McKinley students help DOT beautify bike lane barrier BY PAULA KATINAS
PAULA@BROOKLYNEAGLE.COM
When the New York City Department of Transportation decided to beautify an eightblock-long bike lane barrier on Seventh Avenue by painting a floral design on the structure, DOT found a group of volunteers who were eager to help. Enthusiastic eighth graders from McKinley Intermediate School were among the dozens of volunteers painting a 1,700foot-long section of the Jersey barrier on Seventh Avenue on Oct. 23. It took hours to get the job done. The work area started at 67th Street and extended all the
way to Bay Ridge Parkway. The Jersey barrier, which runs along the Gowanus Ex-pressway Service Road, protects the designated bike lane from vehicular traffic flowing south on Seventh Avenue. The two-way bike lane is part of DOT’s Green Wave Plan, a plan to erect 30 miles of bike lanes a year in the city. At one point, McKinley Principal Janice Geary and Assistant Principal Donna Nastasi decided to pay a visit to the work area near 67th Street to take a look at how their students were progressing. “It looks great!” Geary said.

While Gov. Andrew Cuomo has appointed 19 members to a new commission that will oversee the creation of a statue honoring Mother Cabrini, U.S. Rep. Max Rose has his own idea of how to honor the patron saint of immigrants. He recently introduced legislation to rename the Dyker Heights Post Office, 8202 13th Avenue, the Mother Cabrini Post Office. Fifteen members of Congress have voiced support for

Rose’s bipartisan bill: Peter King, Brian Higgins, Sean Patrick Maloney, Joseph Morelle, Jerrold Nadler, Nydia Velázquez, Thomas Suozzi, Eliot Engel, Adriano Espaillat, Grace Meng, Hakeem Jeffries, Nita Lowey, José Serrano and Kathleen Rice. “Mother Cabrini’s unending dedication to helping others touched the lives of so many New Yorkers,” said Rose. “The incredible groundswell of support for her in our community is a testament to her example of compassion, service and impact.” For the full story, see brooklynreporter.com.
For a so-called “off-year” election, this year’s ballot has plenty for voters to consider. Here’s a guide to what you’ll find when you show up at your polling place to cast your ballot. One high-profile race this election cycle is the contest for New York City Public Advocate. Incumbent Jumaane Williams, a Democrat, is running for re-election. His two opponents are Staten Island Councilmember Joseph Borelli, who is running on both the Republican and Conservative party lines, and David Balkind, president of the non-profit Sahana Software Foundation. He is running on the Libertarian party line. Voters in Brooklyn’s 45th Council District will go to the polls to select a City Council representative. Incumbent Democrat
Farah Louis, who won the seat earlier this year after Williams won the race for public advocate, is running for re-election. Her two opponents are Liberal Anthony Beckford and Libertarian David Fite. The district includes Flatbush, East Flatbush and parts of Midwood, Marine Park, Flatlands and Kensington. The election ballot contains five proposed changes to the New York City Charter. Ballot Question # 1 would amend the charter to give voters the opportunity to rank candidates in numerical order (instead of voting for just one candidate) in primaries and special elections for mayor, City Council, public advocate, comptroller and borough president. Voters would be allowed to rank up to five candidates. For the full story, see brooklynreporter.com.

A packed room of enthusiastic kindergarten through fifth grade students at P.S. 264, the Bay Ridge Elementary School for the Arts, gathered to greet Lt. Gov.Kathy Hochul and members of New York Edge, the largest provider of afterschool programs in the city. Hochul was there to salute the 20th annual Lights On Afterschool program, which allows schools to stay open after hours, and to celebrate the impact it’s had on children who’ve participated in the program. Hochul and District 20 schools Superintendent Karina
Costantino were given a tour of the school by Principal Marisa Bolognino. Following the tour, they were joined by State Sen. Andrew Gounardes and Rachael Gazdick, CEO of New York Edge. They all watched the students, who worked in groups of five or six on their afternoon project, building a free-standing lighthouse tower out of 30 straws and cellophane tape with a tiny light on top. “At New York Edge, we support 40,000 students in all five boroughs of New York City and over 130 schools,” Gazdick told this paper.

New York State mulls study of Sunset Park air quality BY PAULA KATINAS

PAULA@BROOKLYNEAGLE.COM
The air quality in Sunset Park and its impact on the health of residents could soon be coming under close scrutiny by New York State environmental experts. The Department of Environmental Conservation is seriously considering a request made by Assemblymember Felix
Ortiz, a Democrat representing Sunset Park, Red Hook and parts of Bay Ridge, issued an urgent request to Gov. Andrew Cuomo to authorize a study of the air Sunset Park residents breathe. There are reasons to believe the community’s air quality is negative, Ortiz said. For the full story, see brooklynreporter.com.

OPINION
THANK YOU PRESIDENT TRUMP
A
merican security forces, including military special forces and intelligence agencies, deserve an enormous thank-you from the American people and, for that matter, the world, for actions that resulted this past weekend in the death of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. The ISIS leader since 2010 was considered the most wanted terrorist of all and had a $25 million price on his head. President Trump, who seems to get blamed for every thing, certainly under our Constitution as the nation’s military leader deserves a hearty pat on the back for working with top uniformed personnel and security agencies in approving a series of decisions that
brought about al-Baghdadi’s demise. In fact, every part of this operation appears to have worked. America is a safer place as a result and justice has been done. Al-Baghdadi, active in this terrorist organization for almost 20 years, executed or planned actions that resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of men, women and children, as well as countless other atrocities. He had been referred to by many as the most evil person on earth. Sadly, that is a competitive title these days, but without question he got what he deserved. Thank you, President Trump and the men and women of the armed forces and Intelligence agencies.
*** Since the impeachment inquiry by the Democratic members of the House is predicated on a political calculation, I wonder how these same folks are viewing President Trump today. I suspect they understand that their efforts will receive a fresh pushback from an invigorated president and his supporters. Additionally, many other Americans who probably are just as happy not knowing what is going on in Washington but do care about our nation’s safety will question their Democratic representatives about the wisdom of pushing an impeachment effort against the president. *** As much as I strongly

Cuomo to gain political points with Catholics. The governor advocated for years in support of a
LAW AND DISORDER
O
n We d n e s d a y, Oct. 23, dozens of House Republicans stormed a closed-door hearing where an impeachment inquiry deposition was scheduled to begin. They echoed the complaints of the president, who has bemoaned that the process of impeachment is being conducted in secret, his side doesn’t have an opportunity to question witnesses, and he is being denied his right to confront his accuser. The problem with those contentions is that the first two are completely untrue, while the latter is something he is simply not entitled to. He either doesn’t understand the aspects of constitutional law at play here or he is hoping the public doesn’t and won’t question him. Impeachment is the word everyone seems to use to describe the entire process in general, but we actually haven’t even reached that phase.
Although impeachment is not a criminal proceeding, if we made a comparison to that process, the initial investigation is still underway. We’re currently in the first 15 minutes of an episode of “Law & Order,” in which the detectives are still gathering evidence and speaking to witnesses. For Presidents Nixon and Clinton, there was either a special prosecutor or an independent counsel who conducted this initial phase and, as in any such investigation, that person didn’t share evidence with the subject, nor allow witnesses to hear other witness testimony before providing theirs. Robert Mueller did serve as special counsel for the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and any related matters that stemmed from it, but the House did not move forward with impeachment
proceedings when his work concluded. It is doing so with respect to issues related to the Ukrainian affair and being that there is no special appointee to conduct an investigation, the three House committees with oversight over the matters in question are performing that function.
The claim that this is all being done in complete secrecy without an opportunity for the other side to participate is preposterous.
And that brings us back to the 30-plus Republicans who stormed a secure facility, cordoned off to protect classified information. The three committees whose members were allowed to be in that room include 47 Republicans. Those GOP committee members can be
nine-month abortion bill. Earlier this year, such a bill that went even further was delivered to his desk by the legislature. He signed it with great fanfare. For months, there was debate among Catholics over him being excommunicated for his support of this new law. The church sitting down with Andrew Cuomo to coordinate the creation of a Mother Cabrini statue seems wrong. *** The New York State Conservative Party held a successful fall reception last week at the New York Sheraton Time Square. The featured speaker was Jeanette Nunez, the lieutenant governor of Florida, who is
a rising star in both the national GOP and conservative movement. In addition, at the event, Gov. George Pataki was recognized on the anniversary of his election 25 years ago. There were many state legislators and candidates in the room including congressional candidate Nicole Malliotakis. Marty Golden was present as well as Mike Long, who introduced Gov. Pataki and personally deserves credit for his victory. The Brooklyn Conservative Party as usual was heavily in attendance.

MATTER OF FACT BY JAY BROWN
present for all depositions and get equal time to ask questions. The claim that this is all being done in complete secrecy without an opportunity for the other side to participate is preposterous. In fact, Republicans currently have more access to the information being gathered than members of Congress loyal to Presidents Nixon and Clinton ever had at this point. The committee chairs leading the inquiry have already stated that public hearings will follow. And when the impeachment inquiry finally concludes, only then will the House move to consider whether to begin the actual impeachment process. Being impeached is the
equivalent of being indicted, so the impeachment phase is akin to what a grand jury does. And to be clear, both constitutionally and in practice, grand juries are conducted in secret and the accused do not have sixth amendment rights to confront witnesses accusing them of wrongdoing. In actuality, impeachment is more favorable to an accused president than the grand jury process is to a criminal suspect. If the entire process leads to articles of impeachment being drawn up and the House committee votes in favor of those charges, it would go to the entire lower chamber for a full vote. If a simple majority votes in favor, the president is impeached. This means, in essence, he will have been
indicted, with a trial in the Senate to follow. Being that removal requires a two-thirds vote of the Senate and it is hard to imagine any scenario in which at least 20 Republicans vote in favor, it has been a foregone conclusion that impeachment is as far as this can go. Some posit that being acquitted in the Senate trial would be a win for President Trump. If that’s the case, why are Republicans storming closed-door committee hearings? Why are they telling Americans they are shut out of proceedings when 47 of them can attend? Why are they demanding the president have access to be involved with witnesses and accusers that they know he has no right to engage with at this early stage?

News From Your Neighborhood THOUSANDS OF FANS STORM NEW WEGMANS
BROOKLYN NAVY YARD — Thousands of Wegmans fans, including some who began lining up at 4 a.m., poured into the city’s first Wegmans supermarket at the Brooklyn Navy Yard on Sunday. “I’ve been waiting for this my whole adult life,” said Kimberly Ciaccia, 40, of Brooklyn, who arrived at the new store well before the crack of dawn, according to the New York Post. By noon, at least 30,000 shoppers had visited the 74,000-square-foot store, an employee of the Rochester-based grocery chain told the Post. One woman from the Bronx, Rashida Shabazz, told the Post that she was glad to make the hour-plus commute from her apartment because of the quality of the food. Shabazz, a retiree, had spent the night in her sister’s house in Brooklyn. Others, however, found the crowds disconcerting.

DEED FRAUD ISN’T NEW IN BROOKLYN
BOROUGHWIDE — There has recently been an epidemic of deed fraud in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Crown Heights and other gentrifying neighborhoods. However, the crime is not new, according to the Brownstone Detective website. For example, in 1907, Charles Edgar Appleby, a widower and retired lawyer reportedly worth $25 million, was reading a newspaper that stated that a parcel that he owned had been transferred to “Edith Stonebridge.” It was the first time he had heard of any such transaction, and he immediately wrote to his lawyers. Their investigation, Brownstone Detective said, led to the arrest of Patrick Moore, employed by Guarantee and Trust Company, and John Bough, lessee of the Dry Dock Hotel. Investigators also found that Stonebridge could not be found but was rumored to have “frequently Bowery resorts.” The deed was drawn by Frederick Anderson, a notary, but he couldn’t be found either. Assistant District Attorney Milner told the Eagle at the time, “There is a gang of straw bond men in New York who have for years been working in the courts. Their method is to forge a deed from some old man, transfer the property through three or four [fictitious] persons, until it is difficult to fix the crime upon any one person.”

UNUSUAL HOTEL TO RISE ON LIVINGSTON STREET
DOWNTOWN BROOKLYN — A 22-story hotel at 291 Livingston St. in Downtown Brooklyn will have an unusual striped façade, according to Brownstoner. Buildings Department records show there will be 103 hotel rooms and a beer garden on the ground floor. A rendering posted on the construction fence shows a thin, angled tower whose facade is covered in black and white stripes, Brownstoner reported. Since the previous two-story building on the site was razed in 2017, walls for the new building have risen about two stories. The development is set back from the street, so it’s difficult to see. The development firm Hello Living bought the site from John Catsimatidis in 2017.

COPS SEEK DUO WHO TRIED TO ROB DELI
CROWN HEIGHTS — The NYPD is looking for two men whom they say tried to rob a deli in Crown Heights earlier this month, according to PIX11. On Oct. 21, an unidentified man, acting as a lookout, pretended to buy a drink at a deli near the corner of Nostrand Avenue and Sterling Place. Another man entered the store and pointed a gun at the man working behind the counter. The armed man threatened the employee and tried to remove cash from the register but was not successful. The two men then fled in an unknown direction without any cash, police said.

WILLIAMSBURG — Atlas Obscura recently featured Gottlieb’s Restaurant in Williamsburg, one of a small number of glatt kosher delis in the U.S. (Glatt kosher is a type of kashrut that is much stricter than the usual kashrut.) The deli, in the Hasidic area of the neighborhood, was opened in 1962 by a Hungarian holocaust survivor and hasn’t changed much. Although items such as sesame chicken and chicken lo mein have been added, most of the items on the menu are Eastern European mainstays such as goulash, stuffed cabbage, matzoh ball soup and pastrami sandwiches with fried onions.

B’KLYN MUSICIAN FOCUSES ON AFRICAN, CARIBBEAN SOUNDS
BROOKLYN BRIDGE — A replica of Christopher Columbus’ Santa Maria got stuck in a sand bar off the coast of Brooklyn on Monday afternoon, according to the New York Post. The NAO Santa Maria, which travels to different cities to teach history on the 525th anniversary of Columbus’ voyage, got stuck during low tide as it traveled up the East River toward the Brooklyn Bridge for a photo shoot. Police responded and pushed the ship, but it didn’t break free until the tide went up and dislodged it from the sand bar. The ship finally sailed back to the Brooklyn Army Terminal around 4:30 p.m.
FORT GREENE — Dawn Drake, a performer who specializes in AfroCuban, Brazilian, Caribbean and African music, is performing every Tuesday night with her band ZapOte at 33 Lafayette St., Fort Greene. She refers to her music as “chronic groove from the global south.” As a percussionist, she studied extensively in Cuba, Brazil and Ghana before gravitating toward the bass. Her mostly female band puts a premium on highlighting women, and she has done a lot of work with the public-school system and the Brooklyn Arts Council.

‘TWO TOMS’ IN GOWANUS, COP HANGOUT, TO CLOSE
GOWANUS — A bar and Italian restaurant that has been a hangout for police officers and firefighters since it opened in 1948 will be closing shortly after Christmas, according to Patch. The restaurant, Two Toms, has been described as “equal parts social club, American Legion hall and grandpa’s rec room” by New York Eater. Anthony Catapano, the owner of Two Toms, who is planning to retire, says he is selling the building because of the changing landscape of the neighborhood and changing tastes. Catapano took over the restaurant from his late uncle Tom Giordano, one of the original two Toms, Patch said.

COP SEEN PUNCHING TEENS TRANSFERRED OUT OF PRECINCT
SUBWAY SYSTEM — An officer who was caught on camera punching two teens in a wild subway melee in Brooklyn last weekend was transferred on Monday, according to the New York Post. The cop, whose name wasn’t made public, was moved from the 84th Precinct to the Brooklyn Detective Squad. The same officer had many previous complaints filed with the Civilian Complaint Review Board. Some of these included the use of force. The melee began with a fight between two groups of teens. Video from the incident shows officers from the 84th Precinct trying to cuff one of the teens as he appears to pull away, the Post reported. Then, the cop who was transferred ran up to another teen and punched him in the face, starting another brawl. Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams, a former police captain, had called for the cop who punched the teen to be placed on modified duty.

HEALTH GROUP SET TO BEGIN HOME VISITS
BOROUGHWIDE — RiseBoro, a social services nonprofit organization based in Brooklyn, is starting a new program in which health professionals can visit members in their homes for wellness checks. Although the nonprofit has previously provided preventive services and home care, this will be the first time the services will be paid for by insurance, according to amNewYork. Many of RiseBoro’s clients tend to use the emergency room as their primary care doctor, amNewYork added. The at-home visits, set to begin in November, will involve talking with clients about their health conditions as well as assessing the quality of their home environment and daily living conditions. RiseBoro hopes to target a wide range of chronic diseases, including Type 2 diabetes, hypertension and obesity.

WOULD-BE NONPROFIT SITE TO HOUSE UPSCALE DEVELOPMENT
BEDFORD-STUYVESANT — A century-old office building in BedfordStuyvesant will be turned into upscale residences or workspaces, despite state officials’ original intention of having a local nonprofit use the building to create jobs, according to THE CITY. The nonprofit group, Voras Enterprise, which is affiliated with the Northeast Brooklyn Housing Development Corp., sold the former state-owned building for $12 million in June to a company known as Rivington Company LLC. NEBHDCo poured $940,000 into running the building, but it still lost money and the building is largely empty, THE CITY reported. After Voras found itself in bankruptcy court, Bankruptcy Judge Nancy Hershey Lord expedited the sale over the objections of Jeffrey Dunston, president of Voras as well as CEO of NEBHDCo. Meanwhile, tenants of residential buildings owned by NEBHDCo are protesting conditions there, THE CITY said.

SALAZAR STILL DOESN’T HAVE A BROOKLYN OFFICE
CENTRAL BROOKLYN — State Sen. Julia Salazar has been in office for a year but still hasn’t opened a district office in which to meet her Brooklyn constituents, according to the New York Post. Salazar’s website lists her “temporary” district office as 250 Broadway in lower Manhattan, rather than within her senatorial district, which runs from GreenpointWilliamsburg to East New York, the Post said. In a recent interview with Kings County Politics, Salazar blamed her delay in renting an office on fiscal and bureaucratic snafus. “Whenever we find spaces — and we’ve found a lot — they have not met the pretty strict requirements, budgetwise and otherwise, of the Senate,” she told the website.

GAGE & TOLLNER COMES BACK TO LIFE
DOWNTOWN BROOKLYN — Untapped Cities recently took readers inside the redevelopment of the ground-floor storefront at 372 Fulton St., most recently a discount jewelry and clothing store, back into Gage & Tollner, one of the city’s oldest restaurants, which occupied the site for almost 100 years. The eatery closed in the mid1990s, and the space was home first to a T.G.I. Friday’s and then to an Arby’s before it ceased being a restaurant. Its original wall panels, arched mirrors and chandeliers are being brought back to their original appearance. Unlike in the original restaurant, the overhead lights will not have the capability to be lit with gas, as they were on special occasions way back when, but will now be totally electric. There will be a glass case on the second floor to hold artifacts, such as an ashtray from the original Gage & Tollner.

Spearheaded by Patricia Roman, senior associate director of patient relations, and Kathleen Terrio, coordinating manager, enterprise IT services, the hospital’s efforts began long before October during the sweltering summer months.

sales leading up to the Making Strides Brooklyn Walk on Oct. 20. At the same time, staff in appropriate roles began “Casual Fridays,” when, for a small donation, staff are permitted to wear jeans to work. “Staff, patients and families alike enjoy our Pink Wednesday events, and truly come together to show their generosity in hopes to one day find a cure,” said Roman, whose department raised more than $6,000 in a single day. “It’s a labor of love, and it is truly heartwarming to see individuals touched by
breast cancer in some way, work collaboratively for the cause.” Additionally, NYC Health + Hospitals/Coney Island hosted two new fundraising events this year: Strike Out Breast Cancer and Bowling for a Cure. MCU Park, which is the site of Making Strides Brooklyn, hosted Strike Out Cancer night. More than 100 staff members and their families attended a Brooklyn Cyclones game against the Vermont Lake Monsters, and the Cyclones donated a portion of the ticket sales back to the hospital’s Making Strides
efforts. “The Brooklyn Cyclones and MCU Park were fantastic hosts, and went above and beyond to promote the hospital’s efforts,” said Terrio, who coordinated the event. “It was fantastic to see our staff and their families come together for a fun night and a great cause in the community in which we serve.” The hospital’s pharmacy department hosted a bowling tournament in October at Shell Lanes. Following a spirited competition, a first place trophy was awarded to the winning team, while proceeds were donated to Making Strides Brooklyn. At the culmination of this
awareness month, Making Strides Brooklyn, Terrio and De Gennaro were joined by Mei Kong, RN, chief operating officer and chief nursing officer, to cut the ribbon to begin the inspiring event. Although a final tally won’t be available until the end of November, the hospital has already raised more than $28,000. In addition to funds raised, the hospital raised something that is equally as important as money: awareness. “At the end of the day, we want South Brooklyn to know we are here for them, and we’re proud to serve this community and provide exceptional care,” said Kong.

Eye Health for Older Adults: Reducing Risks of Age-Related Eye Diseases As people age, they are at higher risk for certain eye diseases and conditions, including age-related macular degeneration (AMD), cataract, diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma. “While many of these diseases and conditions have no warning signs, they can be detected in their early stages during a comprehensive eye exam,” says Dr. Bruce Rosenthal, chief of low vision services at Lighthouse Guild, the leading organization dedicated to addressing and preventing vision loss. The key to saving sight is early detection and treatment.” AMD is the leading cause of vision loss and blindness among adults over 50. It gradually destroys the macula, the part of the eye that provides sharp, central vision. A variety of treatments can help reduce the risk of vision loss in people with AMD. Cataract is a clouding of the lens in the eye that causes vision loss and is very common in older people. Surgery is the only effective treatment. It is one of the most common surgeries in the US.
Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes that damages blood vessels in the retina, the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. Early detection, timely treatment, and appropriate follow-up care can reduce the risk of vision loss by 95 percent. Glaucoma can cause fluid and pressure to build up in the eye and damage the optic nerve. It first affects side vision, but can lead to total vision loss without treatment Treating Low Vision Low vision describes vision loss that makes daily tasks difficult. “Normal aging of the eye does not lead to low vision; it is a result of eye diseases, injuries or both,” says Rosenthal. Low vision symptoms include loss of central and/or peripheral vision, blurred or hazy vision or night blindness. “If you experience any of these problems, it is important to see your ophthalmologist, who will check for and treat any underlying conditions and advise on resources, aids and devices — including brighter
lighting — to help with reading and other daily tasks,” Rosenthal explains. Systemic health problems like high blood pressure can affect eye health, and the ability to see clearly can change frequently. “Keep your ophthalmologist informed about your health conditions and use of medications and nutritional supplements, as well as your exercise, eating, sleeping and other lifestyle choices,” Rosenthal advises. Preventing Vision Loss Those with a family history of conditions such as macular degeneration, glaucoma and diabetes are at greater risk of developing these eye conditions. Early detection is the key to preserving vision. Diabetics are especially at risk. People with diabetes should schedule a complete eye examination that includes a dilated fundus exam (an evaluation of the retina) to look for very early signs of the condition. In addition to regular comprehensive eye exams, which
can detect problems before noticeable vision loss occurs, many lifestyle factors can play an important role in protecting vision as we age. Following these recommendations will support eye health: •Eating a balanced diet including dark, leafy greens and fish high in omega-3 fatty acids. •Maintaining a healthy weight and exercising. •Getting enough sleep to rest and continuously lubricate the eyes. •Quitting smoking. •Keeping diabetes under control. •Wearing sunglasses and a brimmed hat outdoors. •Wearing protective eyewear during vigorous activity. •Avoiding falls with slipproof rugs and secure railings. •Discussing your family’s eye health history with your eye care professional. “Prevention of vision loss — across the life span — is our vision insurance policy that can help to preserve and maintain our quality of life, especially as we get older,” Rosenthal says.

Champions of Justice gala raises money for breast cancer, saluting women in the law By Rob Abruzzese INBrooklyn
The Brooklyn legal community showed off its members’ support for each other and the collegiality they share during the Champions of Justice ceremony that honored women in the law, hosted by the Brooklyn Daily Eagle on Tuesday night. Some of the highlights of the event included three full tables of assistant district attorneys cheering and giving a standing ovation to support their chief of staff Maritza Mejia-Ming, multiple tables of hooting and hollering in support of RoseAnn Branda, and Tom Moore bragging that his wife Judith Livingston had successfully tried 35 cases that each resulted in at least a $1 million jury verdict. A total of 26 women were honored and the themes of their speeches often had nothing to do with themselves, but instead were about the other women who helped them along their paths, or the co-honorees they were proud to share the spotlight with. — Continued on page C4 —

“We’ve come together this evening to recognize and celebrate women in leadership at all levels in the Brooklyn community,” Justice DiMango continued. “While it’s true that we can’t all be Ruth Bader Ginsbergs or even Judge Judys, we all got here tonight by being success stories in our own right.”

Justice DiMango set the tone early when she explained some of the obstacles that she had to overcome to get where she is. She said that even though her path wasn’t always direct, she was often forced to adapt and became a better attorney and judge because of it. An example shared by Justice DiMango, who had always wanted to be an administrative judge in Brooklyn, happened when she was transferred to the Bronx Supreme Court. Instead of sulking, she used the transfer as an opportunity to prove that she was ready for the job in Brooklyn. It ultimately got her the attention of Judge Judy, the famous TV judge who produces Justice DiMango’s show. “Don’t focus on whether or not you have been slighted, because there is a good chance that you have been,” Justice DiMango joked. “My Bronx assignment could have been a disaster because on its face it was definitely not a favorable assignment. But I had a choice, and that was to view it as such or use it as an opportunity to make a name for myself.” Branda, who was presented with the Wonder Woman Award by her law partner Frank Carone, the president of the Brooklyn Bar Association, was the first to be honored. She was followed by Judy Livingston and then Marianne Bertuna. Please turn to page C5

Continued from page C4 “We have taken different paths to get here,” Livingston said. “We have been tried and faced different challenges, but all of you honored here tonight are so deserving because we successfully faced those challenges and brought about the truth that we know. I applaud all of you.” The other honorees included Lisa Marie Becker, Jennifer Bencivenga Mennella, Helene Blank, Grace Borrino, Carrie Anne Cavallo, Suzanne Corhan, Lucy DiSalvo, Rosemaria DeFrancisco, Fern Finkel, Susanne Gennusa, Yolanda Guadagnoli, Linda LoCascio, Natoya McGhie, Maritza Mejia-Ming, Laura Messiana, Joann Monaco, Rosa Pannitto, Holly Peck, Meryl Schwartz, Margaret Stanton, Mary Ann Stathopoulos, Diana Szochet and Joy Thompson. “I have been blessed to be surrounded by powerful mentors from the time I was just a law student,” Bertuna said. “I’ve always been in awe of RoseAnn Branda and here she is nominating me for tonight’s award. When I saw the list of co-honorees, I realized how important this award is and it means so much to me.” The nominees were all chosen by the various bar associations located in Brooklyn because of their distinguished careers and contributions to the bar and the legal community.
The money raised from the event is being donated to JALBCA, the Judges and Lawyers Breast Cancer Alert. Justices Marsha Steinhardt and Ellen Spodek were on hand and were thanked for their efforts in coordinating that effort.

You can walk from Boerum Hill to Brownsville. What a splendid slice of Brooklyn’s built environment. If you move at a normal pace, you can complete this stroll in a single outing. It took me two days. I blame my slow speed on the fact that I photographed buildings on almost every block. A zookeeper I recently interviewed suggested my spirit animal is a sloth. (I’d always assumed it’s a tiger, which is my college’s mascot.) Previously published Part One of my Bergen Street walk included Boerum Hill, Park Slope and Prospect Heights. Today’s story is Part Two, which is about Crown Heights and the Ocean Hill section of Brownsville.

STROLL DOWN BERGEN STREET, PART TWO
Eye on
REAL ESTATE
— Continued from page 12INB — LANDMARKED CHURCHES Bergen Street passes into the landmarked part of Crown Heights North to the east of the intersection of Nostrand Avenue. When you stand at that corner and look left up Nostrand Avenue, you’ll notice beautiful Bedford Central Presbyterian Church. The congregation’s origins date back to the early 1850s. The religious group affiliated with the Presbyterians in 1894, the church’s website says. The brick and terra-cotta church building is Romanesque Revival in its architectural style. The original portion of the building was constructed around 1897 and an enlargement was constructed around 1906, a city Landmarks Preservation Commission historic-district designation report says. When you keep walking, you’ll see Neo-Grec brownstones built in the 1870s and Romanesque-Revival rowhouses built in the 1880s. One of the prettiest clusters of Romanesque Revival homes on this stroll can be found on the corner of Bergen Street and New York Avenue. An architect named Charles Infanger designed and built the row of five buildings, whose addresses are 124 to 132 New York Ave., a designation report notes. (I’m not being specific about which designation report is which because there are three of them about different sections of Crown Heights North.) On another Bergen Street and New York Avenue corner, you’ll see lovely brick-and-sandstone Union United Methodist Church and its school and parsonage. The complex has multiple addresses including 121 New York Ave. It was constructed between 1889 and 1891. The church’s designer was J.C. Cady & Co., a firm that was considered a leader in the use of Romanesque-Revival architectural style back in the day, an LPC designation report says.
JULIET BALCONIES There are such lovely houses along there. For instance, as you walk between New York and Brooklyn avenues, you’ll see an unusual cluster of seven houses between 1187 and 1199 Bergen St. that was constructed in 1894. It’s unusual because the bricks that the houses are made of are the color of limestone, and they’re paired with bands of actual limestone. The pale hues are pretty together, especially since the roofs are made of contrasting red-clay tiles. Architectural details like Juliet balconies and curved window bays are interspersed among the houses. Albert E. White was the architect of this Romanesque-Revival grouping; John A. Bliss was the developer and original owner, a designation report says. If I described every Crown Heights North Bergen Street house that pleased my eye, it would take you a year to read this story. On the block between Brooklyn and Kingston avenues, flowers are still growing outside 1282 Bergen St. In 1898, F.K. Taylor designed and built the row next to it, which extends from 1284 to 1298 Bergen St. The facade of one house is vanilla-hued, another is strawberry-colored and a third is a deep shade of chocolate, a combination that calls to mind Neapolitan ice cream. The Bergen block between Kingston and Albany avenues has a nice surprise to offer. Partway down the block, on the north side of the street, you find the entrance to Revere Place. This is a landmarked street that runs for a single block between Bergen and Dean streets. There are 24 houses on Revere Place. The developer of all the homes was John A. Bliss, whom I just mentioned. He built them in 1896 and 1897. Once again, he teamed up with architect Albert E. White.
This new development is 2178 Bergen St. at the corner of Mother Gaston Boulevard. The houses’ style is a combination of Romanesque Revival and Renaissance Revival. The landmarked part of Crown Heights North ends before the intersection of Albany Avenue.
WEEKSVILLE HERITAGE CENTER
You can see Weeksville Heritage Center’s historic houses through the fence on Bergen Street. After you cross Troy Avenue, you’ll pass FDNY’s Rescue Company Number 2 firehouse at 1472 Bergen St. It stands beside a section of St. John’s Park called Buddy Keaton Fields. Past the intersection of Schenectady Avenue, Tamra Teahouse at 1524 Bergen St. is a good spot to take a break. Eater NY calls the restaurant an “under-the-radar Crown Heights Asian-Afro gem.” The butternut squash curry is great, by the way. After you pass the intersection of Rochester Avenue, you will find Weeksville Heritage Center. Through a fence, you can see historic wood-frame houses from a community James Weeks established in 1838 for free, landowning African-Americans. The houses stand on a gravel path that’s a remnant of Hunterfly Road, which was a Native American trail and later a street in Weeksville. You should plan a visit to Weeksville Heritage Center if you haven’t been there lately. I had the privilege of touring the houses last spring. It’s an extraordinary experience. At that time, Weeksville Heritage Center was raising money through a CrowdRise donations campaign to avoid closing. The fund-raising effort was successful. In June, thanks to elected officials’ advocacy, the city designated Weeksville Heritage Center as a member of its Cultural Institutions Group. This means the museum will receive unrestricted operating grants from the city Department of Cultural Affairs, which also will pay the heat, light and power bills. On the far side of Buffalo Avenue, there’s one more Bergen Street block within the boundaries of Crown Heights. The barrelvaulted rowhouses on this block are eye-pleasers.
INBrooklyn photos by Lore Croghan
If you swing around the block to Howard Avenue, you will find that Bergen Street becomes accessible to the public once again. The block that begins here is full of beautiful, old-fashioned rowhouses. “The Neighborhoods of Brooklyn,” a book edited by historians Kenneth Jackson and John Manbeck, identifies the neighborhood you’re now walking through as the Ocean Hill section of Brownsville. At the next Bergen Street intersection, there’s a handsome 80-unit apartment complex that uses 331 Saratoga Ave. as its address. It was built a couple years ago. Half the units are for very-low income and low-income tenants; the other half are studios for formerly homeless people. Beyond the new apartment building, the rest of the Bergen Street block is filled with eye-pleasing rowhouses. As Bergen Street proceeds towards Eastern Parkway Extension, the terrain becomes hilly, which makes sense given the neighborhood’s name. Bergen Street ends nearby at East New York Avenue. There, a new, 33-unit rental-apartment building is being developed. Seven of the apartments are affordable units for people who earn 40 percent of Area Median Income. This puts them in the category of very-low income tenants. When you’ve finished your stroll, if you need a subway to get home, Broadway Junction is a few blocks away. The A, C, J, Z and L trains stop here.
OCEAN HILL
The church at left is beautiful Bedford Central Presbyterian Church.
Ralph Avenue is the border of Crown Heights. When you reach the intersection, you might think this is the end of Bergen Street because you encounter a fenced-in compound. The New York City Children’s Center is located behind the fence. It’s a State Office of Mental Health facility for children and teens, with an outpatient clinic, day-treatment programs and other helpful things.

Provocative new production of “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” BY JOHN ALEXANDER JALEXANDER@ BROOKLYNEAGLE.COM
B
ig Daddy and Maggie the Cat have come to Brooklyn in a provocative new production of “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof,” the iconic American play by Tennessee Williams. Performed by the Gallery Players and directed by Owen Thompson, the show offers a dynamic new vision of the captivating Pulitzer Prize winning classic. “Blood pounds through the veins of this play as powerfully as any I can think of, and Tennessee Williams gives us some of his most vibrant characters with the matchless lyricism that made him — in my opinion — the greatest American playwright,” Thompson told this paper. The cast includes veterans of Broadway and local actors performing in the scorching, hard-hitting drama from one of the 20th century’s greatest playwrights. Amanda McCallum explained what inspired her to play the role of Maggie. “Maggie is one of the greatest creations ever written for the stage,” said McCallum. “It’s a dream role for actresses." “What director wouldn’t want to get their hands on a play by Mr. Williams at the height of his powers? And considering this play in 2019, one is struck by a new resonance,” said
Thompson. “The suffocating atmosphere of mendacity that poisons 1955 Mississippi in ‘Cat’ — a society built on slavery by white people blind to their privilege and who pathologically lie to themselves and each other — feels uncomfortably like the America in which we currently find ourselves. “Playgoers who come to our production will experience one that embraces Mr. Williams’ rhapsodic tenderness without shying away from his lacerating view of what human beings are capable of at their lowest, his exploration of, as Mr. Williams himself put it, ‘the shocking duality of the human heart,’” Thompson added. The play runs through Sunday, Nov. 10. Performances are Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 8 p.m., Saturdays (November 2 and 9) at 2 p.m., and Sundays at 3 p.m. There will be an artist talk-back following the Sunday, Nov. 3 performance. The Gallery Players is located at 199 14th St. (between Fourth and Fifth Avenues), in Park Slope, Brooklyn. Take the F, G, or R train to 4th Avenue/9th Street. Website: http:// galleryplayers.com. Tickets are $25 for adults and $20 for seniors over 65 and children under 12. Tickets can be purchased online at galleryplayers.com or by calling Ovationtix at 212-352-3101.

Civic group Liberty Kiwanis hosts 2019 annual golf outing BY JOHN ALEXANDER JALEXANDER@BROOKLYNEAGLE. COM
E
very year, Salvatore Gigenti, Liberty Kiwanis Club member and senior broker for Ben Bay Realty Company, hosts a golf outing at Dyker Beach Golf Club. This year’s event, held on Tuesday, Oct. 8, had over 160 attendees and honored three members of the Bay Ridge-Dyker Heights community. Kiwanis clubs focus on changing the world by serving children, one child and one community at a time. There are Kiwanis clubs in 80 nations that each help their communities in countless ways. Since each community’s needs are different, each Kiwanis club is different. By working together, members achieve what one person cannot accomplish alone. Kiwanis club members undertake nearly 150,000 service projects and raise nearly $1 million every year for communities, families and projects. This year’s event proved
to be one of the local group’s most successful outings with all proceeds going to help support the club’s mission of helping disabled and disadvantaged children in the community. Liberty Kiwanis has worked tirelessly within its community for over 35 years. Players had lunch at noon, teeing off an hour later. Following an afternoon of golf, there was a dinner reception at which Joe and Vinny Mancino, owners of Peppino’s restaurant and liquor store were presented with the 2019 Liberty Kiwanis Community Service Award. Real estate agent Christine Olivieri was named Member of the Year. Penney Santo, vice president of Liberty Kiwanis Club, said that without Girgenti and Ben Bay’s support, the club would not be able to hold the event every year. “This golf outing is so important because we honor so many great causes during the year,” she said. “Camp Kiwanis is one of our biggest events. It helps kids from the local area go away to camp.”

Liberty Kiwanis President Frank Fazio. There were 45 to 50 golfers and over 150 people at the dinner to celebrate the honorees and Camp Kiwanis. In addition, over 100 raffles were drawn. “The club also sponsors kids from the army base and Ronald McDonald
House, where we bring food and entertainment to the families several times a year,” said Santo. “We also help St. Jude’s with donations, and we fund gift cards for teenagers at Fort Hamilton Army Base.” Santo said the greatest feeling for her was the opportunity to give back. “It’s just a great feeling to give back to our kids, our seniors and those that need help,” she said. “That’s what
