‘No more tears’: Brooklyn vigil mourns mass shootings distant and at home

The PHOENIX Hundreds of people gathered at a vigil Monday night at Grand Army Plaza, where local and congressional leaders spoke out in anger and pain against a surging epidemic of gun violence across the nation, and the apparent reluctance of the Trump administration to confront it.

The vigil came on the heels of a recent series of mass shootings— in El Paso, Tex.; Dayton, Ohio; Gilroy, Calif.; here in Brownsville; and the latest, early Monday, in Crown Heights, in which four people were injured.

Between the triumphal Grand Army Plaza arch and the nearby entrance to Prospect Park, a podium stood, surrounded by pairs of shoes filled with lit candles — each representing a life lost to gun violence.

Public Advocate Jumaane Williams asked everyone who had lost a family member to gun violence to raise their hand. “I want people to see who we’re talking about here today,” he said.

Hands went up all throughout the crowd.

“I can’t cry no more,” shouted one woman with her hand raised. “I don’t have no more tears left.”

‘No more tears’: Brooklyn vigil mourns mass shootings distant and at home Continued from page 1 As of Tuesday morning, there have been 253 mass shootings in the U.S. so far in 2019, according to the Gun Violence Archive, which defines a mass shooting as an incident in which at least four people are shot, excluding the shooter.

“More people keep dying for absolutely no reason because this country loves guns,” Williams told the crowd. “Not just some guns — all of the goddamn guns they want in their hands — and they’re killing people.”

While part of the focus of the vigil was a condemnation of the president’s attitude toward gun violence across the country, many local representatives homed in on the recent shootings in Brooklyn.

Referring to the Brownsville shooting that killed one and injured 11, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams decried what he said was a different reaction from the media and the public when gun violence happens in communities of color.

“If the shooting in Brownsville would have happened near Park Avenue and not Park Place, we would have had a different response,” Adams said.

Mayor Bill de Blasio at first declined to use the term “mass shooting” in reference to Brownsville, though he later changed his mind.

Williams, too, spoke of the national tendency to write off mass shootings in non-white cities and areas. “You have to mention Crown Heights and Brownsville and Detroit and Cleveland,” he said. “Because what you’re not going to do is pass laws dealing with the mass violence … and leave these families out.”

Those on the congressional level urged the crowd to demonstrate by marching in Washington, D.C., to demand change on the national level.

“It’s not good enough to call it terrorism out here in the public,” U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said of the mass shootings.

“We need to call it terrorism in the statute.”

Guest Editorial The ‘warspeak’ permeating everyday language puts us all in the trenches

By Robert Myers The Conversation

In a manifesto posted online shortly before he went on to mas-sacre 22 people at an El Paso Walmart, Patrick Crusius cited the “invasion” of Texas by Hispanics. In doing so, he echoed Presi-dent Trump’s rhetoric of an illegal immigrant “invasion.”

Think about what this word choice communicates: It signals an enemy that must be beaten back, repelled and vanquished.

Yet this sort of language — what I call “warspeak” — has relentlessly crept into most aspects of American life and public discourse.

After the Columbine shooting, I started writing about how “gunspeak” — the way everyday turns of phrase, from “bite the bullet” and “sweating bullets,” to “trigger warnings” and “pulling the trigger” — reflected a society obsessed with guns.

But warspeak’s tentacles extend much further. Words and phrases derived from war imagery crop up in advertisements, headlines and sports coverage. They’ve inspired an entire lexicon deployed on social media and in politics.

The intent might be as benign as the creative use of language.

But I wonder if it communicates larger truths about American violence and polarization.

The political battlefield For decades, America has been fighting metaphorical wars — wars on heart disease, drugs, smoking, cancer, poverty, advertising and illiteracy.

Then there are the culture wars, which have intensified recently to include wars on Christmas, abortion, bathrooms, cops and women. These are different: They involve people on two sides of a polarizing issue.

War targets an enemy — someone or something to be defeated, using whatever means necessary. It’s one thing when you’re at war with a disease. It’s quite another when you’re at war with a group of people on the other side of a political issue.

The political arena seems to have become especially fertile ground for warspeak.

Otherwise boring legislative machinations have been energized with the drama of a life-or-death struggle. The Republican-controlled Senate uses a “nuclear option” to confirm judges by a simple majority of 51 votes rather than the older standard of 60 votes. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s ability to speed along the appointment of conservative judges constitutes the latest volley in a “judicial arms race.”

Elections deploy the language of military campaigns. Republican donors and lawmakers warned Trump of a potential bloodbath before the 2018 midterm elections. Meanwhile, Democrats running for president strategize in their campaign “war rooms” for ways to build up “war chests” that will leave them with enough funds to compete in the “battleground states.”

The political media reinforces it all. In its coverage of the July primary debates, The New York Times wrote that the moderates were “throwing firebombs” at the progressives. Cory Booker, the “happy warrior,” sparred with former Vice President Joe Biden who “took incoming fire” all night, but “shot back” and survived, even as moderator Don Lemon “threw a generational warfare bomb.”

Our semantic arsenals Then there are the less obvious ways warspeak has become part of everyday speech.

Baseball players mash bombs while basketball players drain three-point bombs. Social media is replete with photobombs and tweet bombs, and there are so many bombshells on cable news, it’s a miracle your TV hasn’t exploded.

Everything has been “weaponized.” According to Google’s Ngram Viewer, the use of the word in print has increased by more than a factor of 10 between 1980 and 2008.

You might have seen it applied to race, feminism, children, immigrants, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, high-er education, free speech and songs.

But did you know that tennis serves, laughter, paperwork and Midwestern niceness can also, apparently, be weaponized?

Then there are the warriors in our midst — the weekend war-riors, gridiron warriors, keyboard warriors and spiritual warriors — while the country’s future software engineers sign up for cod-ing boot camps to learn their trade.

We’re all in the trenches, and most of us don’t even know it.

Why warspeak matters Semantic wars, like all wars, are costly. But the role of warspeak in today’s society isn’t as easily quantified as a military budget or body count.

Nonetheless, I believe warspeak matters for three reasons.

First, it degrades our ability to engage with one another about important issues. Law professors Oren Gross and Fionnuala Aolain have written about how the framing of issues as a “war” can “significantly shape choices.” There is an urgency that’s communicated. Instantaneous action is required. Thought and reflection fall by the wayside.

Second, in the context of politics, warspeak seems to be connected to violent political attitudes. In 2011, researchers at the University of Michigan found that young adults exposed to political rhetoric charged with warspeak were more likely to endorse political violence.

Finally, if everything from weather to sports is charged with violent imagery, perceptions and emotions become needlessly

distorted. Political carnage and carnage in the classroom, weaponized songs and weapons of war, snipers on the hockey rink and mass shooters — all blur together across our cognitive maps.

There’s a reason why writers, talking heads and politicians deploy warspeak: It commands people’s attention in an increasingly frenzied and fractured media environment.

I wonder, however, if it contributes to political polarization — what Pew Research describes as the “defining feature of American politics today.” And I wonder if it’s one reason why, according to Gallup, Americans’ stress, worry and anger increased in 2018, to the highest point in a dozen years.

One thing is clear: Americans no longer need to be enlisted in the Army to suffer from battle fatigue or be shell-shocked by the latest mass shooting.

News Around the Boro STROKES TO PLAY BARCLAYS ON NEW YEAR’S EVE

DOWNTOWN BROOKLYN — The Strokes, a well-known indie rock band, have announced a New York Eve concert at Barclays Center. The band was scheduled to play this year’s Governors Ball on Randall’s Island, but its set was canceled due to severe weather. Fans who had tickets to see the band there are getting earlier access to buy tickets for the New Year’s Eve show. 

MISSING BROOKLYN BOY FOUND

BROWNSVILLE HIT-RUN DRIVER SOUGHT

BROWNSVILLE — Police are seeking the hit-and-run driver who struck a 66-year-old woman in a crosswalk on Monday morning, according to CBS New York. The woman was crossing the intersection of Belmont and Rockaway avenues in Brownsville when she was hit by a driver who didn’t stop. She was taken to Brookdale Hospital, where she remained in critical condition as of press time. Many residents say that traffic lights are needed at the intersection, which is heavily traveled by cars, buses and trucks. Police are still seeking the burgundy SUV that fled the scene. 

DAY CARE EMPLOYEES CHARGED IN GIRL’S DISAPPEARANCE

GRAVESEND — After a 4-year-old girl who was found wandering alone in Gravesend was reunited with her family, day care driver Anatoly Elkin and matron Galma Zabamaya of the Bim Bam’s Playhouse day care center were charged with failing to exercise control of a minor, according to CBS New York.

The girl had fallen asleep in the back seat, and Elkin apparently parked the car near his home after his route was finished.

Police said. The girl got out of the van and wandered around before she was found walking around 27th Avenue and Shore Parkway on Monday morning. 

10,000 JOBS AT NAVY YARD

BROOKLYN NAVY YARD — The Brooklyn Navy Yard has surpassed 10,000 jobs for the first time since the city took control of the former U.S. Navy campus in 1966, according to amNewYork. At its peak during World War II, the Navy Yard employed 70,000 workers, many of them in shipbuilding-related jobs. The city reopened the Navy Yard as an industrial incubator in 1969. “It was in the 2000s when the city started investing pretty significant amounts of money in the basic infrastructure that created the conditions that we have today where private companies can and want to establish themselves at the yard,” said David Ehrenberg, head of the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corp. 

BED-STUY, BAY RIDGE, PARK SLOPE HOMES FEATURED ON BROWNSTONER

BOROUGHWIDE — The most popular listings on Brownstoner this week include a renovated wood-frame house in Bedford-Stuyvesant, a brick row house in Bay Ridge and a small co-op in Park Slope. The wood-frame house, at 47 Chauncey St., was built between 1867 and 1870 as a single-family home.

Its porch is one of the three oldest in the Stuyvesant Heights Historic District. The Bay Ridge row house, at 574 76th St., is located near the new Bay Ridge Parkway-Doctors’ Row Historic District. And the Park Slope co-op, at 305 Eighth Ave., is only two rooms but, according to Brownstoner, “has some well-designed aspects to recommend it.” 

STUDY EXAMINES WHY LOW-INCOME CHILDREN, FAMILIES MOVE OFTEN

CITYWIDE — An article on the City Lab website says low-income children “move around a lot,” whether the neighborhood they’re born in gentrifies or doesn’t gentrify. The article quotes a study conducted by researchers at New York University. Still, low-income families who leave a gentrifying neighborhood “are more likely to change boroughs or change ZIP codes” than families who leave an apartment in a non-gentrifying neighborhood. In any neighborhood, families who live in supported housing are less likely to move. In general, many factors go into why low-income families move around often. 

BROOKLYN FARMACY PROFILED

CARROLL GARDENS — News 12 Brooklyn, on its website, recently profiled Brooklyn Farmacy in Carroll Gardens.

CROWN HEIGHTS — An Amber Alert was canceled Monday night after a 1-year-old boy who had been inside a stolen SUV in Brooklyn was found safe, according to PIX11. Sincere Gilchrist, who was in a car seat in the back of the SUV when it was taken, has been reunited with his mother and father. The SUV, a white Mitsubishi, was taken at Kingston Avenue and Dean Street around 6:50 p.m., police said. The boy’s mother apparently left the SUV running while she went inside a store to buy groceries. 

NIGERIAN-AMERICANS GRAVITATE TO BECOMING ENTREPRENEURS

BED-STUY — Nigerian immigrants in New York City often become entrepreneurs, according to BK Reader, and some of the businesses they found are food- and beverage-related. A case in point is Oluwarotimi Akinnuoye, co-owner of the Bed-Vyne Corporation in Bedford-Stuyvesant. Akinnuoye and several partners founded the corporation, which has three subsidiaries, Bed-Vyne Wine, Bed-Vyne Brew and Bed-Vyne Cocktails, at separate locations in the neighborhood. Akinnuoye told BK Reader that many Nigerian immigrant parents want their children to become either lawyers, doctors or engineers, but Nigerians born in the United States “are a little different. We’re more entrepreneurial, so we believe in trying to figure it out on your own. 

EAST FLATBUSH BUILDERS USE LOOPHOLES TO AVOID PARKING SPACES

EAST FLATBUSH — Many of the developers who are building apartment houses along New York Avenue in East Flatbush are avoiding the city’s requirement to provide parking for residents by using the loophole of assigning two addresses to a single building, according to the Brooklyn Reporter. According to the city’s Zoning Resolution, residential buildings constructed on small lots are required to provide parking for at least half of the units in the building. However, if that amounts to five or fewer parking spaces, the parking requirement can be waived.

By using two numbers for each building, developers basically split the building in half — for example, splitting 15 units into two groups of eight. And half of eight is four, which, of course, is within the “five or fewer parking spaces” category. 

ADAMS, COUNCILMEMBER SUPPORT GROUP FOR JUNIOR PILOTS

FLOYD BENNETT FIELD — Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams and City Councilmember Alicka Ampry-Samuel (D-Brownsville) joined the Young Airmans Association, a nonprofit group founded by three African-American members of the NYPD who earned pilot’s licenses, to announce a major grant for United Youth Aviators, an aviation summer camp that the group started this year. The ceremony was held outside the hangar for the NYPD Aviation Unit at Floyd Bennett Field, a historic airfield in Marine Park, according to Kings County Politics. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 92 percent of America’s professional pilots and flight engineers are Caucasian. 

VIETNAMESE RESTAURANT COMING TO DUMBO

DUMBO — Em Vietnamese Restaurant, whose main location is on 86th Street in Bensonhurst, plans to open a second

location this fall at 57 Front St. in DUMBO, according to New York Eater. Among Em’s best-known dishes are beef pho, banh mi burger, mango smoothie and hu tieu Nam Vang, a noodle soup with pork, seafood broth and other ingredients, Two Trees Management, which was responsible for the revitalization of DUMBO, is behind the restaurant’s expansion, New York Eater said. 

TIMES EXPLORES BROOKLYN TAILOR SHOPS

BOROUGHWIDE — There are still tailor shops that make custom-made suits in Brooklyn, and The New York Times recently looked at some of them. One such store is that owned

by Yosel Tiefenbrun of East Williamsburg, who is both a Chabad rabbi and a tailor. Most of his clients, he says, are in their 30s, and they range from Orthodox Jews to jazz musicians. Another store is Mi Montuno in Prospect Heights, owned by Antonio Brown. “I look at myself as an artist,” said Brown. “I like to mix colors and fabrics to make one-of-a-kind garments. Once I make a design, I don’t do it again.” 

FREEK’S MILL IN GOWANUS SHUTTERED

GOWANUS — Though Freek’s Mill was a Gowanus favorite, the restaurant closed its doors last week, citing staffing issues.

The eatery at 285 Nevins St. lost its wine director, general manager and two chefs since opening in 2016. Owner J.T. Stewart, who also runs a construction company full time, says he’s unable to continue on his own, Eater reported. Since its opening, Freek’s Mill’s farm-focused menu won rave-reviews from critics and a two-star review from the Times. 

THE FRANKS TO OPEN PIZZERIA

CARROLL GARDENS — The Franks of Brooklyn and Manhattan restaurant fame are adding a pizzeria to their culinary empire next month. F & F Pizzeria plans to open in a space between Frankies 457 Spuntino and Franks Wine Bar on Court Street in Carroll Gardens, according to The New York Times.

Since pizza is not their area of expertise, they are working with baker Chad Robertson, who will be responsible for the dough, and Chris Bianco, of Pizza Bianco in Phoenix. “Everybody is a pizza expert in Brooklyn. We want to do something that is sustainable, delicious, healthy,” said Frank Falcinelli, one of the two Franks, along with Frank Castronovo. 

MINI-POLICE STATION IN HASIDIC WILLIAMSBURG

WILLIAMSBURG — In a traffic island on Lee Avenue in the heart of Hasidic Williamsburg stands a tiny, square-shaped building with a sign saying “Police.” According to Untapped City, the NYPD no longer uses this structure, but in the 1980s it was an official NYPD watch post. The station was established by the local community to have a police presence on the Sabbath, when Orthodox Jews cannot use phones. If there was a problem, community members could walk over to the building and speak to the officer on duty. While the NYPD no longer uses the one-person police station, it may still be used by the Hasidic community for other purposes, since the Untapped Cities author recently saw the lights on at night.

“Peter Pan the Musical” is ready to take flight

BY JOHN ALEXANDER JALEXANDER@BROOKLYNEAGLE. COM

Peter Pan, the boy who didn’t want to grow up, is ready to charm you in a brand new production from Narrows Community Theater’s summer youth program. The show opens Friday, Aug. 16 and will run for two consecutive weekends.

“Peter Pan” is Scottish novelist and playwright J. M. Barrie’s most famous work.

He wrote it in the form of a 1904 play and a 1911 novel.

Both versions tell the story of Peter Pan, a mischievous yet innocent little boy who can fly, and has many adventures on the island of Neverland that is inhabited by mermaids, fairies, Native Americans and pirates.

The Peter Pan stories also involve the characters Wendy Darling and her two brothers, Peter’s fairy Tinker Bell, the Lost Boys and the pirate Captain Hook. The play and novel were inspired by Barrie’s friendship with the Llewelyn Davies family. Barrie continued to revise the play for years after its debut until publication

Cast of “Peter Pan the Musical.” of the play script in 1928.

The play’s lyrics are by Carolyn Leigh with additional lyrics by Betty Comden and Adolph Green and music by Morris (Moose) Charlap. It was originally choreographed and adapted by Jerome Robbins.

The Narrows Community production is directed by Jason Santel with music direction by Payton Millet and is choreographed by Annie Ester.

“Peter Pan has always been

a character and a story towards which I’ve had an affinity,” said Santel. “The boy who won’t grow up, the girl who’s enamored with him, the pirates, the fairies, the mermaids and more. There’s something for everyone! When I joined the incredibly talented team, I knew that we would have to do something unique to make others see the magic on stage.”

Santel explained that “‘Peter Pan’ isn’t your typical youth

summer theater experience.

“It’s not just kids in oversized suits and dresses reproducing carbon copies of Broadway shows,” he explained. “Our mission has been to create our own show, one that has to be told by young performers. And Neverland is the perfect place to do that.”

He said that he was very impressed and surprised every day by the cast’s creativity and skill.

“This show would only be possible if we had a cast of ferociously talented and determined actors, musicians and dancers,” he said, “and I’m so proud to report that this is exactly who we have.

“I can guarantee that they will give you a one-of-a-kind performance when you come to see it,” he added.

Performances are at the Fort Hamilton Army Base Theater at 101st Street and Fort

Hamilton Parkway on Friday, Aug. 16 at 8 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 17 at 2 p.m., Sunday, Aug. 18 at 2 p.m.; Friday, August 23 at 8 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 24 at 2 p.m., and Sunday, Aug. 25 at 2 p.m.

Photo ID is required and tickets are $25 for adults, $20, seniors and students under 21; and $15, children under 12.

A pilgrimage to Walt Whitman’s Clinton Hill home

By Lore Croghan brooklyneagle.com

Preservation advocates are using the co-naming of a Clinton Hill street as Walt Whitman Way as an occasion to spotlight their campaign for city landmark designation for the poet’s home, which stands nearby.

“This humble house is the birthplace of our cultural Declaration of Independence,” New York University Professor Karen Karbiener, who’s the president of the Walt Whitman Initiative, told INBrooklyn.

After the City Council’s July 23 vote to put Whitman’s name on the corner of Ryerson Street and DeKalb Avenue, she led a pilgrimage to Whitman’s house at 99 Ryerson St. for her Columbia University summer students.

Whitmanites call it Leaves of Grass House because the poet and his family lived there in 1855, when he published the first version of this now-famous poetry collection.

“You guys are about to see the mother lode,” Karbiener told her students on Thursday as they stood up the street from the 1850s wood-frame Italianate home, which is covered with aluminum siding.

“He became a poet in this house,” she said. “For many reasons, we would like to make sure it stays here.”

Karbiener said a big residential development on the block where Leaves of Grass House is located is a reminder that “these houses can come down.”

When she led her students to 99 Ryerson St., she made everybody stay on the sidewalk on the opposite side of the street from it. She didn’t want to upset the house’s residents, who don’t like to have people stand right outside the property.

From a polite distance, the students scrutinized 99 Ryerson St.

“It looks like any other house. It’s not ostentatious,” said Columbia undergrad Noah Kulick. “Inside, all this creativity emerged from nowhere.”

Whitman, who’s widely considered to be one of America’s greatest poets, was an editor of the Brooklyn Eagle in the 1840s.

The Ryerson Street house is one of 30-plus places in Brooklyn and Manhattan where he lived. It’s the only one that’s still standing.

The Coalition to Save Walt Whitman’s house is campaigning to get the property landmarked this year because it’s the bicentennial of his birthday — and the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Inn Riots, which launched America’s gay civil rights movement.

Whitman’s candidly sensual poems made him “iconic in the United States and Europe as one of the first people to openly express the concept of men loving men,” according to a posting on the NYC LGBT Historic Sites Project’s website.

His Clinton Hill house is one of the oldest buildings in the city that’s associated with a person who would now be considered LGBTQ+, the website says.

Both the Walt Whitman Initiative and the NYC LGBT Historic Sites Project are members of the Coalition to Save Walt Whitman’s House, along with a team of preservation experts.

A look inside the Prison Ship Martyrs Monument The students’ pilgrimage to 99 Ryerson St. started on the corner of DeKalb Avenue and traffic-heavy Flatbush Avenue Extension.

“Whitman’s Brooklyn had some of the energy we feel now,” Karbiener told them.

The group made two stops before heading to Leaves of Grass House.

First, they walked down DeKalb Avenue to the Brooklyn Hospital Center, which opened as Brooklyn City Hospital in 1845. Whitman, who famously worked as a male nurse during the Civil War, was a volunteer at the hospital in the late 1850s.

Right about then, the hospital built a Pathological Hall, which had an operating theater where people could watch surgery being performed.

Up in Fort Greene Park, the Walt Whitman Project’s Greg Trupiano talks about the Revolutionary War.

Professor Karen Karbiener and her students stand in front of the Prison Ship Martyrs’ Monument in Fort Greene Park.

In his work in the hospital, “Walt Whitman really learned to love the body from the inside out,” Karbiener said.

Next, she led the group to the top of the hill in Fort Greene Park, which is next to the hospital.

There, Greg Trupiano, artistic director and founder of the Walt Whitman Project, talked about the thousands of Colonial patriots who died during the Revolutionary War because they were imprisoned on British ships in Wallabout Bay. A Prison Ship Martyrs Monument to honor them opened in 1908. It’s a 149-foot Doric column.

Urban Park Ranger Chris Wood took the students inside the column through a bronze door that’s normally locked up tight.

A park for shantytown residents During the students’ visit to the park, operatic tenor Daniel Noone sang the aria “La donna e mobile” from Giuseppe Verdi’s “Rigoletto,” which premiered in 1851. Whitman loved Verdi’s works.

Fort Greene Park exists because while Whitman was the Eagle’s editor, he relentlessly wrote editorials calling for its creation.

He argued that a park was needed to promote the health of the residents of the heavily populated area, including Irish immigrants who lived in a shantytown along Myrtle Avenue, the city Landmarks Preservation Commission’s designation report about the Fort Greene Historic District says.

Dillon Porter performs excerpts from “Song of Myself.”

There were dangerous outbreaks of cholera in the summertime.

The 33-acre green space was established in 1847.

‘I stop somewhere waiting for you’ Another high point of the visit to Fort Greene Park was performance artist Dillon Porter’s recitation of excerpts of “Song of Myself,” Whitman’s famous poem.

“I am the mate and companion of people, all just as immortal and fathomless as myself,” he said. “I stop somewhere waiting for you.”

Before the students left the park and headed to Whitman’s house, they walked down stone stairs to a crypt where the prison ship martyrs’ remains are entombed. Trupiano said only the descendants of the dead are allowed inside the barrel-vaulted chamber filled with caskets.

More than 5,700 people have signed a petition calling for Whitman’s Clinton Hill house to be landmarked.

Landmarks Preservation Commission staffers turned down Whitmanites’ request to have 99 Ryerson St. calendared for consideration as an individual landmark in 2017. Preservation advocates responded with a 13-page rebuttal.

Elected officials including City Councilmember Laurie Cumbo wrote a letter asking that the house be landmarked. It’s located in her district.

Everybody in New York is familiar with Barclays Center.

By now, you’ve been to a concert or a Nets basketball game at the Brooklyn arena with the distinctive oculus out front.

But unless you live or work in Prospect Heights, where Barclays Center opened in September 2012, you possibly

haven’t seen the other buildings that have been constructed in the 22-acre Atlantic Yards/ Pacific Park mega-development that the arena anchors.

One condo building and three rental-apartment buildings can now be found on the mammoth site at Flatbush and Atlantic avenues.

The project is in the news again. There’s controversy over a 105,000-square-foot field house and gym planned for the basements of two as-yet unconstructed Atlantic Yards/ Pacific Park buildings because a full-scale environmental review is not planned. Advisory group Atlantic Yards Community Development Corp. will vote on this issue later this month.

Grassroots groups such as Develop Don’t Destroy Brooklyn fought about many aspects of the Atlantic Yards project, as it was originally called.

It received government subsidies. And developer Forest City Ratner got the go-ahead from New York State’s Court of Appeals in 2009 to use eminent domain to take over neighborhood properties and incorporate them into the project site.

Currently Greenland USA, an entity largely owned by the government of Shanghai, is the principal owner of Atlantic Yards/Pacific Park. Greenland transferred development rights to the sites where the field house and gym are planned to TF Cornerstone.

It’s never too early in the day for ice cream at Van Leeuwen’s AtINBrooklyn photos by Lore Croghan lantic Yards/Pacific Park shop.

The facade is “custom-fired brick,” according to info the architecture firm provided to website ArchDaily.com. The brick is brownish-toned on the lower floors of the building. The facade on the top floors is ghostly white.

According to city Finance Department records, a couple of the highest-price condo sales in this building have been a $4.227 million transaction in December 2017 and a $3.9 million transaction in February 2018.

A CONDO BUILDING DESIGNED

BY COOKFOX ARCHITECTS Let’s start this walk at the easternmost boundary of Atlantic Yards/Pacific Park which is at the opposite side of the project from Barclays Center.

Here, on the corner of Vanderbilt Avenue and Dean Street, stands an 18-story, 278-unit condo building whose address is 550 Vanderbilt Ave. COOKFOX Architects designed it.

Eye on REAL ESTATE

Come stroll around Atlantic Yards/Pacific Park — Continued from page 12INB — When I checked the building’s website the other day, asking prices for available apartments ranged from a $1.5 million twobedroom unit to a $7.715 million four-bedroom penthouse.

One of the building’s retail tenants is Van Leeuwen Artisan Ice Cream, which does its manufacturing in Greenpoint.

EIGHT ACRES OF GREEN SPACE? NOT YET COOKFOX Architects’ description of 550 Vanderbilt Ave. on ArchDaily.com mentions “eight acres of new, publicly accessible green space that defines the site.”

If you expect to see this landscaped acreage, you will be sorely disappointed. Most of it hasn’t been built yet.

To find the public space that has been created at 550 Vanderbilt Ave., leave the ice cream shop, turn onto Dean Street and head towards Barclays Center.

At the edge of the condo building, there’s an asphalt-covered span beside a construction fence. A small stand of trees provides shade for wooden benches.

And in front of 550 Vanderbilt Ave.’s back entrance, there’s landscaping and a reflecting pool with a small waterfall.

A RENTAL BUILDING FOR HOUSEHOLD INCOMES AS HIGH AS $173,415 PER YEAR When you gaze past the construction fence behind 550 Vanderbilt Ave., the next building you can see is on the corner of Dean Street and Carlton Avenue.

This rental building is 535 Carlton Ave.

SHoP Architects also designed this 32-story, 363-apartment For three-bedroom apartments, a six-person household could have an annual income as low as $29,863 for an $817-per-month rental building, whose address is 461 Dean St. Half the apartments are affordable, and half are market-rate. rental or as high as $173,415 for a rental priced at $3,716 per The tower is composed of modular units that were constructed month, the posting shows. at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, brought to the site and stacked on top of one another.

‘SOUND SCULPTURES’ IN I was there in December 2013 when the first unit — which the THE PUBLIC SPACE project architect referred to it as “Mod One” — arrived. It was a The lower floors of 535 Carlton Ave. are clad in red pre-fab studio with a washer and dryer and wood flooring already brick. The facades on the upper floors and the center installed.

The modular apartment weighed 30,000 pounds. Spectators of the building are white.

There’s a bite-sized piece of publicly accessible cheered when a crane hoisted it into the air and workers set it in space next to a construction fence behind this building, place. too.

There are entrances to the green space on Dean Street and Carlton Avenue. Strictly speaking, much of it isn’t green.

The public space has wooden benches but no shade trees overhanging them. There’s a small grouping of trees, but there aren’t any benches beside it.

And there’s a reflecting pool — sound familiar?

Tables and chairs are set up on a blacktopped area.

When I was there the other day, the heat was so intense, it left me breathless.

There is something nifty on the asphalt-covered area — a set of outdoor musical instruments, or “sound sculptures,” as manufacturer Freenotes Harmony Park calls them.

They’re tall aluminum chimes that make lowpitched sounds like gongs when you hit them with mallets, which hang beside them.

There’s a reflecting pool in the publicly accessible green space behind 550 Vanderbilt Ave.

WORK IS UNDERWAY AT SIXTH AVENUE DEVELOPMENT SITES When you’ve seen the public space, return to Dean Street and once again walk towards Barclays Center.

In a couple of minutes, you’ll come upon a construction site with frontage on Dean Street, Sixth Avenue and Pacific Street. Its address in city Buildings Department records is 37 Sixth Ave. But architect Jonathan Marvel refers to it as 664 Pacific St. So does The Brodsky Organization, which has the development rights to the site.

Marvel Architects’ plan calls for a 26-story, 323unit apartment tower with a 100,000-square-foot public school in the base of the building, as I reported when the firm first unveiled its design.

At nearby 18 Sixth Ave. on the corner of Atlantic Avenue, The Brodsky Organization began work in the spring on an 859-unit, mixed-income rental apartment building designed by Perkins Eastman, Real Estate Weekly reported.

These handsome rowhouses stand on the corner of Vanderbilt Avenue and Dean Street across from Atlantic Yards/Pacific Park.

When you stroll down there, you will discover its address is 535 Carlton Ave. It is part of the Atlantic Yards/Pacific Park project.

COOKFOX Architects also designed this 18-story building, which has 298 apartments.

All of them are rentals, designated as affordable units for low-, moderate- and middle-income residents. This is important because when Atlantic Yards was in the planning stages, Forest City Ratner agreed to build 2,250 units of affordable housing by May 2025.

The Carlton Avenue apartments were offered through a lottery process managed by the New York City Housing Development Corp.

Income levels ranged from $20,126 per year for a studio with a rent of $548 per month to $104,775 per year for a $2,137-permonth studio, an online posting indicates.

SHOP ARCHITECTS DESIGNED THIS SIXTH AVENUE RENTAL BUILDING

There is a completed Atlantic Yards/Pacific Park building on Sixth Avenue. It is on the corner of Dean Street, right next to Barclays Center.

SHoP Architects designed this 23-story, 300-apartment rental property, whose address is 38 Sixth Ave. It looks like it’s made of giant blocks, some patterned with red and gray, some silver, others white.

All the apartments at 38 Sixth Ave. are affordable units.

A MODULAR TOWER ON FLATBUSH AVENUE A little bit further down Dean Street, you’ll find a tower with a shiny red facade. It’s on the corner of Flatbush Avenue and is surrounded on both sides by Barclays Center.

• Your kitchen sink is dirtier than your toilet seat! That is because people focus on cleaning and disinfecting the toilet more than they do on the sink. Meanwhile, E.coli thrives more in a wet and moist sink.

• Bunker down your lid! Whenever you flush your toilet, “toilet plumes” or small waste particles get sprayed into the air, which you can inhale or can attach itself on your toothbrush.

• An average mattress contains anywhere from 100,000 to 10 million dust mites. That’s it. We’re sleeping on the floor from now on. 

WORKING (JOBS WANTED, READY FOR WORK):

• Records show that the workers who built the pyramids at Giza were paid in bread and beer, about 3-4 loaves of bread and four liters of beer.

• Leonardo Da Vinci is credited with writing the first resume and Julius Caesar invented the employee referral system. 

HEALTH

• Brass door knobs automatically disinfect themselves in 8 hours.

• Laughing 100 times is equivalent to 15 minutes of exercise on a stationary bicycle.

• Hey, good lookin’! Watching yourself exercise in a mirror can make a workout go by faster and easier. 

ROOFING & PLUMBING

• Water pipes used to be made out of lead. If you don’t believe us, trust science, because the periodic table element for lead is ‘Pb’, which derives from the word plumbing, plumbing. In latin, plumbing comes from the word “plumbum”, which means ‘lead’.

• The hottest place on Earth is Death Valley, California.

This means that residents roofs heat deteriorate quickly from ultraviolet radiation, extreme temperatures, and exposure to harsh weather.

• In 2002, renovations were made to the roof of The White House to heat any water from solar rays. The water is then diverted to a hot tub and outdoor swimming pool.

Brooklyn Daily Eagle cover from Aug. 7, 1945

ON AUG. 7, 1892, the Brooklyn Daily Eagle reported, “Fall River, Mass. — The latest development in the Borden murder, relating particularly to the theory of poisoning, has given way to discussion among the people today to talk of the funerals, which took place this morning. As early as 9 o’clock the house was surrounded by a great crowd of curiosity seekers. Reporters, artists, photographers and policemen were active among them. Shortly after 10:30, Mr. Morse came from the house and talked freely with a group of reporters. He said it was a terrible thing to be suspected and shadowed as he has been, but he courts the fullest investigation and is anxious and willing to do all that he can to trace the perpetrators of the great crimes. He said Miss Lizzie Borden’s health was in about the same condition as it was last Thursday afternoon. She did not mingle with the family to any great extent.”  ON AUG. 7, 1916, the Eagle reported, “Microscopic examination of various sorts of insects that may be found in the city at this season will be made by a corps of thirty or forty naturalists to determine, if possible, if infantile paralysis is being spread by insect carriers. Health Commissioner Emerson, in announcing today that this work would be undertaken, said that the naturalists would be secured by federal health officers. Flies, mosquitoes, bugs and all kinds of winged and crawling insects will be subjected to microscopic and other tests in the hope of finding what insects, if any, are carriers of the infantile paralysis germ.”  ON AUG. 7, 1945, the Eagle reported, “Washington, (U.P.) — For good or ill, man has unlocked the incalculable power of the atom. He has entered upon the atomic age. His first use of this power — the same that energizes the sun and the stars — has been to make a bomb. It is the most terrible engine of destruction ever conceived. It may end the Japanese war soon. If the Japanese decide to fight on, it will demolish their homeland. But when the bomb’s work is done, its makers hope to convert its power to the arts of peace and to the enforcement of peace. Upon realization of this hope hangs the fate of humanity. Atomic power could remake the world; it also could destroy it. Its power to destroy has been made manifest to the Japanese … Yesterday President Truman gave the enemy another chance to accept the surrender-or-be-destroyed ultimatum of Potsdam. ‘If they do not accept our terms,’ he said, ‘they may expect a rain of ruin from the air the like of which has never been seen on this earth.’”  ON AUG. 7, 1946, the Eagle reported, “Boston (U.P.) — John F. Kennedy, handsome, blue-eyed son of the former Ambassador to Britain, revived a family tradition when he ran for nomination for Congress — and won. Though his father never held an elective post, Kennedy’s two grandfathers — former Mayor John F. Fitzgerald and the late U.S. Senator Patrick J. Kennedy — were men of winning ways, both in and out of politics. Kennedy, 29 and a Harvard graduate, decided to enter politics while lying on a hospital bed, recovering from wounds suffered as a PT boat skipper during the war. ‘It was either politics or the newspaper business,’ he said. ‘And the Kennedys always have been interested in politics. That probably tipped the scales.’ Kennedy won the Democratic nomination for U.S. Representative from the 11th Massachusetts District, and since nomination is tantamount to election, he undoubtedly will succeed 71-year-old James M. Curley in Congress.”

Brooklyn Daily Eagle cover from Aug. 8, 1945

ON AUG. 8, 1920, the Brooklyn Daily Eagle reported, “Boston — Attorney General J. Weston Allen, who is conducting an investigation of the foreign exchange business of Charles Ponzi, announced today that he had furnished transcripts of the interviews he has had with Ponzi to federal authorities both in this city and in Washington, together with all information his office has obtained. The attorney general sought another interview with Ponzi yesterday, but the head of the Securities Exchange Company failed to appear and was quoted as saying he would not again visit the State House. In commenting upon this, Mr. Allen said that he had no authority to force Ponzi to appear or to compel him to give testimony ‌ Ponzi repeated today his announced intention of starting a new business Monday under the name of the Charles Ponzi Company, through which he has declared he will establish a chain of banks and conduct a general import and export business.â€? ď‚Ťď‚Ťď‚Ť ON AUG. 8, 1945, the Eagle reported, “Guam (UP) — Tokyo conceded today that most of Hiroshima had been destroyed completely by a single American atomic bomb Monday and said blasted and blistered corpses ‘too numerous to count’ littered the ruins. ‘The impact of the bomb was so terrific that practically all living things, human and animal, were literally seared to death by the tremendous heat and pressure engendered by the blast,’ one Tokyo broadcast said. American reconnaissance photos confirmed that four and one-tenth square miles — 60 percent of the built-up area — of Hiroshima had vanished almost without trace in the world’s greatest man-made explosion. Unofficial American sources estimated Japanese dead and wounded might exceed 100,000 ‌ As Tokyo painted a fearful picture of the catastrophe, some sources saw a possibility that Japan might reconsider her rejection of the Allied demand for her surrender before she is invaded. ‘It shouldn’t take the Japanese long to think this over,’ one ranking officer said. ‘We plan to present them with bursting atoms as often as possible.’â€? ď‚Ťď‚Ťď‚Ť ON AUG. 8, 1951, the Eagle reported, “Tehran (U.P.) — Optimism ran high at the start of formal Anglo-Iranian oil talks today and Britain’s chief negotiator disclosed he already has submitted an official outline for a final settlement.

Two key Iranian negotiators expressed confidence that the dispute over Iran’s nationalization of Britain’s huge oil interests would be settled peaceably. They said Britain’s friendly attitude at a preliminary session Monday night was a good sign. At the same time, Britain’s Lord Privy Seal Richard Stokes, chief of the British delegation, said the general atmosphere both here and in the oil port of Abadan had ‘vastly improved.’ Stokes disclosed that he had presented a memorandum to Iran, containing Britain’s general ideas for settling the oil dispute. The British delegation, he said, was awaiting Iran’s reply before getting down to details. The only ominous note today came in Iran’s official demand that Britain recall and reprimand its consul at Khoramshahr, an oil town, for asking the recall of two Iranian oil officials as ‘undesirable elements.’�
