her lawyers say the phone calls support that she’s telling the truth. Trump lawyer Marc Kasowitz said Monday that Zervos’ claims “are entirely meritless and not corroborated by any documents.” Zervos, a California restaurateur, was on the Trump-hosted reality show “The Apprentice” in 2006. She says she later contacted him in hopes of furthering her career. Zervos says the then-businessman made unwanted advances twice in December 2007: once in his Trump Tower office in New York, and later at the Beverly Hills Hotel in California. She was among more than a dozen women who came forward during his 2016 presidential campaign to accuse him of sexual assault or sexual harassment over the years. Trump called them “liars” trying to harm him with “100 percent fabricated” stories. He also issued a statement denying Zervos’ allegations and retweeted a message calling them “a hoax.” Both Trump and Zervos are Republicans. Zervos sued Trump for defamation, saying he damaged her reputation by calling her a liar. The phone records show “that numerous specific details that Ms. Zervos has provided about those interactions are true,” Zervos attorney Mariann Wang wrote in a previously redacted portion of an Oct. 24 court filing. At the time, Trump’s lawyers were objecting to public disclosure of the phone records, but they have since dropped their opposition. The phone records are for a now-defunct Trump cellphone number that leaked during the campaign; he later invited people to call it for a campaign message. The phone records show a call to Zervos from Los Angeles on Dec. 21, 2007, when Trump’s calendar shows he was due to fly there and head to the Beverly Hills Hotel. A call to Zervos from Beverly Hills followed the next afternoon, a day when Zervos has said she and Trump briefly met at his Los Angeles-area golf course. His calendar records, which emerged previously in the lawsuit, show he was scheduled to be there. The phone records also show two calls from Zervos to Trump’s phone on Dec. 26, 2007. Zervos has said she’d gotten what she considered a low-salary job offer from the golf club and told Trump she felt she “was being penalized for not sleeping with him.” The records show two more calls from Zervos in January and February 2008. She has said she had “a subsequent conversation about a job” with Trump and was told to stop using his private number, but she hasn’t specified when. Zervos is seeking a retraction, an apology and damages. Trump’s lawyers have said his statements were opinions and he had a free-speech right to express them. His attorneys have

Nets gain traction for long road ahead Hold off Pelicans at Barclays ahead of season-high five-game trip By John Torenli, Sports Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle

With a season-high five-game road trip looming on their schedule, the Brooklyn Nets needed a feel-good win Monday night at Downtown’s Barclays Center. They got just that in the form of a 135-125 victory over the visiting New Orleans Pelicans behind 39 points from Kyrie Irving and a double-digit scoring effort from all five of their starters in front of 17,194 fans on the corner of Atlantic and Flatbush avenues. “Obviously, we wanted to come out and win this game and really put a statement down for the rest of the week before we go on this long road trip so it was good,” noted Irving, who finished 13-of-21 from the field and 11-of-11 at the line while handing out nine assists. Brooklyn, which played five of its first seven games at Barclays, will now prepare to head out on an eight-day odyssey through Portland, Phoenix, Utah, Denver and Chicago before returning to our fair borough on Nov. 18. The Nets (3-4) will likely spend the next several days working on protecting the ball at their Sunset Park practice facility after committing 23 turnovers against the Pelicans, many of which occurred in the third quarter, when New Orleans put up 48 points and nearly stole the game from Brooklyn. “We’re gonna look at it. We’re gonna talk about it,” said Nets Head Coach Kenny Atkinson, whose team leads the league with 19.3 giveaways per contest. “My gut is it’s happening a lot in scramble situations. ... I think we’re rushing into a lot of mistakes.” Caris LeVert scored 23 points; Joe Harris added 19, including a game-sealing three-pointer with just under a minute to play; and Jarrett Allen added 18 points and 10 rebounds for Brooklyn, which will open its five-game journey Friday night against the Trail Blazers. “We have three days until the next game,” noted Allen. “Coach already said we’re going to be working on a lot of things that we need to so really just slowing down. I know I had a couple of them so if you look, a lot of people had the same kind of mistakes.” Taurean Prince finished with 12 points and 11 rebounds and Garrett Temple added 13 points off the bench for the Nets, who wiped away some of the bad taste left over from blowing a 14-point lead during their loss in Detroit Saturday night. Irving, who ranks second in the NBA with 31.7 points per game thus far this season, established a franchise record with 222 points through his first seven contests with the Nets. But the six-time All-Star and former NBA champion was much more interested in registering a win than piling up records. “We had an intense focus. I know you could feel it out there,” Irving said. “I was really just trying to create great energy with the basketball throughout the game and get to the free-throw line and

create easy opportunities for myself and my teammates.” Brandon Ingram scored a career-high 40 points for the Pelicans, who dropped to 1-6 on the season and 0-4 on the road, but Atkinson’s team found a way to get critical stops in crunch time, something that had not come so easily during these first three weeks of this campaign. “We just found a way. Crazy game,” Atkinson admitted. “A lot of back and forth. Ingram was phenomenal, of course. He hit some tough shots. “We took a combination, a haymaker, however you want to call it, couple left hooks in the jaw in the third quarter, and I thought in the fourth quarter we did a better job and slowed them down a little.”  In local college sports news, the St. Francis Brooklyn men’s soccer team managed a 1-1 double-overtime draw against Sacred Heart on Saturday at Poly Prep Country Day School, keeping its Northeast Conference Tournament hopes alive entering the regular season’s final weekend. The Terriers (7-5-2, 3-4-1 NEC) will simply need a win over LIU, which has already secured a postseason berth, this Sunday at 1 p.m., in Brookville, N.Y., to secure the fourth and final seed in the tournament, which will begin Nov. 15. Senior defender Alexis Petit scored the lone goal for SFC, which is deadlocked with Robert Morris for fourth place but owns a tiebreaker advantage via a 5-0 blanking of the Colonials on Oct. 20.

The Nets are hoping DeAndre Jordan’s ankle injury, suffered during the fourth quarter of Monday night’s win over New Orleans, won’t hinder his participation during Brooklyn’s season-high five-game road trip, which begins Friday night in Portland. AP Photo by Mary Altaffer.

Center DeAndre Jordan suffered an apparent ankle sprain during the fourth quarter of Monday night’s win, but there was no word from Atkinson regarding the hulking pivotman’s availability for the upcoming road trip. Jordan had four points, five rebounds, two assists, a steal and two blocked shots in 16 minutes off the bench before stepping on J.J. Redick’s ankle on a trip up the court, forcing his immediate exit. ... Brooklyn shot 53.3 percent from the floor Monday, including a 39 percent effort from long range. Harris and LeVert each hit four three-pointers to pace Brooklyn’s attack from beyond the arc. ... After visiting Portland on Friday night, the Nets will be in Phoenix on Sunday, travel to Utah next Tuesday and make a stop in Denver next Thursday before wrapping up their trip on Saturday Nov. 16 in Chicago.

News From Your Neighborhood BABE RUTH’S B’KLYN DODGER UNIFORM IS UP FOR AUCTION

BOROUGHWIDE — Baseball great Babe Ruth is known for his years of stardom as a player, first with the Boston Red Sox and then with the New York Yankees. But Ruth spent one year as a first-base coach with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1938, according to Atlas Obscura. Following his retirement in 1934, Ruth had been angling unsuccessfully for a job as manager or coach with the Yankees, and when the opportunity to coach at Ebbets Field presented itself, Ruth eagerly accepted. Unfortunately, Ruth constantly got into quarrels with the team’s star shortstop, Leo Durocher, and the two came to blows in the clubhouse in October. The team sided with Durocher, who became player-manager the next year, Atlas Obscura reported. Ruth’s Dodger uniform is being auctioned by Culver City, California-based Julien’s Auctions and is estimated to be worth between $200,000 and $400,000. 

SOME ELECTION WORKERS ARE DRIVEN IN BLACK CARS

CITYWIDE —Some Board of Election workers are chauffeured around town in black cars to the tune of $9 million in public funds, according to the New York Post. More than 25 of the pricey cars were parked outside the Brooklyn BOE building on Adams Street last week, while another 20 were parked at the BOE’s Queens site. Several drivers were spotted by the Post napping in their cars or watching TV on their phones before they were called on to drive. The average election inspector who works behind a desk, of course, does not get a limo. 

BAY RIDGE DEVELOPMENT TO REPLACE PARKING LOT

BAY RIDGE — Permits have been filed for a five-story mixeduse building at 302 81st St. in Bay Ridge, according to New York YIMBY. The lot, which now houses a parking facility and is on the corner of 81st Street and Third Avenue, is four blocks south of the R train’s 77th Street subway station. The building will have 32 apartments, most likely rentals, and some ground-floor commercial space. Meridian Properties is listed as the owner, and S. Wieder Architect is listed as the architect of record. The site is surrounded by small two- and three-story buildings. 

TREYGER PRAISES ED DEPT. FOR LIFTING HIRING FREEZE

BENSONHURST — City Councilmember Mark Treyger (D-Coney Island-Bensonhurst-Bath Beach) applauded the Department of Education’s recent decision to lift the hiring freeze on guidance counselors in the city’s public schools. “As a former teacher in our city’s schools, I’ve been an adamant advocate for social and emotional support in schools for our students. I’m thrilled that the Department of Education has heeded my call to lift the hiring freeze on guidance counselors.” Currently, there are more than 200 schools that do not have a fulltime guidance counselor. Counselors serve multiple roles in the schools, often helping students choose a college. 

CHARTER SCHOOL DOESN’T FOLLOW THROUGH WITH FUNDS

BROWNSVILLE — A charter school in Brownsville promised to enroll four students in a special business skills program at Google’s offices in Manhattan, but failed to come through with the funding, according to the New York Post. “Honestly, I thought it wasn’t true,” Adeyinka Adedewe, a 16-year-old senior at Achievement First East Brooklyn, told the Post. He added that he was shocked when he was told the school could no longer pay the $2,500 tuition. Adedewe and the three others were accepted into the Whatever It Takes program, which works with Google and teaches leadership and business skills. 

NEW BAKERY SHALL NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE

CROWN HEIGHTS — The James Beard award-nominated bakery Bien Cuit is planning to open a Crown Heights location this weekend. The ovens are going in at 741 Franklin Ave. and the awning is going up, according to New York Eater. Chef-owner Zachary Golpher and partner Kate Wheatcroft opened Bien Cuit’s original Boerum Hill location in 2011. “Bien Cuit’s miche bread, made from a blend of rye and wheat flours fermented for 68 hours, is something of a calling card,” New York Eater said. Seasonal pies for Thanksgiving, like miso caramel pumpkin pie and smoked chocolate custard pie, will also be available at the new location. 

VEGAN CAFÉ CLOSES ON MANHATTAN AVE.

GREENPOINT — A vegan café with a feline motif, Brooklyn Whiskers, has now closed its location at 1007 Manhattan Ave. in Greenpoint, according to Greenpointers. “We finally conceded that this location is not the future of #brooklynwhiskers Greenpoint,” an online announcement stated. The café also

Long-time minor leaguer Cole Bardreau accepts congratulations from the Islanders’ bench Tuesday night after scoring his first career goal on a penalty shot to put New York in front to stay. AP photo by Mary Altaffer has a flagship location at 1037 Broadway in Bushwick and its original space at 760 Dodworth St., which is currently closed but could reopen “as soon as this week,” according to an Instagram post from Brooklyn Whiskers. 

PLANT SHOP MOVES WITHIN GREENPOINT

GREENPOINT — On its second anniversary, the plant shop Soft Opening at 570 Manhattan Ave. has moved to a new location at 197 Nassau Ave., which coincidentally was its original location. The store is also planning to open an online store. Those who wish to shop at the Nassau Avenue location can still do so by appointment, at least in the near future, according to Greenpointers. Soft Opening’s owner Kristin McLaughlin also owns an interior plant design service, Plant You Up. 

SALES OF APT. BUILDINGS DOWN IN BROOKLYN

BOROUGHWIDE — Sales of apartment buildings have slowed, and unit volume of buildings sold has fallen 74 percent, in Brooklyn compared to a year earlier, according to Brownstoner. The real estate website blames the Tenant Protection Act, which “essentially [rolled] back vacancy decontrol passed in the early ’90s. … Landlords have said that removing incentives to redevelop buildings will cause rental housing to deteriorate.” In Brooklyn, the value of sales in the first nine months of 2018 was $2.76 billion, versus $1.51 billion in the first nine months of this year, said Brownstoner. However, resale prices of multi-family buildings in Brooklyn have remained stable. This may be a good sign, Brownstoner says, because “Fewer apartment buildings changing hands … could potentially increase housing security for Brooklyn renters in large buildings and help make Brooklyn neighborhoods more stable in general.” 

MAN ACCUSED OF STABBING COUSIN PLEADS SELF-DEFENSE

FLATBUSH — A Brooklyn man accused of stabbing his cousin to death in their Ocean Avenue apartment was acting in self-defense, his lawyer said at arraignment. Norberto Lozada was “justified” and “defending himself” when he stabbed Ramon Marrero, defense attorney Mark Muccigrosso said, according to the Daily News. Lozada surrendered to police several hours after the stabbing, the News said. Meanwhile, prosecutors say a witness was watching as Lozada got on top of his cousin and repeatedly plunged the knife down. Judge Chang Young Li ordered Lozada held without bail, the News reported. 

HASIDIC JEWS ATTACKED IN STRING OF BOROUGH PARK ASSAULTS

BOROUGH PARK — Several Hasidic Jewish men and boys were attacked in a string of assaults in Borough Park on Friday night, the beginning of the Jewish Sabbath, according to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. Surveillance camera videos revealed

that in three of the attacks, several men jumped out of the same car to chase the Hasidim. In one incident, the passengers punched a Hasidic man after their vehicle pinned him against a parked car. The NYPD reported 311 total hate crimes against Jews from the beginning of this year through September, as opposed to 250 during the same period in 2018, the JTA reported. 

NEW PIEROGI SHOP COMES TO GREENPOINT

GREENPOINT — While many young creatives who don’t have roots in the neighborhood, or often in the city, have been moving to Greenpoint during the past 20 years, Radek Kucharski and his wife, Alexandra Siwiec, want to maintain the area’s Polish and Slavic cultural heritage. They have opened a new pierogi restaurant called Pierozek at 592 Manhattan Ave., according to The New York Times. They are being helped by pierogi makers Marzena Gesiarz and Zofia Kusmierska, who have roots in Czestochowa and own their own small restaurants in Greenpoint. The new restaurant’s pierogi are filled with potato and cheese; spinach, mushrooms and sauerkraut; or pork. Borscht with dumpling and sweet pierogis are also on the menu, the Times reported. 

PETER LUGER SUPPORTERS SHOW THEIR SUPPORT

Peter Luger fans, not dissuaded by last week’s ultra-critical review in The New York Times, have been showing up en masse at the famed Williamsburg steakhouse, New York Eater reported. A retired NYPD cop told the Daily Mail on Wednesday, “This place is great,” and another patron said, “It’s just one guy’s opinion and what does he know anyway?” New York chefs and some other critics are also coming to the restaurant’s defense. Luger’s general manager said that Luger’s still provides “the best steak you can eat,” New York Eater said. 

GRUB STREET REVIEWER THINKS WEGMANS IS SUB-PAR

Everyone in Brooklyn seems to be ooh-ing and aah-ing over the new Wegmans at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, but Alyse Whitney of New York magazine’s Grub Street has a complaint: unlike at other Wegmans stores, the deli sandwiches there are pre-made. “This Wegmans does not have a Sub Shop, and, as a result, it does not have a reason to exist,” she said. “If you think this sounds melodramatic, you have probably never had the pleasure of eating a Wegmans Assorted (turkey, roast beef, and ham) on everything-spiced bread with one hand during a five-hour driving trip. You have probably never burned the roof of your mouth on a Buffalo chicken-tender sub that manages to be somehow soft, crisp, and crunchy, all at once.” A customer service representative, however, told her that the Sub Shop is “coming soon.” Until then, she’ll have to be content with Subway.

Trapp Family appears in Academy concert BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE • NOV. 7, 1939 By Miles Kastendieck Some of the realization of the pleasure that the Trapp Family Choir had singing together for their own amusement before they took to the road in a professional way was imparted to an audience at the Academy of Music last night. It was as much of a pleasure to hear them. Eight performers in all, the mother with five daughters and two sons, under the direction of Franz Wasner, they illustrated perfectly a glorification of the amateur spirit expressing itself through music within a family group. Their program was almost a miniature course in early musical history. The first group presented some of the music of the Western Church in the inclusion of Catholic sacred music by Alchinger

and Palestrina and of Protestant sacred music by Praetorius and Bach. A secular group introduced music of the German, English and Italian schools. Then came the unusual feature of their program, the performance of early instrumental music with the aid of a choir of recorders (early wind instruments), a gamba (like a cello), and a spinet. The 17th century composers Muffat, Telemann and Fischer were represented by suites and trio sonatas. Two groups of folk songs, one of them Austrian, completed the list. One of the redeeming features of the concert was the fact that it was not quaint. So often when this older music is revived, the atmosphere is definitely set in the rosy glow of the past. This family 6INB • INBROOKLYN — A Special Section of Brooklyn Daily Eagle/Brooklyn Eagle/Heights Press/Home Reporter/Brooklyn Spectator/Brooklyn Record/Greenpoint Gazette • November 7– November 13, 2019 was too much alive to make these works other than living music. As a consequence, the program was all the more delightful. The entire family sings well, but there were some works that suited their voices more harmoniously than others. Among these were Lasso’s madrigal “Landsknechstandchen,” the German folk song “In Einem Kuhlen Grunde,” and all the Austrian folk songs, the Praetorius and the Bach, in an evening of consistently good singing. The phenomenon of the instrumental playing was as unusual as the Trapp Family itself so that their concert contained a unique element. If family circles of the Renaissance period were as expert as this group, then home life for them had its joyous moments. Such were the impressions left by a performance of this musical family which thus presents its unpremeditated art. Besides being well received, they were called upon repeatedly The Trapp family singers are shown at rehearsal in New York, Dec. 15, 1944 for a Christmas Eve broadcast. AP Photo for encores.

Theatre for Kids and Families Opens in Tri-State Park Slope JAG-ONE Physical Therapy Expands Throughout Area By John Alexander INBROOKLYN

Play Nice Theatre has begun its season of lighthearted musicals with positive, life-affirming messages about cooperation and kindness. And they’re looking for their July/August cast, musicians, and backstage helpers. Relocated from Manhattan, this all-volunteer company’s rehearsals and meetings reflect their of mission Photos courtesy JAG-ONE and message by encouraging its mixed-generation cast and crew (ages 6 to 106) to interact socially and share stories of their own lives on and off stage. In a welcoming atmosphere, the experienced and new Play Nice actors and crew are encouraged to come early and linger after assigned rehearsal slots in order to get to know each other, help each other memorize their lines, do school homework and play games. Some may choose to help with scenery painting or prop-making. All ticket sales from main stage shows ($10 admission) is donated to local charities, a prime motivation for many participants who find it rewarding to help raise money for those less fortunate through donating their time and talent. According to theatre founder Rob Lester, the cast and crew are like a second family. “Working on a show with

friendly people is fun and satisfying,” he says. The Brooklyn Eagle stopped by the new location at 89 Fourth Avenue, five blocks from Barclays Center, where the two-act musical “The Three Little Pigs Buy a Brownstone in Brooklyn” is running on weekends (2 p.m. Saturdays, 3:30 p.m. Sundays, through July 1). The Eagle is mentioned prominently in the Brooklyn-centric script in Scene 6 and the newspaper is used as a prop as well. The show’s target audience is ages six and up, with plenty of humor adults will appreciate. “Two six-year-olds are among the actors, with the oldest member more than ten times their age, and the family idea is reflected literally: the cast includes two brothers who play two of the pigs; a mother and her son have a scene together as an older pig

and hedgehog; two actors are cousins,” we’re informed. Original lyrics are set to public domain melodies including old folk songs and classic children’s tunes. The show, which emphasizes “being a good neighbor,” plus patience, perseverance, and pig puns runs through July 1, will be followed by show after show, starting with the summer musical about kids and counselors at an unusual summer camp, titled “Not a Happy Camper.” The theatre welcomes audition appointments, visits, donations of costumes and supplies, and all inquiries throughout the year. Acting classes, puppet shows, concerts, one-day free workshops, variety shows, and special family events are planned and a fundraising concert on July 20.

Locals join 50,000 runners from more than 125 countries in 49th annual TCS NYC Marathon By Jaime DeJesus INBrooklyn

Running towards victory. The 49th annual TCS New York City Marathon once again saw more than 50,000 people from more than 125 countries participate in the race on Sunday, Nov. 3. The 26.2-mile course ran through all five of the city’s boroughs, and Bay Ridge had a significant presence as locals participated in the race as well as served as volunteers and supporters. Ridge Runners, a group of local runners that has been around for five years, had more than 25 members run the marathon. “This was my 10th New York City Marathon, and first running with the Ridge Runners,” said participant Winston Lee, a Dyker Heights resident. “Having a local group to run with and cheer you on added a new component to an already special day. It always feels good to get the support of locals, but when you have a large group that know your name and you have shared training with, it adds a little extra. It also makes it hard to follow the advice that everyone gives, ‘start out slow.’” “I am part of Ridge Runners and it felt amazing finishing,” added Caroline Boursereau. “I was with one of my running friends from Ridge Runners, and we ran together the entire way, pushed each other and finished strong together. It was long and hard but so worth it. It was the best experience of my life.” She added that the overwhelming support added to the experience. “My mom came from France to do it with

me, too, and I had my family cheering me on in Bay Ridge and also the Ridge Runners cheering,” Boursereau added. “Bay Ridge was one of the most exciting neighborhoods. I live in Bay Ridge, so seeing everyone there was amazing!” Area runner Shana Wernow couldn’t participate due to a hip injury while training but wanted to be a part of the day and volunteered. “My social life is very closely tied to running and I knew that I was going to be missing out on a lot by having to sit out this race,” she said. “I immediately signed up to volunteer at the start. It was a way that I could still experience the excitement of the start village and be there to support those that were able to carry out their marathon dreams this year.” She went above and beyond to support her friends. “While everyone was still sleeping, I made my way to Fort Wadsworth at 4 a.m. and did my best to support my fellow runners. I also took the opportunity to see what others were doing to keep themselves comfortable while waiting for their start, so I can be well prepared for my turn next year. Because of the way the start village is set up, I was only able to see three of my fellow Ridge Runners before they started, but I gave each of them a big hug and wished them luck.” More generally, the elite runners had an exciting race. On the men’s side, 26-year-old Geoffrey Kamworor won his second event title, clocking in at 2:08:13. This is his second New York City Marathon runners making their way through Bay Ridge. Marathon win in three years. The Kenya native has participated in the marathon four times and has at least made the podium in all of them. “From the start of the race, I was feeling okay,” he said following the win. “I was comfortable. I prepared very well to run this marathon. Throughout the last few meters, the pace was somewhat high, and it wasn’t a problem for me. That’s when I decided to pull away.” On the women’s side, Joyciline Jepkosgei took first place in just her first attempt at the TCS New York City Marathon, and made history. She recorded the second-fastest time ever in the women’s open’s division in New York City Marathon history, finishing in 2:22:38. Her time was the fastest ever by a woman making her debut at the TCS New York City Marathon. “My strategy I had planned was to finish the race strong,” Jepkosgei said. “But in the last kilometers, I saw that I was approaching the finish line and I was capable of winning.” Switzerland’s Manuela Schär won her third consecutive title in the wheelchair division.

The Brooklyn Eagle, Home Reporter and Brooklyn Spectator hosted a well-attended senior living health and financial expo on Friday, Nov. 1 in the grand ballroom of the Dyker Beach Golf Club, 1030 86th Street. There was food, fun and freebies for those attending, along with informative exhibit tables by hospitals, realtors, law firms, local businesses, therapists and senior care specialists. In all, there were over 25 exhibitors at the expo offering information packets, product demonstrations and all kinds of free promotional items. There were raffles, refreshments and prizes galore. The keynote speakers were NYC Health + Hospitals/Coney Island’s Dr. Mark Kindschuh, chairperson of emergency medicine, and Renata Landskind and Terence Ricaforte of Landskind & Ricaforte Law Group. Also speaking at the expo were Chip Walker, supervising pharmacist and G.M. at Columbia Care and Steven Williams, community outreach trainer at Accessible Dispatch. Kindschuh, a board-certified physician who lives in Bay Ridge, spoke first. He has served as chairperson of the Department of Emergency

Medicine at NYC Health + Hospitals/Coney Island since 2016. Kindschuh played a vital role in the transformation of the hospital’s emergency department and oversees its services to the South Brooklyn community. “Let’s start with the facts,” said Kindschuh. “You can’t really argue with the facts. If you are 65 years or older, you have about a 50 percent chance in a year of ending up in the emergency department. The Baby Boomers have gotten older and we’re still here.” He attributed the majority of visits by seniors to such things as falls, taking the wrong medication, poor eyesight and safety issues in the home. Landskind and Ricaforte oversee a full-service law firm providing estate-planning services to the pre and post-retirement community. They said they were determined to keep their law practice small so that they are able to offer personalized services to their clients that larger law firms can’t provide. Continued on page 6

The expo featured a question-andanswer session with the audience.

Steven Williams, community outreach training coordinator for the Accessible Dispatch Program, talks to the audience. Continued from page 2 “The biggest concern people have as they age is the cost of aging and the risks that go along with it,” said Ricaforte. “Not a lot of people know about it so these expos are tremendous in spreading the knowledge that people need to understand all their options for themselves and their families. That’s why it’s so important to get the word out. All these vendors here can help all of us as we age,” added Ricaforte. Walker discussed the benefits of medical marijuana. “Columbia Care is a medical marijuana dispensary,” he explained. “It is a legitimate option for your healthcare. What we do for every patient who comes in is talk to you about your medications and past medical history so that we can understand what’s going on with all the symptoms you’re looking to treat.” He further explained, “If you have aches and pains and are taking over-the-counter medications, this is another option to replace some of those medications or add to them to help ease your aches and pains.” Williams was the last to speak. He explained that his company provides wheelchair accessible taxis throughout the five boroughs of New York City. He said that he has worked in the healthcare industry for six years and his goal is to see New York City become a more accessible city. “Everyone is eligible for this program and you don’t have to apply or enroll,” explained Williams. “These are taxis that are larger than a regular taxi and the great thing about the program is that you pay the same fare as a regular taxi cab. You get more for the money with someone trained to assist you and a larger vehicle for easier access. You don’t have to be in a wheelchair to use the program,” he added. A number of vendors had participated in earlier expos. “It’s good to be back at the senior fair,” said Louis Peters of United Healthcare - AMP Insurance Brokerage, 7709 Fifth Avenue in Bay Ridge. “This is a wonderful program where we can see all the vendors. We represent many, many insurance companies and today we’re thrilled to have the chance to talk to some seniors because this is their insurance election period between Oct. 15 and Dec. 7.” Michael Devigne, program manager for the Fifth Avenue BID, said that his group was “working on a number of programs to hopefully roll out more senior discounts and make seniors aware of what’s available to them in the BID. We’ll be doing window decals on the businesses and doing a mailing to let them know about all the great stores there and where they can get senior discounts.” Thomas Ryan, director of marketing at the Menorah Center for Rehabilitation, said that the health expo was an important means of reaching out to the community on a grassroots level and getting the seniors involved.

Continued from page 6 “It offers us an opportunity to let them know about all the options of health care, what we have and what we can do for them,” said Ryan. “The more education you provide, the more you know, the better services we can give.” Peter Killen, president of the Bay Ridge branch of AARP, said that the expo was invaluable in helping seniors. “The companies and organizations that are here are here for the seniors as we are at AARP,” said Killen. “The Home Reporter, Brooklyn Spectator and Brooklyn Eagle are essential to get all the news out that’s important to our citizens and definitely our seniors.” This was the first expo for Kerisha Wynter, supervisor at Humana at Home Senior Bridge Private Pay Services. “We are a private paid home care company that provides all the services you need to take care of your loved ones at home,” she told this paper. Franco Ullo of Jag-One Physical Therapy was also making his first appearance at the senior expo. “As we get older, there are ways to improve and maintain the quality of life by exercising mobility and we’re here to help that community thrive.” Stretched Out, a new business that offers therapeutic sports and wellness services at its location at 8121 Third Avenue in Bay

Ridge, announced that it was offering free exercise and therapy sessions to veterans and service members for one day. “On Veterans Day, we’re going to close down to our clients and we’re going to serve only the military,” John Brancato told this paper. Other exhibitors at the expo included Advanced Hearing Center, Ben Bay Realty/HSBC, FDNY, Caption Call, Investors Bank, Island Federal Credit Union, Island Shores, Northfield Bank, Norwegian Christian Home, NY Connects Dept. of Aging, OHEL, Prudential, Senior Bridge, Therapy-in-Motion and Zwanger-Pesiri Radiology. Russell Craig Targove was the master of ceremonies at the expo and there were also blood pressure screenings and other activities throughout each event. Guests were exceedingly pleased with the scope of the expo. “I’ve been to these before and I really find them very energizing and informative because all the groups that are here service our community in Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights,” said attendee June Johnson. Veteran Bill Humienny also said it was important to come to an event like this because of the information offered. “You learn about all the different doctors, hospitals and lawyers,” said Humienny. “I’ve come to a couple of these and this is one of the best I’ve been to.”

TOBIN, Sister Pat — On Nov. 1. Sister of Charity. While born in Dorchester, Massachusetts, she spent all of her ministry years as a Sister of Charity in the New York area. She started out as a grade school teacher at Our Lady of the Cenacle in Richmond Hill. From there, she was assigned to Our Lady of Angels where there were 2,700 students enrolled in the school. One of her fourthgrade students remembers her looking down on him saying, “ I guess there are times you just have to fight,” and she gave him a hug he has never forgotten. She received a degree in special education and began teaching students in special ed at Resurrection-Ascension School in Rego Park commuting each day from Bay Ridge. In 1973, she began a new ministry at the Conklin Residence on 67th Street. Eventually, she and Sister Natalie Morris became fulltime managers at the Conklin Residence. For her, this was a 24-hour ministry and she loved doing it. She and Sister Natalie would take them on vacation each summer, whether it be to the Jersey Shore or the Pocono Mountains, and have a great time. She retired from the Conklin Residence in 2002 but kept in touch with and became an advocate for seniors in Bay Ridge. One said when she heard

She is the daughter of the late Joseph and the late Maria (Reale) Cosenza. Maria loved most to spend her time with family, friends and dancing. She will not be forgotten by her many friends and family. Everyone who had the pleasure of knowing “Mary” loved her very much. Beloved wife of 68 years to the late Vincent Pizzillo. Loving mother of Madeline Mione (Mario) and Maria Byrnes (Robert). Cherished grandmother of Peter (Sommer), John (Danielle) and Christie. Treasured great grandmother of Christian.

LAVEGLIA, Daniel — “Danny,” as he was called, will always be remembered for his kindness, his quick sense of humor that always brought joy to those around him, and most importantly his loving devotion to his wife Ann. Ann was the love of Danny’s life and he always showed it. After 29 years of marriage, Ann suffered a stroke and during her eight-plus years as a patient in the Sheepshead Bay Nursing Home, Danny visited her every single day, caring for her during her times of need. Characteristic of Danny’s selfless devotion and unwavering positivity, he would lovingly tell his wife Ann while holding her hand during her time in the nursing home, “It’s okay. This is where we are at right now, and I’m here with you.” Danny was born on Dec. 17, 1931. He was raised, one of six children, on Dean Street in Brooklyn. Danny always mentioned his childhood fondly, having once said, “My mother and father were always doing everything they could for us. We did not have much in those days, but they were great times.” Danny returned to Dean Street for a nostalgic visit in May of 2018. In 1951, with the Korean War drafting many of the guys in his neighborhood, Danny enlisted

in the United States Navy for a four-year hitch. From the beginning, Danny loved being at sea while working long days of tending to the upkeep of the ship. He sailed the Atlantic Ocean, and the Caribbean and Mediterranean Seas, visiting the Bahamas, Bermuda, Cuba, Morocco, Tunisia, Italy, Spain and France, to name a few. Danny once told a fond story of riding horses during a beautiful sunny day while on leave in Cuba. He also spoke of spending memorable days in Naples, Italy (his family origin) and Monte Carlo on the French Riviera with his Navy pals. After his time in the Navy, Danny returned home to Brooklyn and found work as a Linotype worker for a printing company. Around the age of 50, Danny and Ann were married in 1981. Around that time, Danny went to work for the Highway Department of the City of New York. Danny was initially hired as a laborer, later becoming an asphalt truck driver and was then eventually promoted to an office worker, and assisted in representing the city concerning road conditions. Danny was a good union man during his twenty-five years with the city. Danny was helpful to

anyone who needed his assistance. He was amazingly handy and would always eventually figure things out when doing home projects. Danny enjoyed camping with Ann and they would spend most weekends at a beautiful northern New Jersey campground or at the Jersey shore. Danny and Ann worked hard during their lives, but they certainly enjoyed themselves along the way! Danny faced many difficult health problems during the past few years. Doctors said that his heart was weak, but in truth his heart was filled with love, kindness and strength. Danny’s favorite sport was boxing, which is not surprising because Danny had the heart of a champion. Danny was a good guy to everyone, especially to his family. Danny truly admired and loved Theresa for all that she gave to him and Ann during his and Ann’s time of need. Danny will be dearly missed by his loving family of Theresa, Jerry Jr., and Christina Rosiello, and by Joe, Nina, Catherine, Emily, and Julie Balsamo. All arrangements handled by Marine Park Funeral Home. Mass of Christian Burial Resurrection R.C. Church. Burial Pinelawn Memorial Park, Farmingdale.

YOU CAN FIND THEM BY STROLLING DOWN COLONIAL ROAD By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

Everybody’s in love with the Bronx step street where Joaquin Phoenix dances in “Joker.” Did you know Bay Ridge has two of them? One’s on 74th Street and the other’s on 76th Street. You can stroll down Colonial Road to find them — and do some dancing of your own without needing to elbow your way through all the visitors on the Joker’s Bronx stairs. Colonial Road stretches from the top of Bay Ridge to nearly the bottom of the neighborhood. When you walk down it, besides the iconic step streets, you’ll find a representative mix of southwest Brooklyn housing stock. There are big suburban-style homes with large lawns, semi-attached houses on deep lots, century-old limestone rowhouses and a handful of apartment buildings.

Hey Joker, Bay Ridge has two step streets you might like to dance down. They’re just off Colonial Road.

Colonial Road starts at the intersection of Wakeman Place.

INBrooklyn photos by Lore Croghan

From time to time, when you look south, you’ll glimpse the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge, austere and beautiful. The streets people most frequently recommend for northsouth Bay Ridge walks are Shore Road, with its fine houses and glimpses of Upper New York Bay, and Narrows Avenue, where a landmarked mansion known as the Gingerbread House can be found. These are stellar choices for strolls. But Colonial Road deserves a lot of love as well. And if you walk there, you can detour into Owl’s Head Park. One good way to get to Colonial Road is by riding the NYC Ferry. Its landing dock on the 69th Street Pier (aka American Veterans Memorial Pier) is just a few blocks away from Colonial Road’s starting point at the intersection of Wakeman Place. Or take the R train to its Bay Ridge Avenue stop.

THANK YOU, ELIPHALET W. BLISS Owl’s Head Park is located on the corner of Colonial Road and Wakeman Place. The 24-acre green space has the kind of dramatic hilly terrain you find in just a few places in Brooklyn. We have industrialist Eliphalet W. Bliss, who lived from 1836 to 1903, to thank for the park. It was his estate. In his will, he stipulated it should be sold to the City of New York for a discounted price on the condition that it be turned into parkland. As history buffs know, E.W. Bliss Co. owned factories in what’s now DUMBO. They produced machinery for manufacturers who made tin and sheet-iron products ranging from bird cages to typewriters. Anyway. Owl’s Head Park has an impressive variety of stately old trees including pines, locusts, oaks, maples, corks, beeches and tulip poplars, the city Parks Department’s website says. On a hilltop, a clearing affords a view of the water and Staten Island’s shoreline.

The park stretches down Colonial Road to the intersection of 68th Street. This is a great corner. When you turn your head towards the harbor, you can see the backs of the houses on a picturesque, one-block-long street called Bliss Terrace. Also turn away from the harbor and walk a short way up 68th Street. There’s an elegant cul-de-sac lined with Tudorstyle rowhouses. It’s called Bay Cliff Terrace. Bay Ridge has numerous block-long streets. In 2018, I photographed all of them.

LOTS OF TUDOR ROWHOUSES Colonial Road is scenic and serene. Hardly any of the buildings have storefronts. If you need a cup of coffee to fuel your walk, Colonial Deli is at 125 Bay Ridge Ave. at the intersection of Colonial Road. If you need a quick nosh, Rocky’s & Nicky’s Pizzeria is on the opposite corner, at 6824 Colonial Road. So. Start strolling down Colonial Road again. At the corner of 70th Street, turn your head towards the harbor and you will see the entrance to another picturesque one-block-long street of rowhouses with Tudor details. Its name is Louise Terrace. As you walk further, there are eye-catching things such as the beautiful Tudor details on the rowhouse at 7924 Colonial Road on the corner of Mackay Place. And at the corner of 72nd Street, a fine tree is still flowering this late in the year in the side yard of 7202 Colonial Road. Across the street, a lovely limestone home at 105 72nd St. has a side wall covered with gorgeous ivy.

THE JOKER WOULD LOVE THESE STEP STREETS IN BAY RIDGE

Eye on

— Continued from page 12INB —

REAL ESTATE

THE 74TH STREET STEP STREET I took a lot more photos than I’m showing you in this story. So it took me a while to get to the corner of 74th Street, which is where the block with one of Bay Ridge’s step streets is located. The block is to your left as you walk down Colonial Road. On either side of the street, there are flat-faced rowhouses with distinctive stone lintels above the windows and decorative stonework below the windows. Next to the front stoops, there are terraces surrounded by low walls. Generously sized front yards stand in front of the terraces. Some of the houses have retractable awnings. Some of the homeowners are flying American flags. The leaves are autumnal red on the tree in front of the Colonial Road corner house, whose address is 101 74th St. The best vantage point for looking at these lovely houses is half-way up the staircase. If you were taking a lunch break, you’d walk all the way up the stairs and head for Third Avenue. White beech trees that were nicknamed “the Twelve Apostles” were torn down to clear the site of the 74th Street staircase, an informative post on the news and culture blog Hey Ridge says. The staircase was constructed in the 1930s.

THE 76TH STREET STEP STREET I kept walking on Colonial Road. I was afraid it might rain and short-circuit my plan to take photos on every block.

You can see Upper New York Bay from this hill in Owl’s Head Park.

INBrooklyn photos by Lore Croghan

THE KINGS COUNTY INEBRIATE ASYLUM Further along, you’ll notice the handsome stand-alone houses on 85th Street just east of the Colonial Road intersection. Then you’ll get to the intersection of 86th Street — which is of course the road that takes you to L&B Spumoni Gardens in Gravesend if you keep walking and walking. Down on the corner of 88th Street, there’s a big, gorgeous stucco house painted creamy yellow. Except it’s actually a duplex. The home right on the corner is 8723 Colonial Road. The other side of the property, which is painted a slightly different color and has shutters on its upstairs windows, is 8719 Colonial Road. At the next Colonial Road intersection, the flowers at 8824 Colonial Road are still blooming. Between 90th and 91st streets, tremendous trees tower over a wall that surrounds the grounds of Visitation Academy. The entrance to the school is on Ridge Boulevard. Did you know the property on which the academy was built was formerly the site of the Kings County Inebriate Asylum? There are apartment buildings and a short row of houses on Colonial Road’s final block, which is between 91st and 92nd Streets. After this trek, you’ll probably want a bite to eat. If you turn left onto 92nd Street and walk to Third Avenue, there are a zillion places for coffee, snacks and meals. Paneantico, a popular Italian cafe that makes excellent hero sandwiches, is right on the corner of 92nd and Third. When you need to go home, the 95th Street R-train station is on nearby Fourth Avenue.

This is Bay Cliff Terrace, whose entrance is on 68th Street near the intersection of Colonial Road. Along the way, I noticed a pretty pair of enclosed porches at 7604 and 7606 Colonial Road. The entrance to the block with the 76th Street step street has two big, beautiful houses on either side of it. One of them is 7523 Colonial Road. The other is 7601 Colonial Road. Trees with lush foliage grow alongside this staircase. Your view of these fine houses is better on the lower steps than on the top ones. Construction of the 76th Street step street was completed by 1924, the Hey Ridge posting about the step streets says. The 76th Street step street is such a novelty, and so picturesque. I was tempted to sit for a couple hours and enjoy the tranquility, even though it did seem like it might rain.

THE GREEN MAN Instead, I headed back onto Colonial Road. I was rewarded with the sight of a dog walker marching past the eye-catching stucco house at 7801 Colonial Road. Sweet-faced pooches walked right beside him, the way they’re taught to do in obedience school. Two houses at the intersection of Colonial Road and 80th Street caught my eye. One of them is 7923 Colonial Road, with a stucco facade painted a delicate bluish hue and a fireplace made of stone. A retaining wall around the lawn is made of the same stone as the fireplace. To give you an idea of what houses are worth on Colonial Road, this one was sold for $1.98 million in 2018, city Finance Department records indicate.

The other eye-catching house on an 80th Street corner is 8001 Colonial Road. It is made of pale-hued stucco and looks like an Italian villa. A stone decoration over the front door depicts a man’s face with the beard made out of stylized leaves. Ropes of leaves and fruit hang from his ears. This decorative motif, which is a symbol of rebirth and nature’s self-renewal, is known as the Green Man. It can be found on house facades in numerous Brooklyn neighborhoods.

IN MEMORY OF JOSEPH JOHN HASSON III The corner of 81st Street has a lovely large home whose address is 8102 Colonial Road. The lawn is a small hill that rises several feet above the sidewalk. Another house at this intersection, 132 81st St., is so pretty. A block further away, on the corner of Colonial Road and 82nd Street, there’s a street co-naming sign that says “Joseph John Hasson III 9/11 Memorial Way.” According to the NYC Honorary Street Names database, it runs between this spot and Shore Road and 92nd Street, which is just past the end of Colonial Road. Hasson died in the terrorist attacks that destroyed the World Trade Center. At the time of his death, the 34-year-old Bay Ridge resident was an assistant vice president of sales at eSpeed, a subsidiary of financial services firm Cantor Fitzgerald, a New York Times profile about him said.

WASHINGTON RAPIDLY FILLING FOR TRIBUTE TO UNKNOWN HERO BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE • NOV. 6, 1921 By C.C. Brainerd WASHINGTON — On the eve of two ceremonies which, in the burial of a nameless hero at Arlington on the third anniversary of the signing of the armistice, symbolizes the country’s mourning homage to its soldier dead in the World War and which, in the international arms conference gives a new urge to the hope that those men have not died in vain, Washington has become more than ever before the pulsing heart of the nation’s sentiment. From Wednesday afternoon when the S.S. Olympia arrives at the Navy Yard with the unknown body until Saturday after the impressive opening of the parley on armament, the thousands upon thousands of people who have flocked here for these momentous events will experience emotions of sorrow and aspiration heretofore unknown in this city. Already the capital is rapidly filling up with the crowds that are discharged from each incoming train. Before Friday, which is a national holiday by the president’s proclamation, the housing accommodations of Washington will be strained beyond all capacity. The congestion in the streets daily increases. Patriotic organizations, gold star mothers and many civic delegations have yet to arrive to add their tribute to that of

the whole nation at the bier of the unknown dead. An international atmosphere prevails here with the coming of the delegates to the conference, and the lilt of foreign tongues is repeatedly heard along the avenues. Diplomats and commissioners flash by in big sleek motors and scores of overseas correspondents troop from one official conference to the next. The flags of the five nations fly in clusters from hotels, embassies and private dwellings. Expectancy and excitement are in the air. All activities of the next week will move on a well-ordered plan. The War Department, which has complete control over the ceremony of the burial of the unknown dead, has worked its arrangements down to a nicety of seconds. Every preparation is ready from the time the party is received at the Navy Yard until the bugler sounds taps over the sarcophagus at Arlington. On Thursday the body will lie in state in the rotunda of the Capitol with an honor guard of the finest men in the service standing over it. From early morning until late at night, the people of Washington will pass in silent tribute before the casket placed on a huge black catafalque which has held the remains of the three martyred presidents. A single American flag will be draped over the casket

AP Photo below upon which will be banked tier on tier of floral offerings. It is expected that a steady stream will flow by the bier. As at the Capitol, extensive preparations have been made for handling the crowds. Traffic maps have been drawn up showing the exact routes to be followed. A detachment of 300 Marines and a troop of cavalry has been assigned to keep order outside the building to guard against any such riotous action as occurred there at the time of McKinley’s death.

In the rotunda, more than 50 delegations will pay homage to the nameless hero in the name of the thousands, known and unknown, who were killed in the war. In order that they may not block the stream of people passing the body on the left, a section will be roped off on the opposite side of the rotunda for them where they may hold their brief services and place their wreaths and flowers at the foot of the catafalque. Otherwise the Capitol will be closed to the public.

On Friday — Armistice Day — the body will be taken from the Capitol at 8:30 a.m. and the parade will be formed on the east plaza and will march down Pennsylvania Avenue. The president, his cabinet, members of the Senate and House and all other officials of the government will follow on foot the Army caisson that bears the body. Slowly the long line will wind its way out of the city across the Potomac to Virginia and on to the National Cemetery.

Parishioners bid church farewell BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE NOV. 6, 1954 By Peggy O’Reilly

An Old-Timers’ farewell service, which brought old-time members from distant points on Long Island, Staten Island and New Jersey, was held last night at the Windsor Terrace Methodist Church, Prospect and Greenwood Aves., a landmark in the Windsor Terrace section which must be razed to make way for the Prospect Expressway. Many golden memories were stirred by addresses of participants in the service, including two former pastors, the Rev. Frank Curtis Williams, now pastor of the South Reformed Church, and the Rev. Ward I. Hemenway, now pastor of Fenimore Street Methodist Church. James L. Anderson, a trustee of the church and chairman of the Old Timers’ Farewell, described the Windsor Terrace Church as “historic” as he recalled how during 68 years of existence it had represented in its membership a cross-section of the community’s life. The Rev. Wallace R. Randall, present pastor, in his welcome looked ahead hopefully to

congregational life in the new modern church edifice now under construction at Vanderbilt and E. 3rd Sts. He saluted the old-timers as those from whom the present church membership had received “the torch of liberty and faith.” Mr. Hemenway’s theme was “the On-Going Church.” Mr. Williams, who foresaw a “religious renaissance” on the way, said the Windsor Terrace Church had been “a happy church” and prophesied it would, in its new home, meet the challenge of changing times. A letter from the Rev. William S. Jackson of St. Petersburg, Fla., who was pastor from 1907 to 1917, was read. The Rev. Harman F. Miller, pastor of St. Mark’s Lutheran Church, gave the benediction. Mr. and Mrs. Frederick R. Dalton [of E. 5th St.] were among the old-time former members present. Mrs. Dalton, beginning at the age of 14 and when the Windsor Terrace Church was located on E. 5th St., prior to 1893, had taught Sunday School for about 40 years. A number of persons approached her before and after the service inquiring, “Weren’t you my Sunday School teacher?”

RECENT COURT DECISIONS AND APPEALS By C. B. Abruzzese Brooklyn Daily Eagle

CLASS CERTIFICATION REASSERTED IN “FLUSHABLE” WIPES LAWSUIT United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York In the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Hon. Jack Weinstein issued a decision that involved the certification of injunctive relief and damages classes of New York consumers who alleged the violation of New York State law by retailers who sell “flushable” toilet wipes. The “flushable” wipes are moist toilettes intended for use in place of, or in addition to, toilet paper. Around the country, individual consumers and others, including municipalities, have sued Hon. Jack Weinstein the retailers and manufacturers of the Eagle file photo by Mario Belluomo wipes, alleging that they are not flushable as advertised. In the litigation adjudicated by Judge Weinstein, the plaintiffs, represented by Joseph Kurtz and Anthony Belfiore on behalf of themselves and others similarly situated, are consumers who purchased “flushable” wipes from the Kimberly-Clark Corporation, Costco Wholesale Corporation and the Procter & Gamble Company. In their complaint, both Kurtz and Belfiore alleged that they purchased flushable toilet wipes manufactured or sold by the defendants that are not flushable, even though they are advertised and labeled as being so. Additionally, the plaintiffs alleged that they paid more than they should have for the wipes because they were advertised as being flushable and are not. In December 2017, the district court certified injunctive relief and damages classes of New York consumers who alleged a violation of New York State consumer law. Upon appeal by the defendants, the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit remanded a critical damages issue to the district court. In particular, the district court was asked to determine whether or not the plaintiffs’ proof was sufficient to establish the injury and causation elements of their claims at trial with common evidence. Judge Weinstein was tasked with choosing whether to decertify the damages classes or maintain the current certification orders. During the post-mandate evidentiary hearings, the plaintiffs provided to the court expert reports from economists in order to prove that each defendant had engaged in consumeroriented conduct that was materially misleading and that they suffered an injury as a result. The plaintiffs presented to the court the analysis of Colin Weir, vice president at Economics and Technology, Inc., “a research and consulting firm specializing in economics, statistics, regulation and public policy.” Weir completed a hedonic regression analysis for all three producers of “flushable” wipes. In reliance on econometric literature, he converted the sales data into quarterly data and analyzed product attributes and control variables as potential explanations of price. After testing several different specifications, he concluded that the model is reliable in demonstrating whether there is a price premium associated with the flushable claim. Weir’s results indicate that there is a marketwide percentage price premium for a wipe with a flushable claim from 6.215 percent for Kimberly-Clark products to 8.5619 percent for Costco products. Weir concluded that there was a strong likelihood that members of the three classes paid a percentage amount more for a wipe with a flushable claim than they would have if the wipe did not have a flushable claim. While the defendant corporations provided their own experts, who outlined a litany of alleged problems with Weir’s regression theory and his actual computation, Judge Weinstein felt that Weir was credible and demonstrated that his methodology was reliable. He found the criticisms of the defendant experts unpersuasive as to the issue before him, namely, whether the consumer plaintiffs could demonstrate causation and injury by common evidence. Judge Weinstein concluded that the defendants’ motions to exclude their opponents’ experts were rejected under the Federal Rules of Evidence. He determined that the plaintiffs met their burden and demonstrated that the injury and causation elements of their claims could be proven with common evidence. Finding the defense’s argument relied primarily on individualized issues of when and where consumers made their purchases, Judge Weinstein rejected those contentions as individualized issues that do not predominate. His ultimate determination held that the plaintiffs supported the contention that there was a marketwide price premium attributable to the flushable label on toilet wipes, and that every New York consumer paid a percentage amount more for flushable toilet wipes as a result of this characterization. As such, the decision certifying the class was reasserted. —Kurtz v. Kimberly-Clark Corporation et al., 14-1142, October 25, 2016

The new Brooklyn Chamber president’s plan for the future Continued from page 2

a local business advocacy organization whose mission is not unlike that of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce.) Five months later, Hector Batista, former CEO of the New York branch of the youth mentorship organization Big Brothers Big Sisters, was named Chamber president, becoming the first Latino to hold the position. Like Peers, Batista is also from Brooklyn and, also like Peers, called his appointment a “homecoming.” However, Batista resigned this past June to become chief operating officer of the City University of New York. Peers then replaced interim president Samara Karasyk on Sept.9. “Yes, it’s important that the next president stay there for a while,” Scissura told the Heights Press. “It’s my hope that Randy will stay five to 10 years, will help solidify the organization, will work with the board [of directors] to take it to the next level.” Such frequent turnover at the president level in the Chamber does not appear to have rattled its board of directors. “In terms of the programming and legisla-

tive results we provide our members, we are as effective now, if not more so, than we’ve ever been,” Ana Oliveira, the board’s chair, said in an email. “Dynamic leaders with vast experience and talents have served the Chamber in recent years and each of their tenures left us stronger as an organization. … Randy’s leadership will drive the Chamber’s mission to grow the borough’s economy and will ensure that our businesses have the support and resources they need to thrive.” As perhaps the borough’s prime business advocate, Peers has now been reinjected into a booming economic landscape, and already has an eye toward greater membership cultivation. He sees real estate and tech as the two key industries that have built up Brooklyn’s unprecedented economic growth the past decade or so, and told the Heights Press that in his role as the Chamber president he will “assess how well-represented we are by those two sectors.” Still, he admitted the Chamber faces particular challenges in partnering with the new tech companies that have flocked to the borough.

“Tech and chambers of commerce, historically, don’t have a lot of interaction,” he said. “When you think ‘chamber of commerce,’you think generally of your grandfather.” He said that his vision for the Chamber going forward is one that consists of a better understanding of tech business’s needs, while seeking ways in which the Chamber can “break the communication barrier” between itself and tech industry stakeholders to show them “that what we do can be relevant.” Peers also wants the Chamber to explore any opportunities it has to work with burgeoning businesses, big and small, while remaining sensitive to the needs of the borough’s legacy companies and long-time residents as well. He believes the Chamber can accomplish that through “empowerment” and finding ways to incorporate born-and-bred Brooklynites like himself into the shape-shifting job market. During his address last month, Peers outlined new Chamber programming that included the creation of the Brooklyn Free Enterprise Political Action Committee, a fund that will support business-friendly political candidates;

a new program called Leadership Brooklyn that fosters professional growth and increases volunteerism through education initiatives; the launching of the Brooklyn App for smartphones; and the publishing of a new print magazine, Brooklyn Onward. Peers also said the Chamber will become a Community Development Financial Institution that will dish out microloans to the borough’s small businesses that do not typically qualify for commercial bank loans. Such endeavors sound as though they’ll take a chamber of commerce president some time to implement and promote, too. “I’m here to stay, for sure, in Brooklyn,” Peers told the Heights Press in his office, before wryly adding, “Even if I wanted to go elsewhere, I don’t think my wife and my daughter would allow it.” Michael Stahl is a freelance writer and editor. A former high school English teacher, he has written for Rolling Stone, Vice, the Village Voice, Narratively, Splitsider, Outside Magazine and other publications.
