FORMER SUNSET PARK ATTORNEY ARRAIGNED ON CHARGES OF GRAND LARCENY A former Sunset Park attorney was indicted on Monday, June 25 for allegedly stealing $150,000 from his escrow account. According to District Attorney Eric Gonzalez’s office, 53-year-old Robert Parker of Easton, Pennsylvania has been charged with two counts of second and third-degree grand larceny as well as two counts of first-degree perjury. According to the indictment, between 2014 and 2018, Parker, who had a law office in Sunset, is said to have stolen a down payment of approximately $98,000 in connection with a real estate transaction, on top of a settlement of $55,000 from a client before dodging multiple contact attempts. “This defendant was entrusted to safeguard these funds, but instead allegedly stole the money and used it for his own purposes,” said Gonzalez. “We will now hold him accountable for his alleged criminal actions.” Parker is set to return to court in September.

RIDGE POL’S FIRST BILL BECOMES LAW, BRINGING OPIOID EDUCATION TO CITY SCHOOLS Bay Ridge’s newest elected official is officially a lawmaker. Councilmember Justin Brannan’s first bill was signed into law by Mayor Bill de Blasio on Tuesday, June 26. The legislature addresses the ongoing opioid epidemic in Brannan’s district and beyond by making opioid education a reality in New York City schools. The bill, Int. 618-A, mandates that the city create and distribute age-appropriate educational materials about the effects of opioid abuse, to be given to students across city schools at the beginning of each school year. The bill piggybacks on Resolution 197, recently passed by the Council, which calls upon New York State to require the Department of Education to include opioid education in its public school curriculum. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuses, most substance abuse problems are said to begin before the age of 18, with the National Center for Health Studies also reporting that opioids cause more overdoses in kids ages 15 to 19 than any other drug category. The bill will go into effect in time for the start of the 2019 school year. --Meaghan McGoldrick

HBO to air documentary about Yusuf Hawkins murder BY PAULA KATINAS PAULA@BROOKLYNEAGLE.COM

tragic chapter in Bensonhurst history is the subject of a noholds-barred documentary that will air on HBO next year. HBO has given the green light to “Storm Over Brooklyn,” a documentary by filmmaker Muta’Ali that looks at the racially motivated murder of Yusuf Hawkins, a 16-year-old African American teen who was confronted by a group of white teens and shot to death on a Bensonhurst street corner on Aug. 23, 1989. The murder brought the long-simmering racial tensions that existed at the time in New York City to the surface. For nearly two years after the shocking crime, the Rev. Al Sharpton, the noted civil right leader, organized dozens of protest marches on 20th Avenue in Bensonhurst demanding justice in Hawkins’ name and was often met by jeers from angry white residents. The Hawkins slaying may have led indirectly to the election of David Dinkins, the city’s first, and so far only, African-American mayor. Dinkins defeated Mayor Ed Koch in

the Democratic primary a few weeks after the Hawkins slaying and beat Republican Rudy Giuliani in the general election in November of that year. “Storm Over Brooklyn” was recently cited as the best new feature documentary initiative at the American Black Film Festival. The film is set to air on HBO in 2019. Next year will also mark the 30th anniversary of the death of Yusuf Hawkins. If he were alive today, he would be 45 years old. “Yusuf Hawkins’ murder had a major effect on the public and the lockedaway regret and sorrow questions a history that those involved have held onto for nearly 30 years. We will finally see the light of day in the context of our time,” Muta’Ali told Variety. The executive producers of “Storm Over Brooklyn” are Jeff Friday, Simon Chinn, Jonathan Chinn, Daniel Lindsay and TJ Martin. The murder of Yusuf Hawkins was an ugly, painful chapter for many residents of Bensonhurst. Hawkins and three friends had gone to the predominantly white, working class, Italian-American neighborhood on the night of Aug. 23, 1989 to look at

a used car that was for sale, and were chased and confronted by a group of young men. Hawkins was shot twice in the chest. One of the young men in the crowd, Joseph Fama, 19, fired the fatal shots. He was convicted of second degree murder on May 17, 1990 and was sentenced to 32 and a half years to life in prison. He will become eligible for parole in 2022. Another defendant, Keith Mondello, was acquitted of murder and

manslaughter on May 18, 1990, but was found guilty of other charges including riot, menacing, discrimination, unlawful imprisonment and criminal possession of a weapon. Mondello, who was 19 at the time, was sentenced to five and a half to 16 years in prison. He served eight years and was released in 1998. Mondello later publicly apologized for the death of Yusuf Hawkins. The protest marches continued through 1990 and into 1991. Led by Sharpton, protesters routinely gathered in the schoolyard at P.S. 205 at 20th and Bay Ridge Avenues and then proceeded along 20th Avenue. Shortly before the start of a march on Jan. 12, 1991, Sharpton was attacked by a man who stabbed him in the chest. He recovered from his wounds. The assailant was arrested. The demographics of Bensonhurst have dramatically changed in the 29 years since the Hawkins slaying. Bensonhurst is no longer is a predominantly Italian-American community. While it is still a working class neighborhood, it is now home to large numbers of Asian, Russian and Middle Eastern immigrants.

New Supermarket Opens in Gravesend with a lot to offer.” Lopez said the store has been so busy since it opened that they were even too busy to have any kind of ribbon-cutting ceremony until now.

Cutting the ribbon. BY ARIAMA LONG EDITORIAL@BROOKLYNREPORTER.COM

brand-new supermarket has opened up in the heart of Gravesend. The Foodtown at 1949 Stillwell Ave. held its official ribbon-cutting on June 22. Present for the opening were the store owners and manager, local dignitaries including Assemblymember Bill Colton and State Sen. Marty Golden, and a rush of residents eager to get

their groceries as the doors opened that morning. Once the home of Scaturro Supermarket beginning in the ‘90s, the 20,000-square-foot lot became the site of Staples in 2007. To the delight of residents, given the current dearth of supermarkets in many portions of southwest Brooklyn, it has now returned to its grocery store roots. “Unique,” said first-time Manager Geovanny Lopez describing the new store and its services, “It’s a nice store

Cops win praise for taking guns off Bensonhurst streets BY PAULA KATINAS PAULA@BROOKLYNEAGLE.COM

olice officers who confronted suspects armed with guns on the streets of Bensonhurst were cited for their bravery by the 62nd Precinct Community Council at the group’s meeting on June 19. “I’m very proud of my cops,” Capt. Nelson Chen, the precinct’s executive officer, told council members and residents attending the meeting at the precinct station house at 1925 Bath Ave. Tuesday night. Chen and council President Lou Trimboli presented six police officers and a sergeant with Cop of the Month certificates. A group of five cops — Sgt. Jeffrey Berson, P.O. Jeffrey Stewart, P.O. Anthony Brucato, P.O. Nobin Samu and P.O. Jean Innocent — were honored for chasing and capturing a suspect armed with a .40 caliber Beretta pistol on East Fourth Street near Avenue V on May 17. The police stopped the suspect’s car at around 8:55 p.m. after spotting suspicious activity, according to Chen, who said the man jumped out of the auto and fled the scene. The officers chased him and caught up to him a short distance away. “The guy had a firearm in his waistband,” Chen said. The suspect was taken into custody and charged with gun possession. In an unrelated incident, P.O. Meghan Ruiz and P.O. Steve Konikoff nabbed another armed suspect and were cited by the council at the meeting.

Capt. Nelson Chen and council President Lou Trimboli handed out Cop of the Month Awards to P.O. Jeffrey Stewart, P.O. Anthony Brucato, P.O. Nobin Samu, Sgt. Jeremy Berson and P.O. Jean Innocent. They were on patrol on 63rd Street near 15th Avenue at around 5:10 p.m. on May 11 when they saw a man standing next to his car acting in a suspicious manner. The man, who was carrying a .45 pistol, tried to hide the gun from Ruiz and Konikoff by putting it under the hood of the car, Chen said. He didn’t fool the two cops, who quickly placed him under arrest. The gun turned out to have been stolen, according to Chen. The suspect was charged with possession of a stolen weapon. The two incidents are unusual, according to Chen, who said the vast majority of incidents in Bensonhurst and Bath Beach, the neighborhoods the precinct covers, deal with quality-of-life crimes. The meeting also featured a community speak-out in which residents bring their complaints directly to the

P.O. Jeffrey Stewart, who won a Cop of the Month Award, made the evening a family affair. His wife Asia and their children, Jeffrey Jr., 11, Justin, 10 and Jazmine, 5, were on hand to see his big moment.

precinct’s top cops. One man told Chen that truck drivers routinely flout the law and park trucks on residential streets overnight. The problem is particularly acute on Benson Avenue between 14th and 15th avenues and on Bay 8th Street near Benson Avenue, according to residents at the meeting. “They’re not our neighbors,” the resident said. Chen said he was aware of the problem and that the precinct is taking steps to solve it. “We have ticketed them. The next step, we’re going to tow them,” he said. Under New York City law, a driver is prohibited from parking a truck or any commercial vehicle on a residential street between the hours of 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. If the driver is issued a parking ticket, the burden of proof is on the driver to prove that he or she was engaged in business at the time the ticket was issued and that the place where the motorist was conducting that business is located within a three-block radius, according to the city’s Department of Transportation. Public utilities, as well as gas, oil and heating system companies, are exempt from the “No Parking” rule. The June meeting was the last precinct council meeting of the season. The group does not meet in July or August. “Our next meeting is in September. But that doesn’t mean the work stops,” Trimboli said, adding that the council is busy preparing for the annual Night Out Against Crime event in August.

Police Officers Meghan Ruiz and Steve Konikoff, pictured with Capt. Nelson Chen and Council President Lou Trimboli, received awards for arresting a suspect who allegedly had a stolen gun.

P.S. 188 debuts new vision center for students BY PAULA KATINAS PAULA@BROOKLYNEAGLE.COM

tudents at P.S. 188 are doing a lot more these days than learning their ABC’s. The youngsters are getting valuable lessons in how to take better care of their eyes and preserve their vision. P.S. 188, at 3314 Neptune Ave. in Coney Island, marked the grand opening of its new OneSight Vision Center on June 22. The all-purpose eye care facility offers exams, glasses and other services for students at P.S. 188, as well as surrounding schools.

predicted. A child with poor vision often can’t see what the teacher has written on the blackboard, falls behind in school, or acts up in class out of frustration, he said. A simple eye exam could reveal that the child needs glasses. Once the youngster is fitted with glasses and can see the blackboard, a whole new world opens up to the youngster. Zucker recalled his Bronx childhood when a classmate of his kept squinting in her attempts to see the blackboard in class. It turned out that she needed glasses. She got them. “And her life literally changed,” he said. A school-based health center sets a child on the right road, Savino said. “It will make them not afraid to take care of their health. They won’t have a fear of going to the doctor,” she said. And a healthy child can improve the health of the entire family, McReynolds said. “Seeing their child taking care of his or her health encourages parents to start taking care of theirs, too,” he said. P.S. 188 is a model for what schools should look like in the future, according to Mulgrew, who said they should be community centers and provide health care. “It doesn’t work anymore, the old model,” he said. “It’s about the children we’re trying to service and to try to figure out a way to get the services to the families.” Treyger, chairperson of the Council’s Education Committee, said he would like to establish community centers and health clinics in all public schools.

York’s poorest families, according to Treyger, who cited a study by the National Diaper Network, which found that a family will go through 3,000 diapers, at a cost $500, during the first year of an infant’s life. The lack of diapers also holds parents back in the job market, Treyger said. Many childcare centers mandate that children come with their own diapers. Parents who can’t afford diapers are unable to work or attend school, he said. There are currently no government programs providing diapers for infants. Parents cannot use Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) cards or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) cards to buy diapers.

Dyker Real Estate as Diverse as its History BY BRANDON SAPIENZA EDITORIAL@BROOKLYNREPORTER.COM

ouses in Dyker Heights are some of the most unique homes, perhaps in the entire city. With massive properties and mansions sprinkled throughout the area, those with money tend to flock to the area in search of their dream home. So do longtime savers who simply love the ‘hood. Currently in Dyker, there are more t ha n 20 0 properties available for rent or purchase. Many of these properties include condos and apartments, giving those with a smaller budget an opportunity to live in the area without breaking the bank. According to Trulia, a top site for buyers, sellers, renters and real estate

Some of the homes in Dyker Heights. professionals, the median price of a home in Dyker currently sits at $915,000, while the average rent is $2,350. Though Dyker isn’t one of the “trendy” neighborhoods like Park

Slope or Williamsburg, many of the houses in the area are spacious, beautifully designed and made for families. Most of the homes have three bedrooms and two bathrooms and, despite a smaller square footage for most yards, kids of all ages will always have something to do with the many other children who call Dyker Heights home.

Of late, properties in Dyker have seen a significant spike it prices due to the demand of housing and all the neighborhood benefits that go with it. From July, 2013 to January, 2018, properties in the area have seen a 41 percent increase in median price, according to Trulia. However, in that same time frame, the amount of sales have fluctuated significantly. In regards to renting, while for a long time it wasn't popular in Dyker, the amount of renters has reached a high point with 19 properties currently being rented. Just a few months before, 32 properties were being rented out. Additionally, rent prices have seen a very large increase between October and December of 2017, with prices rising to as high as $3,200 per month. Dyker homes are one of the best kept secrets in Brooklyn. Thanks to people not necessarily “flocking” to the neighborhood like they are to many other high-end Brooklyn ’hoods, prices of homes can remain lower than in other nabes, helping those who love Dyker call the community their home for a little while, or for life.

Living and Learning in Dyker Heights BY BRANDON SAPIENZA EDITORIAL@BROOKLYNREPORTER.COM

yker Heights has above average schools that provide a solid foundation for all children to learn and grow in warm environments. The area, though small in size and part of a city public school district that’s notably overcrowded, is home to three private schools and four public schools. Combined, these seven schools range in grades from Nursery to 8. St. Ephrem, located at 7415 Fort Hamilton Parkway, offers a wide variety of extracurricular activities and programs to all of its students and is run by Principal Craig Mercado. For years, the school has received consistent praise from parents and students alike. St. Bernadette, 1313 13th Avenue, also offers a bevy of programs that allow for the growth and development of its students. This school, under the guidance of Sister Joan DiRienzo, is also highly regarded throughout the community.

P.S. 176 is among the stellar schools in Dyker Heights. Leif Ericson Day School, 1037 72nd Street, is the last of the private schools in Dyker and has been a longstanding staple at which students are allowed to grow not only in terms of education, but also in their spirituality. Students have done just that with Christine Hauge as principal. In terms of public schools, they are scattered in every corner of the neighborhood for the convenience and zoning of the thousands of students who attend. P.S. 176, 1225 Bay Ridge Avenue, is

run by Elizabeth Culkin and is one of the four public schools in Dyker whose test scores exceed city and district averages. 176 offers an abundance of programs in sports and technology, helping students adapt to the way of the world in the 21st century. The school also offers learning in languages such as Hebrew and Cantonese. It accomplishes all this while ranking as one of, if not the most, overcrowded school in the district. As of 2015, 176 was at 175 percent capacity, though, it continues to thrive academically.

P.S. 127, 7805 Seventh Avenue, run by principal Agatha Alicandro, also offers activities and programs relevant to the present day. Additionally, 127 is one of the only schools in Brooklyn to offer a track and field program given at the track course in the schoolyard. I.S. 259, 7301 Fort Hamilton Parkway and I.S. 201, 8010 12th Avenue, make for great choices of middle schools. I.S. 201 is run by Robert Ciulla, who is the successor to longtime principal Madeline Brennan. 259’s principal is Janice Geary. Both schools are among the best in both the borough and the city with test scores 20-30 percent higher than the New York State average, and nearly 10 percent better than the district average. Wherever a student in Dyker goes, locals agree, they are bound to receive a quality education that will allow them to excel in the future. “The success of these schools can be attributed to the great teachers, experienced principals, active parents and, of course, the future leaders of our community, the students,” said Councilmember Justin Brannan.

Check Out These Top-Dollar DUMBO Condo Sales By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

Lovely and landmarked or high-rise and modern. Either way, DUMBO homes command some of the highest prices in Brooklyn. Keep in mind that when we say a DUMBO home has sold for $4 million, we're talking about an apartment. In many beloved neighborhoods in our borough, a sum of half that size will buy you a standalone Victorian house with a yard and a garage or a historic brownstone on a beautiful block.

Stroll with us through cobblestoned waterfront DUMBO, where dazzling Brooklyn Bridge Park serves as the residents' front yard. We'll show you several buildings where big-ticket apartment sales have recently closed.

in 2017. At the time, it was the priciest condo ever sold in Brooklyn. The landmarked building is located near an entrance to Brooklyn Bridge Park.

See Brooklyn Bridge Park in Its Summer Splendor Brooklyn Bridge Park’s Pier 1 offers iconic views of Lower Manhattan at every hour of the day, but they're particularly dazzling in the early morning. INBrooklyn photo by Lore Croghan By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

It is a truth universally acknowledged that Brooklyn Bridge Park is an Instagram mecca. Some of the spots in this mecca that are most popular with photographers are kinda crowded now that summer's here. One hot spot is at the edge of the water on Pier 1, near the area where NYC Ferry riders line up to wait for boat arrivals. Photos taken there capture iconic views of the World Trade Center, Lower Manhattan's skyline, the East River and the Brooklyn Bridge. We've been trying to figure out the optimal times to take pictures on Pier 1 during the summer. We discovered an ideal moment — if you don't mind getting out of bed early on a weekend. It's 7:30 a.m. on Sunday.

The ferry's commuter crowds are absent. Most people are getting ready for church or sleeping after Saturday night revelry. You'll have Pier 1 pretty much to yourself. The stillness is deeply calming. You should check weather reports beforehand — because if you're giving up the opportunity to sleep late, you should be rewarded by getting to see what early-morning sunlight looks like on the East River. It adds a silvery sheen to the beloved World Trade Center and other Lower Manhattan skyscrapers. Another optimal time to take Pier 1 pix is in the evening between 7:15 p.m. and 7:45 p.m. The skyscrapers frame the blazing sun as it drops towards the horizon. It's an urban version of Stonehenge. As you can imagine, the entire Brooklyn Bridge Park is looking pretty great now that it's summer. We took additional pictures of it, which you can see at brooklyneagle.com.

Landmarked 70 Washington St., which is the building at right, can be seen from Brooklyn Bridge's walkway. The 2007 designation report about the DUMBO Here’s a glimpse of condo building 100 Jay St. with a Manhattan Bridge ramp in front of it. Historic District says that INBrooklyn photos by Lore Croghan Industrial Neo-Classicalstyle 70 Washington St. was constructed in 1911. There's a clock at the top of it, far more modest than the DUMBO Clocktower's but nice in any case. A condo unit at 70 Washington St. sold for $1.69 million in May. It had previously sold for $1.281 million in 2014, and before that, buyers paid $1.22 million for it in 2007, Finance Department records show. In 2005, the initial purchaser bought the apartment for $941,881 from the condo converter, Finance Department records indicate.

The DUMBO Clocktower Building's condo conversion was the work of Two Trees Management. The Walentas family's company, as you surely know, created modern-day DUMBO almost singlehandedly by buying picturesque industrial buildings and turning them into office and residential properties. According to the city Landmarks Preservation Commission's 2007 designation report about the DUMBO Historic District, 1 Main St. is made of reinforced concrete. Its architectural style is Industrial Neo-Classical. Constructed in 1914, it was the pride of Gairville — a complex of eye-catching buildings that housed Scottishborn industrialist Robert Gair's corrugated paper box factories. Gair also rented space in the complex to businesses that belonged to other people. Anyway. About the most recent transaction in the DUMBO Clocktower Building. A condo on one of its lower floors sold for $4 million in June. City Finance Department records show that the sellers had owned the unit since 1999.

Right This Way to Selfie Central

Nearby Washington Street is the selfie capital of the world, or Brooklyn at least. When you stand in the middle of the road near the intersection of Water Street, you see the Empire State Building framed by the blue-green supports of the Manhattan Bridge on the nearby East River shoreline. Thanks to Instagram, photographers know this whether they're from Ohio or France or Japan. Anybody who's bold enough to drive a car on this block must proceed with extreme caution since selfie snappers act like they own the street. A couple blocks up from the water's edge, you'll find 70 Washington St., another landmarked concrete Gairville property that was converted into a condo building. It has facades on Front, Washington and York streets and is visible from the Brooklyn Bridge's pedestrian path.

Mr. Bliss's Machine Shop and A Bend in the Road A century ago, an industrialist with the melodious name of Eliphalet W. Bliss built a machine shop at 51 Jay St. The name that's now on the landmarked building's facade is that of Ben Forman & Sons, a metal-stamping firm that was a later occupant. Recently, co-developers Adam America Real Estate and Slate Property Group did a historically sensitive condo conversion of the building, which has frontage on Plymouth, Jay and Water streets. The sale of one of its penthouses just closed in May. The price was $4.003 million, Finance Department records indicate. Now, let's head down Water Street and follow it to its end. It runs along the edge of Brooklyn Bridge Park, parallel to the East River — and hooks southwards beneath the Brooklyn Bridge to keep following the shoreline. At the spot where the road bends, there's a charming landmarked house, 4 Water St. Two facades of the building are on Water Street because of the path the road takes. The historic house has been divided into condos. One of the units changed hands in March. The price was $1.99 million. The sellers had bought it from the condo converter for $997,885 in 2007, Finance Department records show.

The unit whose address is 55 Pearl St. was sold in May for $4.6 million. Finance Department records indicate that the seller had bought it from the developer for $4,474,824 in 2015. A couple blocks away, you'll see another modern development at 100 Jay St. It's hard to miss, since it's a 33-story tower in a neighborhood of mostly low- and mid-rise buildings. It has frontage on York, Jay and Front streets. The fourth side of the building faces the Manhattan Bridge and has a glassy, curved facade. The J Condominium, as it's called, was built more than a decade ago. In June, an apartment on a high floor was sold for $2.715 million. According to Finance Department records, the sellers bought it from the condo developer for $1,781,937 in 2008.

Which Way to Pearl Street?

Pearl Street is one of those place names that's used on both sides of the East River, in Lower Manhattan and DUMBO. Do you draw a blank when you try to remember where the Brooklyn version of it is located? If so, go to DUMBO's Archway under the Manhattan Bridge, then walk across the adjacent plaza. In short order, you will wind up at the corner of Pearl and Water streets. This is where architect Jared Della Valle's Alloy Development constructed the DUMBO Townhouses a couple years ago. Each condo in this five-unit property is four stories tall.

SUMMER FUN Sizzlin’ Summer Strolls Coming on Third And Fifth Avenues By Ariama Long

editorial@brooklynreporter.com

Tables and tents fill the streets, decorative lights are strung across the avenue, and thousands of visitors and residents mingle as Bay Ridge welcomes summertime on Third and Fifth Avenues with evening events that close the thoroughfares to traffic and bring local residents out to enjoy everything the strips have to offer on various Fridays this July and August. The Merchants of Third Avenue, working with the Department of Transportation (DOT), will sponsor four Summer Strolls this year, and the Bay Ridge Fifth Avenue Business Improvement District, again with city DOT, will host two of the events, which are essentially commercial block parties put together by local businesses, not-forprofit organizations and arts groups to promote the use of public space. For Summer Stroll on Third Avenue, the strip -- closed off from regular traffic to function as a pedestrian plaza -- will feature restaurants pulling tables out onto the street, musicians and other performers, art exhibits and the offerings of local merchants. “It’s an opportunity for residents to dine al fresco,” said President of MTA Robert Howe, who thoroughly enjoys people-watching during the events. “They bump into people they haven’t seen in years, and enjoy a Friday night. It hearkens back to a day where there wasn’t much traffic and you could walk the avenue.” This year, Third Avenue’s Summer Stroll will take place between 68th and 80th Streets on Friday, July 13 and Friday August 3, and between 80th and 90th Streets on Friday, July 20 and Friday, August 10, from 6 to 10:30 p.m., all days. Just two avenues away, the Fifth Avenue BID’s “The FACE of 5th (Family, Arts & Culinary Event)” will also liven up lazy summer nights. It’s scheduled to take place between 73rd and 83rd Streets on Friday, July 27 and Friday, August 17 from 5 to 10 p.m. BID Executive Director Amanda Zenteno said in an email, “Local restaurants will be participating with many diverse outdoor dining options. The avenue will be car free and filled with music, art and family friendly activities.” Among the highlights that attendees can look forward to are rides and games, live bands, basketball games and martial arts demonstrations, and even a pet “kissing” booth. In addition, the BID is looking to feature local artists and their artwork this year. Interested artists can contact the office at info@bayridgebid.com or submit an application through the website at bayridgebid.com/strolls. ebrooklyn media/file photos Week of June 28-July 4, 2018 • INBROOKLYN — A Special Section of Brooklyn Eagle//Heights Press/Home Reporter/Brooklyn Spectator/Brooklyn Record/Greenpoint Gazette • 25INB

Luna Park Rewards Students With Good Grades This Summer BY ARIAMA LONG EDITORIAL@BROOKLYNBROOKLYN.COM

he beginning of summer break promises to be rewarding at Luna Park in Coney Island for students who racked up good grades this past school year. The amusement park will be providing credits toward rides for those with a grade of B or higher through July 1. Open to all students, from kindergarten through college, the promotion is meant to welcome students and their families of all ages to enjoy the park’s offerings. The games and rides use a credit system; credits can be purchased online or in person and loaded onto a swipe card. Students can cash in up to five grades at the guest services desk from any 2018 report card, earning up to 20 ride credits. An A grade receives four credits and a B

grade receives three credits. “It is an honor to celebrate the academic achievement of students, and we invite all those who worked hard this school year to trade in their textbooks for thrills at Luna Park,” said Alex Zamperla, president of the amusement ride company Zamperla Group, in a press release. “Since the program’s inception in 2013, we have helped to kick off a much-deserved summer vacation with extraordinary rides and amusements.” Named after the original amusement park in Coney Island from 1903, Luna Park debuted three new attractions this season including an interactive gaming console that allows guests to shoot aliens called the Cozmo Jet, a swinging pirate ship dubbed the Coney Clipper, and the 21st century Astro Tower, a dramatic 137-foot freefall drop ride.

BROOKLYN STREETCAR GROUP Theatre for Kids and FamiliesARTISTS’ Opens in Park Slope ACTIVE THROUGHOUT THE BOROUGH By John Alexander INBROOKLYN

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. For more details, show times, tickets, and contact information, go to www.PlayNicePeople. com.

NEIGHBORHOOD NEWSBEAT Activists Fear High-rises Could Cast Shadows On Botanic Gardens CROWN HEIGHTS — Crown Heights community activists are reportedly fighting to prevent the approval of several high-rise buildings that they say will cast shadows onto the nearby Brooklyn Botanic Garden and deprive plants of sunlight. Two buildings of at least 16 stories have been proposed for 40 Crown St. and 931 Carroll St., according to amNewYork. The developer, Cornell Realty Management, needs approval from the city because the area is zoned only for buildings up to six or seven stories. Another firm, the Continuum Company, has submitted a preliminary application for a development at 960

Franklin Ave. that would rise as high as 37 stories. A group known as The Movement to Protect the People is leading the effort against the developers, amNewYork said. “These shadows actually go past the garden and touch Prospect Park,” said Alicia Boyd, leader of the Movement. In addition, Elizabeth Reina-Longoria, a spokeswoman for the Botanic Garden, said, “BBG is strongly advocating to maintain the site’s current zoning — which now caps building height to six or seven stories — which was put in place, in part, to protect the garden’s conservatories from building shadows.”

Report: Brownsville Lacks Parks and Open Space BROWNSVILLE — The independent research and advocacy organization New Yorkers for Parks published a report that revealed there is not enough available parkland in Brownsville and the parks that do exist are in poor condition, City Limits reported. “Quality open spaces are important for all New Yorkers, but particularly in areas where parks are suffering from years of neglect,” said executive director of New Yorkers for Parks Lynn Kelley. Among the open space benchmarks looked at in the report were total amount of open space, tree canopy and ability to access. The study also looked at overall maintenance. Brownsville failed 10 out of 14 of these markers. An upcoming $30 million investment in Betsy Head Park and planned renovation of the recreation center will help the community and is a step in the right direction. During the planned work, however, access will be even worse for residents, the report said.

NYU Rents Administrative Space in MetroTech Campus METROTECH — New York University, whose Tandon Engineering School of Engineering is located at 6 MetroTech Center, has reportedly completed a 26,000-square-foot deal for more space at 1 MetroTech Center. The university will relocate several of its administrative support offices, now within its Greenwich Village campus, to the 22nd floor of 1 MetroTech, the Commercial Observer reported. “We have been planning for some time to find a new home for our IT administrative offices away from our core,” NYU spokesman John Beckman told the Commercial Observer in an email. “Since the merger with the former Polytechnic University [now Tandon School of Engineering], we have focused on Brooklyn as an excellent choice for an expanded NYU presence.” MetroTech, whose other tenants include the New York Fire Department, National Grid, MakerBot, ImpreMedia and TransCare Corporation, is owned by Forest City Ratner Corp.

HBO has given the green light to “Storm Over Brooklyn,” a documentary by filmmaker Muta’Ali that looks at the racially motivated murder of Yusuf Hawkins, a 16-year-old African American teen who was confronted by a group of white teens and shot to death on a Bensonhurst street corner on Aug. 23, 1989. The murder brought the long-simmering racial tensions that existed at the time in New York City to the surface. For nearly two years after the shocking crime, the Rev. Al Sharpton, the noted civil right leader, organized dozens of protest marches on 20th Avenue in Bensonhurst demanding justice in the name of Yusuf Hawkins and was often met by jeers from angry white residents. The film is set to air on HBO in 2019. Next year will also mark the 30th anniversary of the death of Yusuf Hawkins. If he were alive today, he would be 45 years old. ebrooklyn media/file photo

Tajik Restaurant in Sheepshead Bay Serves Traditional Central Asian Dishes SHEEPSHEAD BAY — It’s not easy to find the food of Tajikistan, one of the former Central Asian Soviet republics, but one place to do so is Cafe Dushanbe at 1788 Sheepshead Bay Road. According to The New York Times, it may be the only restaurant in New York that serves the traditional dish kurutob, made of shredded flatbread, salad and a dressing of kurut, salty sun-dried yogurt balls dissolved in hot water. Among the other dishes served there are samsa gizhda, small meat pies with a soft wrapping of dough; okroshka, a cool summer soup made with yogurt, radish, dill, a quail egg and cream; shashlik, similar to shishkebab; and morkovcha, julienne carrots seasoned with garlic, vinegar and kumin. Owner and chef Alidzhon Imanov and manager Aslam Abudullove are both natives of Tajikistan. The restaurant is half a block from Emmons Avenue, Sheepshead Bay’s main drag.

Donovan Proposes Legislation Amid Worries About VA Medical Center BAY RIDGE — Amid worries that the VA Medical Center in Brooklyn could close, leaving veterans in both Staten Island and Brooklyn stuck trekking to Manhattan for care, Rep. Daniel Donovan introduced legislation to make sure that veterans are notified of any closures or service cuts at medical centers nationwide, The Staten Island Advance reported. “A doctor’s office would never just cease service and not proactively contact their patients — it shouldn’t be any different at a VA facility,” Donovan said. The Veterans Awareness Act would require the Department of Veteran Affairs to give at least 60 days’ notice to both veterans and their local congressional representative before closing a location or making service cuts. It would also mandate that the department hold forums to allow veterans and other stakeholders to voice their opinions.

AIDS Services to Make Way For High-Rises in Boerum Hill BOERUM HILL — HIV-AIDS patients in Boerum Hill are criticizing city officials for not going public about their plans to close and relocate a health services center that stands in the way of a controversial high-rise development. The HIV-AIDS Services Administration center at 94 Flatbush Ave. occupies a parcel owned by Alloy Development, which hopes to build its five-building 80 Flatbush complex on the site. According to the Brooklyn Paper, officials, who rent the center’s space from Alloy, probably knew of the developer’s plan for at least a year but have yet to officially inform clients. “It’s deeply concerning for us, especially for an agency whose clients’ lives literally depend on accessing these services,” said Jason Walker, who works at the HIV advocacy group Vocal New York. The city plans to temporarily move the center’s operations to a nearby Third Avenue facility and then move it to a permanent home on Evergreen Avenue in Bushwick, a spokeswoman for the Human Resources Administration told the Brooklyn Paper.

Brownsville High School Teacher Takes Students on Trip of a Lifetime BROWNSVILLE — A Brownsville high school teacher was nominated for the Hometown Hero Award for giving his students the chance to experience cultures and life outside of their borough. Bijoun Eric Jordan, a Frederick Douglass Academy VII English teacher, has taught in city schools for 14 years, and he wants his pupils, mainly African-Americans and Hispanics from economically disadvantaged families, to travel the world because they may not have the funds to do so on their own. Jordan, 36, raised $42,000 last year for his students to travel to Spain, where they visited Madrid and Barcelona. This year, he plans on taking students from the “International Club” to Japan so they can explore Tokyo and Osaka. With the help of an online fundraiser, the teacher has raised $60,300, reaching the goal of $58,570 for the weeklong trip. “I want my students to see that black people travel everywhere,” Jordan said. “It’s not just places like Brownsville, Brooklyn, where we belong. We can hustle and get anywhere.”

The Gay/Straight Alliance of the New York State Courts System, or simply the Alliance, held an LGBTQ Pride event at the Supreme Court in Manhattan on Thursday that was broadcast across the state to 18 different courthouses via Skype. â&#x20AC;&#x153;TheAlliance is a pioneering organization, WKH ÂżUVW VWDWHZLGH /*%74 RUJDQL]DWLRQ LQ any state court system,â&#x20AC;? said Marc Levine, president of the Alliance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Alliance is dedicated to addressing the needs of LGBTQ people within the state courts.

The alliance was created by Levine in Brooklyn approximately 15 years ago as a response to the treatment that he and other LGBTQ courthouse employees faced. He remarked in his statements that the Alliance helped to usher in a much more welcoming and inclusive environment for court employees almost overnight. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When the Alliance happened and we started going to courts and holding

FAITH IN BROOKLYN

Prominent Family of Ministers Denounces Immigration Policy By Francesca Norsen Tate INBrooklyn

Faith communities around Brooklyn this week denounced the Trump administration’s zero-tolerance immigration policy over the past week, particularly what they declared as the cruel practice of separating children from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border, and holding the children in detention centers with no organized plan of reuniting these families. And just after midnight on June 27, news broke that a federal judge in California had issued a nationwide injunction halting the child separation policy and mandating family reunification. Several hours later, Congress rejected a comprehensive immigration bill that has also divided the majority party. The Rev. Dr. Herbert and the Rev. Dr. Karen Daughtry, heads of a clergy family with five generations of faith leaders, and a Brooklyn presence for 60 years, held a press conference last Saturday, June 23 at the House of the Lord Church to decry the policy that they say has permanently traumatized children in ways that could later haunt this nation. “These children, ranging in age from under one year of age to teen years, have been put in a position of psychological

danger and are being used by those in high places as political pawns without regard to the damage being done by their actions to the psychological damages being visited upon these children,” said Dr. Karen Daughtry. “As a parent, although all of my children are adults, I can’t imagine not knowing how they are. As a citizen of these United States, I understand that protecting our borders is necessary and that guidelines to do so must be put in place but not at the expense of the most vulnerable in society. As an early childhood educator, I know that the early years beginning at birth and until around the age of four are most important, and immeasurable damage can be done to young children who suffer traumatic episodes during this period. Certainly to be torn from the arms of parents and taken to strange places with strange people fits the bill as one of these.” Much of Saturday’s press conference focused on the Daughtrys’ point that there has been no plan to handle the flow of immigrants across borders into the United States compassionately. “Even with the executive order stopping the separation practice, you’ve got 2,000 children — still someplace,” said

The Rev. Dr. Herbert Daughtry, presiding prelate of House of the Lord Church, addresses the news media. In background, left, his daughter, Sharon Daughtry, two anonymous congregants, and the Rev. Dr. Karen S. Daughtry (at right). INBrooklyn Photo by Francesca N. Tate Dr. Karen Daughtry. “The governor of the State of New York said he has a legal responsibility to take care of these children, physically and emotionally. And he — the governor — cannot find out how to get into the places where these children are because they have put a gag order on the places where the children have been put, in the State of New York! We might have a plan here in New York,

but there is no national or global plan to hook these children up with the people they belong to.” Dr. Herbert Daughtry, who spoke at length earlier in the conference, also expressed hope. “When all is said and done, I hope I live to see the day that America becomes what America can become,” he said. “The withering past is no match for the budding future.”

Grace Church’s Rector Points to ‘Fear of the Other’ As A Reason Behind Current Immigration Policy Episcopal Diocese Hosts Prayer Service For Immigrant and Refugee Families

The rector of Grace Church Brooklyn Heights addressed the child separation policy in his Sunday, June 24 sermon. The Rev. Dr. Allen Robinson linked the story of Jesus’ calming the storm (from Matthew 4:35-41) to the current immigration crisis, focusing on Jesus’ invitation to “go to the other side,” and the fear that the disciples experienced during the tempest. Robinson spoke of a societal ‘other side’ — “those who feel rejected, who feel abandoned, who feel forgotten, who feel as if their lives don’t matter, as if their lives just simply don’t matter,” Robinson emphasized. “At this very moment, the Gospel is alive and well — this story is alive and well — on the borders of Texas, the borders of California, the borders of Arizona, where children are being taken away from their

parents. And so the Gospel calls us to wrestle with the question: What are we supposed to do with those who are on the other side? “I submit that the apostles were afraid to go to the other side because they were comfortable at home,” he continued. “It was their comfort zone. The people they knew looked like them, smelled like them…They liked the same food, had the same culture. So what happens when a new group of people is introduced into the system? “Somehow, they began to take on a sense of fear, much like the way people at home worry that ‘we’re losing our identity, and we’re losing our position in the world, and somehow, we’re losing our way of life if we introduce a lot of new people to come in and enter our country.’ And so, what do we do with our fear?” he asked.

The Episcopal Diocese of Long Island, responding to the outpouring of love and concern for families separated at the border, was set to hold a prayer service and time of fellowship for immigrant and refugee families. The bilingual (Spanish/English) candlelit service in the cathedral was scheduled for 7:30-8 p.m., with conversation following in the undercroft from 8-9 p.m. Pastoral care and conversation

with experts in the field of immigration and asylum were provided. Among the actions being announced at the service is a series of Families Belong Together rallies being held this Saturday, June 30, in New York City (Brooklyn, Queens and Long Island), Washington, D.C. and around the country. The Brooklyn rally and march originates at Foley Square in Manhattan at 10 a.m. and heads across the Brooklyn Bridge.

Readers who find their faith enriched through the fine arts will be happy to learn that the Brooklyn Museum this week announced the re-installment of its acclaimed relief sculpture, “The Resurrection of Christ,” by Renaissance artist Giovanni della Robbia. “The Resurrection of Christ” is on view now in the museum’s third floor Focus Gallery. Created around 1520, “The Resurrection” was commissioned by the Antinori family, historical Tuscan vintners since 1385. At nearly 12 feet long, “The

Resurrection” originally adorned a wall of the Antinori family’s villa outside Florence, Italy. Nearly 400 years later, “The Resurrection” became the first Renaissance work to enter the museum’s collection when it was acquired in 1899. The colorful relief -- which was out of view from the late 1990s through an extensive restoration in 2015 -- went back on exhibit earlier this month. Funding this project was the same Antinori family whose ancestors originally commissioned the relief.

Our earth angel is now heaven’s angel. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation in her memory to the Guild for Exceptional Children, 260 68th St., Brooklyn, NY 11220. Mass of Christian Burial Our Lady of Angels R.C. Church. All services entrusted to Clavin Funeral Home.

Bin Fei Lai, Valentina Kirlova, Valentina Papouk, Katrin Shevchuk and Alexandra Pink attended Marty Golden's senior information fair at St. Anselm Catholic Academy's Meletia Hall on Friday, June 22 in Bay Ridge.

Senior Fair Provides Info and Fun BY ARIAMA LONG EDITORIAL@BROOKLYNREPORTER.COM

tate Senator Marty Golden’s 14th annual Senior Information Fair was held on Friday, June 22 at St. Anselm Catholic Academy—365 83rd St.—in Bay Ridge. The event featured about 25 city representatives, state agencies and nonprofits as well as local Senior Idol winner Tommy Anderson, who entertained the crowd with lively and nostalgic music. “It’s good for seniors to get updates and info because so much is online nowadays,” said the senator’s Deputy Chief of Staff and Press Secretary John Quaglione about the direct approach the fair takes to reach an older demographic. “What makes a community strong is when you keep them involved.” Hosted by Golden at his home parish this year, the event attracted an estimated 350 seniors who got to engage with city agencies and programs designed to enrich their lives. The chair of the Senate Aging Committee, Golden’s accomplishments include passage of the Assisted

State Senator Marty Golden addressing the group. Living Law of 2004, Granny’s Law to punish criminals who assault senior citizens, the Senior Bill of Rights and long term care reform. The senator made a presentation in which he updated the elder community on the state budget, ongoing legislation and community events. Among those who were on hand to share information with attendees, the Kingsborough Community College’s “My Turn Program” encouraged seniors

to take classes that could help shape a cool hobby or interesting pastime, and the Norwegian Christian Home and Health Center passed out information about its facilities for physical therapy and rehabilitation. Other tables set up at the fair offered services like Senior Citizen Rent Increase Exemption assistance and applications, legal advice, new sanitation guidelines, guidance for paying tax and water bills, and free blood pressure screenings.

HOROSCOPES

CROSSWORD

June 28-July 4, 2018

♋ CANCER  Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, it is important to support othersÕ goals and the steps they take to achieve them, even if you do not necessarily agree with their formula for success.

♌ LEO  Jul 23/Aug 23 Happiness has less to do with what is happening in the world and more with your own perceptions, Leo. Keep this in mind as you move forward in life.

♍ VIRGO  Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, challenges at work may be tiring you out. People may seem like they are all over the map instead of working together. Try to get everyone going in the same direction. LIBRA Ð Sept 23/Oct 23 Avoid going too far off in your own direction this week, Libra. Before making any rash decisions, take some time to ask questions and get answers. ♎ LIBRA  Sept 23/Oct 23 People often see you as even-keeled, Libra. But tempers may flare this week if you don’t get your way. Others should watch when you’re fired up.

♏ SCORPIO  Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, if something doesnÕt initially work to your liking, donÕt be shy about giving it another go. The challenges ahead will be worth it when you ultimately succeed. SAGITTARIUS Ð Nov 23/Dec 21 Your creativity and emotions are linked this week, Sagittarius. Pour your heart and efforts into a special project that reflects just how you are feeling.

♐ SAGITTARIUS  Nov 23/Dec 21 You do not have an argumentative nature, Sagittarius. So when you’re bothered, it is probably for a good reason. Don’t come out ready for a fight; instead, focus on mediating. ♑ CAPRICORN  Dec 22/Jan 20 Nothing in a current relationship is unfolding as you had expected, Capricorn. ThatÕs alright. This sense of adventure that keeps you guessing is a welcome change. ♒ AQUARIUS  Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, working closely with others is one of your strong points. Disagreements on how to approach different projects can be tricky to navigate, but youÕre up to the task. ♓ PISCES  Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, this week there may be little separation between your career and personal life. If that works for you, forget the naysayers.

Society of Old Brooklynites celebrates its 138th anniversary BY JOHN ALEXANDER JALEXANDER@BROOKLYNEAGLE.COM

he Society of Old Brooklynites (SOB) has a long and distinguished history dating back to when James Garfield was elected president of the United States. The group has been part of the fabric of this borough for 138 years and recently celebrated that anniversary with a luncheon on Sunday, June 24 at the Bay Ridge Manor. But don’t let the acronym fool you — SOB is one of Brooklyn’s oldest and most revered organizations. The venerable boroughwide civic group dates back to 1880, when Brooklyn was an independent city and the third largest in the nation. The club’s first president was John Ward Hunter, the 17th elected mayor of the City of Brooklyn. Current SOB officers are President George Broadhead, First Vice President Ted General, Second Vice President Sherman Silverman and Secretary Ellen Haywood. Broadhead is the 49th elected president of SOB. He is among a long list of notable Brooklynites who have served at the helm of the society. They have included former Brooklyn mayors, members of Congress and the State Senate, military leaders, banking and business executives, attorneys, professors, newspaper publishers and editors. At this year’s celebration State Sen. Marty Golden administered the oath of office to Broadhead, who was recently elected to his third term. Broadhead was born in Park Slope and grew up in Gerritsen Beach. After graduating from high school, he enlisted in the Marines and served in Korea after which he was awarded the Silver Star for gallantry in action and the Purple Heart.

SOB member studies newspaper clippings about the history of the organization. While attending St. John’s University in Brooklyn he became editor of the college’s literary magazine Epitome. His impressive resume includes a stint as southern manager at Billboard Magazine in Nashville and as a staff member at Newhouse Newspapers. Broadhead played a major role in the centennial ceremony at the Prison Ship Martyrs monument and is a member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and Disabled American Veterans. Broadhead recalled how he became a member of the society. “Until I received a call from the late Margaret Skinner in 2008, I thought I knew every inch of Brooklyn,” Broadhead said. “Mrs. Skinner was the first

woman elected president of the Society of Old Brooklynites, and she told me about the scheduled ceremony at Fort Greene Park to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Prison Ship Martyrs Monument. They needed a marching band, and a ‘color guard’ for the ceremony which was a week away.” Broadhead was able to help them and soon after became a lifetime member of the organization. The Brooklynites do what they do for the borough because they hold dear everything that pertains to the history and culture of Brooklyn. They devote their time and energy to making sure that Brooklyn’s past is not only remembered but also

cherished and celebrated. The society undertakes various projects to keep Brooklyn’s history alive. “Our most meaningful annual signature event is the memorial tribute to the Prison Ship Martyrs from the American Revolution,” General said. “In a crypt under the 149-foot towering monument in Fort Greene Park are the actual remains of 11,500 sometimes forgotten patriots.” General explained that the monument was erected in 1908 with a large delegation of SOBs in attendance. “Funds for the Stanford White-designed monument were lobbied for by the society from the federal, state and municipal governments, and included money raised by the society and the Fort Greene chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR). There is a large plaque attached to the monument from the society,” General added. On Saturday, Aug. 25, SOB will be hosting the 110th annual memorial tribute to the Prison Ship Martyrs, America’s first Prisoners of War, during events marking the 242nd anniversary of the Battle of Brooklyn. It is the largest American Revolution burial site in the nation. Among the more prominent members of the society have been Columbia University President Seth Low, pioneering baseball journalist and author Henry Chadwick, and poet and one-time Eagle editor Walt Whitman. General is quick to point out that the society is always happy to welcome new members. “I frequently try to drive home the point that while we're called the Society of Old Brooklynites, it's somewhat of a misnomer because you don't have to be considered ‘old’ to join. Any citizen who was born, raised or worked in Brooklyn for at least 25 years is eligible for membership."

Seniors Demand State Senate Action on Speed Cameras BY PAULA KATINAS PAULA@BROOKLYNEAGLE.COM

wo women who lost loved ones in accidents came to the Lodge Senior Center in Bensonhurst on Wednesday, June 27 to demand that the State Senate pass legislation allowing the city to install hundreds of speed cameras in school zones. Joan Dean, a member of the grassroots organization Families for Safe Streets, lost her 13-year-old grandson, Sammy Cohen Eckstein, five years ago. Young Sammy was just two weeks away from his bar mitzvah when he was struck and killed by a speeding driver on Prospect Park West in 2013. Hindy Schachter’s 75-year-old husband Irving was killed while training in Central Park for the New York City Marathon in 2014. A speeding bicyclist ran him over.

New bank branch debuts in Cobble Hill BY ANDY KATZ

irst National Bank of Long Island celebrated the grand opening of its second branch in Brooklyn—and first in Cobble Hill—with a ribbon cutting and cake at the newly refurbished Smith Street storefront on June 23. “It’s a big responsibility to give back to the community,” explained First National President and CEO Michael Vittorio after cutting a red ribbon to open the new branch office formally. “This is also a homecoming for me — I was born here in Brooklyn. I grew up in Bedford-Stuyvesant. My grandparents, my parents — we all lived there.” Asked had it changed much since his day, Vittorio smiled. “It has, yes,” he said. “And it hasn’t. It’s just a great community, with esprit de corps — the restaurants, the stores, the coffee shops and just great people — just a wonderful, wonderful place to live.” “This is an area we wanted to be in,” explained Executive Vice President Rick Perro. “There is a mix of small business and professionals here, so

Gowanus "Parties to Protect" against gun violence BY MEAGHAN MCGOLDRICK MMCGOLDRICK@BROOKLYNREPORTER.COM

arlier this month, more than 200 people partied in the name of gun reform in Gowanus, raising more than $7,000 for Moms Demand Action. On Saturday, June 16, Littlefield, 635 Sackett Street, played host to a very special “Party to Protect Our Lives,” a multi-faceted benefit concert which included on-site flash tattoos, live musical, comedic and burlesque performances and raffles. “Party to Protect” – a grassroots organization founded by now-California-based Sarah Hanson whose mission is to party to raise money for positive causes that need promotion and protection – has raised thousands of dollars for organizations like Planned Parenthood and Earthjustice, an environmental conservation organization based in San Francisco. Now it adds Moms Demand Violence, a division of Everytown for Gun Safety, to its list of beneficiaries. “We had such great performers, great tattoo artists, great drink specials, a great venue, great raffle prizes, so I knew people would show

up. However, I couldn't have dreamed how passionately committed to the cause the whole crowd was,” said Sunset Park resident Bobby Hankinson, a local entertainer who took the reins from an out-of-town Hanson, and along with a team of friends, helped organized the group’s third “Party.” “When Tia Christensen, a survivor of the Las Vegas massacre, addressed the crowd, you could hear a pin drop; that's how captivated the audience was,” he said. “These people weren't just there for a good time — though, they definitely got one — they were there because they believe in this cause.” The issue of gun violence, Hankinson told this paper previously, is one that knows no bounds. “It affects people of color, it’s a huge women’s issue, a huge LGBT issue and things like suicide, mental health, all of these things go hand in hand with gun violence,” Hankinson said. “It seems like such a common sense issue and it’s just so frustrating that nothing’s been done by now.” Others in the room shared in his frustration – as did the party’s performers. Among them were FIELDED, Crazy Pills, Elliot & the Ghost, and

Fontbonne Coach inducted to Girls’ Hall of Fame BY JIM DOLAN

very two years the board of the Girls’ Catholic High School Athletic Association (GCHSAA) chooses from a slate of nominees for their Hall of Fame. Each school submits nominees from selected athletes, coaches, administrators and officials for their athletic contributions. Along with ten other nominees, this year Fontbonne’s JV Basketball Head Coach Bob Atanasio made the cut for the GCHSAA Hall of Fame. “I can’t think of anyone more deserving for this recognition,” said Fontbonne Athletic Director Romeo Petric. “He wears his heart on his sleeve and has given so much over the years.” Born and bred in Bay Ridge, Atanasio attended Our Lady of Angels School and went on to Brooklyn Prep earning an academic scholarship to attend the University of Scranton where he played basketball for three years. For his senior year, Atanasio returned to Brooklyn to finish his degree at St. Francis College. After graduation Atanasio began to work in pharmaceutical sales, and in 1993 he made a career change to education. In 1994 Atanasio started teaching

2001. In addition to teaching at St. Saviour, Atanasio took over the position of Athletic Director and coached the girls’ Varsity Basketball Team for six seasons. As the Varsity Head Coach, Atanasio went to the finals three

times and won the Brooklyn-Queens GSCHSAA Championship two years in a row in 2007 and 2008. After his retirement from St. Saviour in 2014, Atanasio found that he still had the itch to coach and was welcomed to Fontbonne as an Assistant Varsity Basketball Coach. In 2017 Atanasio took over the Head Coach position of the Fontbonne JV Basketball Team that he brought to a second place regular season finish and an appearance in this year’s 2018 finals. Atanasio’s work with the JV did not go unnoticed by the GCHSAA and his efforts were rewarded at the end of this season’s playoffs. After Fontbonne’s loss to an undefeated McClancy team in the JV finals, Atanasio was pleasantly surprised at the end of the game when his name was announced as the 2018 Brooklyn-Queens GCHSAA JV Coach of the Year Award for his leadership and sportsmanship this season. On his induction to the Hall of Fame, Atanasio stated, “I’m very thankful for the honor, but I had the help of a lot of people along the way to earn this honor. Fontbonne gave me a chance to coach basketball again and I am very grateful for that.”

Fonzie returns for Cyclones’ first place start BY JIM DOLAN

econd year Cyclone Manager Edgardo Alfonzo returned to Brooklyn after missing the Cyclones’ 2018 opening weekend to attend his induction ceremony at the Latin American Hall of Fame in the Dominican Republic. Upon his return, Fonzie was pleased to see his team on a first place start by beating the Staten Island Yankees two out of three games under the interim guidance of Bench Coach Manager Rich Donnelly. “When they called me I was really shocked,” said Alfonzo, who was an All Star and the mainstay of the Mets’ infield during the decade of the 1990s. “When you play you just worry about doing good, not what you’ll do after retirement.” Representing Venezuela, Fonzie joined four other Latin players for the induction weekend: Jorge Posada (Yankees) from Puerto Rico, Vladimir Guerrero (Expos) from the Dominican Republic, Tony Taylor (Phillies) from Cuba and Vicente Romo from Mexico. Commenting on the team’s direction, Alfonzo stated that, different from last season, offensively the club appears to have multiple strong hitters and a number of good starting pitchers to contend this season.

Over the first six games of the season as an early June pickup from the independent Frontier League, Jose Brizuela has emerged as the team’s top hitter, batting .444 along with Jose Miguel Medina at .429 for the Cyclones’ opening season home stand. Although overshadowed by teammate Kendall

Coleman’s grand slam on Brooklyn’s opening day of the season at MCU Park, Brizuela was actually the hitting star of that game, going three for three, belting two triples and a double to score three runs for the 7-0 shutout win over Staten Island. In that same game, some of the good starting pitching that Fonzie talked about was on display as returning Cyclone Briam Campusano threw six scoreless innings along with two walks and three strikeouts. “Our starting pitching has been key for us so far this season,” maintained Alfonzo, who also stated that he would begin to stretch out his starters to 75 to 85 pitches a game. Over the next three games at home with Hudson Valley, Brizuela again figured offensively, going two for four in a 9-7 win, and two for three with a home run in a 7-5 win. Even for the next game, in a losing effort for the Cyclones, Brizuela still hit his second home run of the season to put Brooklyn ahead 6-5 in the sixth inning in an 8-7 10-inning loss to the Renegades. “I like his approach,” stated Fonzie. “He’s going to be a role model for the rest of the guys,” stated the manager of his fellow Venezuelan who originally started out in the Oakland Athletics’ minor league system. “If we continue to play like this, it’s going to be fun this season.”

Focus on Bay Ridge By Charles F. Otey

NY Building Congress Head Scissura Calls for ‘Burying Gowanus’ & Building Tunnel

Well-Developed Plan for Razing Rotting Expressway Once Again Takes Center Stage

Maybe it’s a city infrastructure dream — especially for those of us who have cursed, avoided and endured the elevated Gowanus Expressway for decades — or just fate. Call it what you will, but since Bay Ridge’s favorite son Carlo Scissura has ascended to the presidency of the powerful New York Building Congress, there is again a good chance that this rusting nightmare will be replaced by a tunnel. Scissura, who just bought a new home in Bay Ridge, served as chief deputy to Borough President Marty Markowitz, then headed the now dynamic Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce for five years before taking the very vital job of heading the Building Congress, with hundreds of clients whose job it is to build a new New York. Scissura is a lifelong resident of Bay Ridge and knows from daily misfortune the hardship that the Gowanus inflicts on those who have to use it to get to and through Downtown Brooklyn. The underground Gowanus Tunnel, which has been in the works for two decades, has received a lot of critical support over the last 20 years or so, receiving the strong backing of the Regional Plan Association (RPA), Transportation Alter-

required (1) the razing of the entire Gowanus and (2) reconstruction of a virtual replica of the civic and health hazard. The tunnel would free hundreds of acres of taxable prime real estate that has long been held captive underneath a virtual environmental prison that endangers the lives of those who travel on it as well as the tens of thousands working and living within its polluting shadow. The Gowanus Coalition, which involved leaders and elected officials from the community of Bay Ridge (where the prestigious Bay Ridge Community Council loaned its important backing to the tunnel) all the way through Brooklyn Heights (where the concept was hailed by local leaders), experienced notable success when Jo Anne Simon — now an assemblymember — took the reins. Simon worked alongside Appleton, Carroll Gardens civic leader Buddy Scotto, attorney Ben Meskin, UPROSE’S Elizabeth Yeampierre, Tony and Renee Giordano and various Bay Ridgeites, including this writer (for the first several years), Anthony Ceretti and Bob Cassara. U.S. Rep. Nydia Velázquez was a strong supporter, as was U.S. Rep. Jarrold Nadler — once he was assured, by this

writer and others, that the Gowanus Tunnel could only enhance his longstanding and sensible proposal for a cross-harbor tunnel.

Gowanus: Elevated Relic Ruining Our Neighborhoods The Gowanus Tunnel (let’s call it the Eileen Dugan Tunnel) would create thousands of jobs in the process of eliminating the elevated relic that has hung over and damaged the lives of all who live nearby for decades. An early report of the newly energized Gowanus Tunnel initiative came recently in Crain’s New York Business article by Joe Anuta, which we liberally quote from as follows: “A group of Brooklynites [the Gowanus Expressway Coalition] who came close to securing a $10 billion infrastructure project by suing the Federal Highway Administration in the late ’90s is quietly reuniting. Their plan is to revive a proposal they say will transform the southwest corner of the borough by burying 6 miles of the Gowanus Expressway, a widely reviled stretch of the BQE that runs from the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel to the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge. “Backers of the plan argue that the time is ripe to fix this notorious traffic bottleneck, reduce pollution and knit together waterfront neighborhoods isolated for decades by the aging highway. The federal government appears willing to dole out infrastructure cash, and advances in the construction industry have made boring a tunnel beneath Red Hook, Sunset Park and Bay Ridge even more feasible than the last time it was proposed. Plus, elected state officials looking to grab their share of those federal dollars might be more amenable to such an undertaking. “While government officials are planning crucial transit projects such as the new rail tunnel beneath the Hudson River and the next phase of the Second Avenue subway, lawmakers are not thinking seriously about other grand projects. Carlo Scissura, the new head of the New York Building Congress, says these officials need to start working further ahead, laying the groundwork now for the next wave of big infrastructure improvements even though they won't be shovel-ready until long after their terms in office have expired.”
