PORT-AU-PRINCE — A Family That Pulls Together: A family works together to pull in their fish net on a beach near Jacmel, Haiti, Sunday, Oct. 6. Weeks of political turmoil are hitting cities and towns outside the capital of Port-au-Prince especially hard, forcing non-government organizations to suspend aid as barricades of large rocks and burning tires cut off the flow of goods between the city and the countryside Visit brooklyneagle.com for more Our World in Photos.

LETHAL LOCKUPS — More than 370 people have died in NYC jails since 2001: Jason Echevarria died in 2012 after eating chemical detergent when Rikers Island correction officers declined to get him medical help. Carina Montes and Jose Cruz committed suicide in 2003, even though they were on suicide watch. Layleen Polanco died in June after suffering a seizure while trapped in solitary confinement.

Mayor’s Office rolls out ad campaign for new tenant laws By Alex Williamson | The PHOENIX A package of historic rental laws passed by state lawmakers in June is getting a marketing boost from Mayor Bill de Blasio, who announced a new ad campaign and website Monday to educate renters about their new rights. The State Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act of 2019 makes it harder for landlords to evict tenants, limits the size of security deposits, application fees and late rent fees, caps how much landlords can charge for building improvements and does away with “vacancy decontrol” and the “vacancy bonus” in rent-stabilized apartments. The ads will be displayed on subways, bus stops, Link kiosks, ferry terminals, newspapers and online through Dec. 15. The Mayor’s Office said that city workers will also go door-to-door to talk with renters about their rights.

“The State Legislature passed some of the most progressive rent reforms we’ve seen in decades, but if New Yorkers don’t know their rights, it will all be for nothing,” de Blasio said in a statement. The website links to a searchable database that lets renters see if their building is regulated, subsidized or rent stabilized. There’s also a portal that guides tenants through looking up their building’s rent history to determine if they’re being overcharged. Renters make up over 65 percent of New York City’s population, according to 2016 census data, a figure that’s grown roughly 5 percent, with a corresponding decline in homeownership, since the 2008 recession. Until the package of laws passed this summer, landlords were permitted a vacancy bonus for rent-regulated units, allowing them to raise the rent by up to 20 percent in between tenants.

Owners could remove unoccupied units from rent stabilization and charge market rate once the rent reached $2,774.76, which could be achieved through vacancy bonuses or hiking the rent by up to 20 percent for repairs and upgrades, or “major capital improvements.” “Rent stabilization is one of the strongest tenant protection tools we have, and the reforms out of Albany make those tools

even stronger,” said Housing Preservation and Development Commissioner Louise Carroll in a statement. Other new protections for all tenants include a rent increase notice, requiring landlords to inform tenants if they intend to raise the rent by more than 5 percent, a law that makes unlawful eviction a misdemeanor, rules making it easier to reverse evictions for non-payment and a rule

that requires city marshals to give tenants at least 14 days’ notice before carrying out an eviction warrant. The campaign was released

by the Mayor’s Office to Protect Tenants, an oversight office formed in January to preserve the city’s affordable housing and penalize law-breaking landlords.

The Brooklyn jail is falling apart, with my people inside By Robert Cornegy | Guest Editorial

For years, before running for office or representing District 36, I worked on Rikers Island in the Department of Social Services.

I remember fighting for access to the housing units and trying to get out of my office and provide direct support to people who were incarcerated. Years later, I hear the stories of the nightmares that people in detention still face in any of the 12 jails that currently exist in this city. Among the most decrepit facilities is the Brooklyn Detention Complex. Many of my constituents have experienced the inside of that place — whether they were detained or visiting loved ones inside. The impact of that trauma on generations of black and brown families in Brooklyn cannot be understated. Rikers Island and the Brooklyn jail, together with the Tombs and the Barge, are a stain on the heart of NYC — and the nation at large. It is not lost on others that New York City is home to one of the most devastatingly egregious penal systems in the United States. While there are jails and prisons across the country that must be closed, we know that these 12, with Rikers chief among them, have been a symbol of torture, trauma and extreme violence. As an elected representative of one of the most incarcerated communities in New York City, I recognize the urgency of ending mass incarceration and the massive overhaul of our pre-trial detention system that the closure of Rikers Island requires — an overhaul that advocates were able to bring into fruition in this year’s state legislative session. As a child of Brooklyn and a former service provider, I know that there is not a single facility in this city that is capable of providing access to care, social supports and programming necessary to prepare people to return home or reduce their likelihood of returning to jail or prison. As a City Council member, in 2016, I introduced legislation that legally required the city to provide access to education and social services to people awaiting trial. I worked on Rikers Island and continue to connect to others who work or are detained there now. I know firsthand how important it is to improve access to resources and improve conditions, both inside future facilities and outside, in our communities.

The Brooklyn Detention Complex on Atlantic Avenue has been standing since the 1950s — and has already been closed and reopened once, with minor renovations in 2012. Yet this summer, seven years after those renovations, my colleagues in the City Council and I were shocked to see that this jail does not contain a single air conditioning unit and does not allow detainees to control the temperature of their showers. This building, by design, has stripped my neighbors, family, friends, and past clients of their dignity and subjected them to inhumane conditions. Because this building was built for one purpose: warehousing bodies. The reality is there will be no “new” jail in Brooklyn even after the City Council approves the Uniform Land Use Review Process petition on Oct. 17, which we had to do. We have had a borough-based facility in this borough since before I was born. In approving that ULURP, we have an opportunity to pass several pieces of legislation and set us on a path to close all 12 jails and their 13,000 available beds across New York City. Due to the advocacy of survivors of Rikers Island, and my own lived experience, I have a clear set of priorities and values that are aligned with this plan to ensure the permanent closure of Rikers Island. We must shrink the system and forever limit this city’s capacity to detain and harm people. In addition to going from 12 jails to four facilities with improved conditions and proximity to people’s communities, we must also limit the number of people who can be detained to no more than 3,000. We must continue to demand permanent decarceration by supporting the implementation of the pretrial reforms that were passed this year while also pushing our legislature to do more — particularly parole reform. And we must realign our budget priorities with community needs by divesting from legal punishment systems and investing, instead, into community-based services and in the people who have been directly harmed by Rikers. The transformative, systemic change we seek to achieve in making these choices will not happen overnight. But delaying any further will only ensure the inevitable, continued existence of Rikers, the Tombs, the Brooklyn jail and the Barge. The status quo is unacceptable and a better future is within our reach. That is what I voted yes on Oct. 17. _____________________________ Councilmember Robert Cornegy represents the 36th Council District of Brooklyn.

News From Your Neighborhood NEW FORT GREENE TOWER TO HOUSE MUSIC SCHOOL

FORT GREENE — Gotham Organization, a developer, and FX Collaborative, an architect, are planning to develop a 22-story residential tower that will also house the Brooklyn Music School, according to Curbed. The project would rise next to the school’s existing building at 126 St. Felix St. in Fort Greene. It will have a neo-Romanesque design with a pattern of vertical windows and light-colored brick and limestone. The enlarged music school facility will allow for additional and more diverse programming, Curbed said. The development will have 120 new residential units, about 36 of which will be allocated for moderate-income households. Gotham bought the empty lot for $5.5. million in 2015. 

OFFICIALS JOIN PUSH FOR BAY RIDGE HATE CRIME PROBE

BAY RIDGE — City Councilmember Justin Brannan (D-Bay Ridge-Dyker Heights-Bath Beach) and fellow Bay Ridge elected officials, including U.S. Rep. Max Rose, State Sen. Andrew Gounardes and Assemblymember Mathylde Frontus, have formally asked the NYPD Hate Crime Task Force to investigate Saturday’s incident at T.J. Maxx in Bay Ridge. As the Eagle reported, a Muslim couple in the store were verbally harassed and physically assaulted by a woman who told them to “go back to your country.” “Bay Ridge is a diverse community where residents of all different faiths, races, and backgrounds live together peacefully. When an incident like this goes unpunished, it threatens the very fabric of this community and makes our constituents feel less safe in their own neighborhood,” the officials said in a joint statement. Bay Ridge is home to one of the largest Arab and Muslim communities in the city. 

ROBBERY CREW HITS STORES IN B’KLYN NABES

BOROUGHWIDE — A group of robbers has stolen more than $75,000 in jewelry, cash and electronics in Brooklyn, according to the New York Post. The most recent heist occurred at NY Jewelry in Downtown Brooklyn on Oct. 19. Surveillance video shows one of the crew pointing a pistol at an employee while a second man keeps watch and the others steal jewelry. On Oct. 5, the bandits held up La Casa de Oro in Bushwick and stole $50,000 in jewelry and $4,000 in cash, the Post reported. They also robbed a Metro PCS store in Bedford-Stuyvesant on Sept. 23 and a T-Mobile store in East Flatbush on Sept. 27. In both robberies, they forced employees into the bathroom before carrying out their heists. Their first stick-up took place at Clean City Laundry on Bushwick Avenue on Sept. 19. 

AMITY STREET IS MOST EXPENSIVE STREET IN B’KLYN

COBBLE HILL — A street in Cobble Hill is the only one in the borough that got into the top 15 of PropertyClub’s list of the city’s 50 most expensive streets, according to Patch. The three-block long street, which has a median price of about $2.5 million, landed in 11th place on the list. The next-most expensive Brooklyn corridor was India Street in Greenpoint, at No. 31. The city’s top-ranked street, Central Park South, had a median sales price of $9.8 million. Home sales at one development, The Cobble Hill House at 78 Amity St., drove the price up, Patch said. The building is on the former Long Island College Hospital campus. 

FIVE-STORY BUILDING PLANNED FOR W’BURG

WILLIAMSBURG — Permits have been filed for a five-story residential building at 222 North 8th St. in Williamsburg, according to New York YIMBY. The location, between Driggs Avenue and Roebling Street, is one block from the L train’s Bedford Avenue subway station. W Square, the development arm of WSQ Global, is listed as the owner on the application, and Marat Mutlu is listed as the architect of record. The building will have five apartments, most likely condos, according to New York YIMBY. 

BROOKLYN SHOPPER SUES WHOLE FOODS OVER SOY MILK

EAST FLATBUSH — An East Flatbush shopper upset about the flavor of her soy milk has filed a $5 million lawsuit against Whole Foods, claiming that the company’s advertisements for its own brand of soy milk is misleading customers into thinking that only real vanilla is used, according to Patch. Brooklynite Walletta Burke is one of 27 people suing food makers across the country because of vanilla “food fraud.” Burke’s attorney, Spencer Sheehan, told Patch that everything from yogurt to cookies to ice cream is mislabeled as vanilla when manufacturers really are using a substitute for vanilla beans. The ingredients list for Whole Foods’ vanilla soy milk puts natural flavors above organic vanilla extract, Patch said.

KURUCS APPEARS IN B’KLYN SUPREME COURT

DOWNTOWN BROOKLYN — Brooklyn Nets forward Rodions Kurucs appeared in Brooklyn Supreme Court in connection with his domestic violence case on Monday, according to the New York Post. The NBA star arrived in court in a dark suit and was ordered back to work on Nov. 19. Kurucs is accused of assaulting his live-in girlfriend on June 27 in their Gowanus apartment. During the argument, the Latvian-born player allegedly grabbed a knife and threatened to kill himself, sources toward the Post. Kurucs’ girlfriend was not identified by name. 

TOUR CO. HOLDS LAUNCH EVENT IN DUMBO

DUMBO — Collette, a tour operator, unveiled its tours for next year at an event in DUMBO, drawing travel agents from the tri-state area, according to Travel Pulse. The company plans to offer 165 tours next year, including 20 new ones in places ranging from Portugal to Nashville to the Greek islands. Dan Sullivan, CEO, said the company had done launch events before but wanted to be more “hip” by locating in a neighborhood like DUMBO, Travel Pulse said. The company originated in 1918, giving tours in New England and Canada. 

MAN ROBBED IN BARBERSHOP CHAIR

WILLIAMSBURG — Police are investigating an incident in which a man was robbed at gunpoint last week while getting his hair cut in Williamsburg, according to NY1 News. Surveillance video captured the scene on Oct. 14 at the barbershop at 139 Maujer St. While the victim was in the barber’s chair, a man behind him pulled out a gun and demanded cash and valuables. The victim turned over a cellphone, a credit card and $350, NY1 News reported. No arrests had been made as of press time. 

STUDIO IN ONCE-UNWANTED HEIGHTS BLDG. SELLS FOR $499K

BROOKLYN HEIGHTS — When the plain-looking co-op apartment building at 45 Grace Court was built in the mid-1960s, Brooklyn Heights preservationists unsuccessfully went to court to try and stop it. Now, however, a studio apartment there is selling for $499,000, according to Brownstoner. The unit has two sets of full-wall, built-in bookcases, a half-wall divider between the living room and sleeping area, a separate kitchen and a large walk-in closet. The kitchen has modern appliances, and the bathroom was recently renovated with tan tile walls.



EVICTION OF CANCER PATIENT POSTPONED UNTIL JANUARY

BROWNSVILLE — The city’s Housing Court has delayed an eviction against a cancer-stricken tenant at NYCHA’s Woodson Houses in Brownsville, according to Patch. The Legal Aid Society has urged NYCHA to stop attempting to evict Sanchez because he is too occupied caring for his elderly mother to take care of his eviction case. The tenant, William Sanchez, was never added to the official tenant list because his mother is too ill to go to the housing office and fill out the necessary forms, Patch reported. The court ruled that the eviction case be delayed until Jan. 28, but the Legal Aid Society wants the housing agency to drop the eviction case altogether. 

NEW COOKBOOK FOCUSES ON B’KLYN ITALIAN HERITAGE

BENSONHURST — Bensonhurst-born Daniel Paterna’s new cookbook, “Feast of the Seven Fishes: A Brooklyn Italian’s Recipes Celebrating Food and Family,” includes photos of the neighborhood and a family memoir alongside the recipes, according to the Brooklyn Reporter. Among the dishes Paterna spotlights are arancini, eggplant parmesan and torta dolce di ricotta, a cheesecake made with ricotta rather than cream cheese. The Feast of the Seven Fishes refers to a meal containing seven different seafood dishes that is customarily served on Christmas Eve. Paterna told the Home Reporter that when outsiders think of Italian American Brooklyn, they often think in stereotypes. Some people have asked him whether he knows anyone in the Mafia, while one co-worker, upon hearing his Brooklyn accent, suggested speech therapy. “I always felt we grew up in a very dignified house. My mother abhorred `The Sopranos,’” he said. 

MAN CRASHES INTO PARKED BUS AND DIES

EAST NEW YORK — A man who was arrested in August for crashing into a bus while driving a stolen Cadillac was killed Sunday night after he smashed his car into a garbage truck in East New York, according to the New York Post. Zachariah Johnson, 22, was speeding east on Cozine Avenue when he veered into the westbound lane and slammed into the parked garbage truck. A passerby pulled Johnson’s body out of his demolished Toyota Camry just as the car was beginning to catch fire, the Post said. He was taken to Brookdale University Hospital Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead. In August, he was arrested and charged with grand larceny, reckless endangerment and possession of marijuana.

Marine Park hosts party in the pumpkin patch featuring costumes, crafts and climbing By Noah Singer INBrooklyn

“Costumes, games and fall fun! What more can you ask for?” said State Sen. Andrew Gounardes, when asked about the Marine Park 34th Halloween Fall Festival. His words rang true on Saturday afternoon when the festival drew nearly 3,000 participants who came to celebrate mid-fall and the Halloween season with their families. The festival is organized annually by the Marine Park Community Association along with the New York City Dept. of Parks & Recreation. At the festival’s “pumpkin patch,” kids chose small pumpkins to decorate at nearby tables. Other attractions included face painting, balloon animals, temporary tattoos and popcorn. The festival’s costume contest awarded ribbons and gift cards to kids for their creative attire. Among the winners were a tyke in a tiny chef outfit and another clad adorably as Super Mario. True to tradition, the City Parks Foundation’s popular CityParks PuppetMobile provided free marionette shows for attendees of all ages. For older kids and adults, the NYPD contributed to the festivities by bringing in a towering rock wall. “We were proud to co-sponsor this exciting event in partnership with the Marine Park Community Association. It was a fun-filled day for the community, and especially for the children,” said Marine Park Director Margot Perron. “It was truly a collaborative effort as the Marine Park Community Association, NYPD, our Urban Park Rangers and students from the local high school rallied together to bring crafts, a climbing wall, face painting, puppets and much more to this festival.” Paul Link of the Marine Park Community Association said that this was the first year that the event was held on the Fillmore Avenue side of the park, between Madison Place and Marine Parkway. The organizers plan to keep the festival in this location for future years. “The Marine Park Fall Festival is a valued local tradition and I am glad that members of my team could be there to join in the fun,” said Gounardes, who sent representatives to the event.

Allison Lan held her pumpkin.

By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

You can walk from Boerum Hill to Brownsville on Bergen Street. What a fine stroll. There are pre-Civil War brick rowhouses, an industrial area that residents want to rezone, clusters of Romanesque Revival homes and elegant churches. You can walk this route in a single day if you aren’t an obsessive-photo taker. But I am, so I split the stroll into two successive days — and two separate stories. This is Part One. Bergen Street begins at Court Street. If you don’t live close enough to walk here, take the 2,3,4,5 or R subway to august, landmarked Brooklyn Borough Hall and stroll several blocks. Court Street is full of interesting shops — and movie theaters, which is a great thing since there aren’t as many of them in Brooklyn as old-school filmgoers would like. Be sure to come back another time and plan to stay a while. On the first block of the walk, you’ll see an eye-catching cluster of wood-frame rowhouses from 26 to 36 Bergen St. They are painted pastel colors, like Easter eggs. On the other side of the street, old brick houses alternate with new low-rise multi-family buildings.

Welcome to Bergen Street, where pre-Civil War rowhouses mingle with eye-catching institutional and commercial buildings. INBrooklyn photos by Lore Croghan

Bergen Street begins here, at the corner of Court Street. Near the intersection of Smith Street, there are upscale stores such as eyeglasses seller Warby Parker (55 Bergen St.) on the ground floors of the residential buildings. When I got to Smith Street, I was tempted to make a detour and spend the whole day there, photographing the restaurants and bars and shops.

Wood-frame houses grace the first block of Bergen Street in Boerum Hill. Instead, I stopped at Van Leeuwen Ice Cream (81 Bergen St.) which is open at breakfast time, bless their hearts. Yeah, it was early in the day. But a signboard out front mentioned seasonal flavors like pumpkin cheesecake ice cream. If caffeine is your preferred fuel for a walk, Single Origin (85 Bergen St.) will make you a cup of coffee.

HUMPHREY BOGART WAS A DESCENDANT Since we’re focusing on Bergen Street, surely you want to know where its name comes from. The Bergens were one of Brooklyn’s prominent families in the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. The clan descended from a ship’s carpenter from Bergen, Norway named Hans Hansen Bergen, who came to Dutch-controlled New Amsterdam (which is present-day lower Manhattan) in the 1630s, Leonard Benardo and Jennifer Weiss’s book “Brooklyn By Name” says. Bergen married Sara Rapalje and they moved to an estate near the present-day Brooklyn Navy Yard, a posting on the Bowery Boys Podcast’s blog says. Rapalje was the first female child born to European parents in New Netherland (a Dutch colony stretching from Albany to Delaware). Rapalje remarried after Bergen died. Her second husband was named Teunis Gysbertsen Bogaert. Beloved actor Humphrey Bogart was one of their descendants, a posting on New Netherland Research Center says.

PRE-CIVIL WAR ROWHOUSES Several blocks of Bergen Street are located within the Boerum Hill Historic District, which was designated in 1973, or the Boerum Hill Historic District Extension, which was designated in 2018 thanks to the Boerum Hill Association’s persistent advocacy. The earliest rowhouses in these landmarked areas were constructed in the late 1840s and early 1850s. Many others were built in the 1860s and 1870s. On Bergen Street, the landmarked sections of Boerum Hill start soon after you cross Smith Street and end at the intersection of Nevins Street. One of my favorite spots on this part of the walk is the sevenhouse brick row from 106 to 118 Bergen St. A developer named Joseph C. Billin constructed the Italianate-style houses in 1867, the city Landmarks Preservation Commission’s designation report about the Boerum Hill Historic District Extension says. The house in the middle of the row, 110 Bergen St., is painted a soft creamy color that makes the red-hued brick homes on either side look especially pretty. The beauty and tranquility of these blocks will soothe your brain a bit, which is helpful given all the vexations that come with living in America these days.

REAL ESTATE

HALLOWEEN DECORATIONS AND POTTED PLANTS Another eye-catching block starts at the corner of Hoyt Street, where a slim residential building at 133 Bergen St. was constructed around 1872. Next to it, there’s a row of brick houses with Italianate features from 135 to 163 Bergen St. A builder named John Monas constructed the homes between 1871 and 1873, the Boerum Hill Historic District’s designation report says. Lots of people have Halloween decorations on their stoops, which is fun to see. Though it’s October, lush foliage on the trees is mostly summer-time green. Flowers are still growing in some of the front gardens. Keep your eyes peeled for the potted plants with enormous leaves on the balconettes, stoop and front patio of 226 Bergen St. They’re fabulous. By the way, this house is part of a looong row of Italianatestyle brick homes constructed for Helen Martense in 1855, the Boerum Hill Historic District Extension’s designation report says. In the mid-19th century, the Martense family was one of the big landowners in what is now called Boerum Hill, along with the Hoyt, Nevins and Gerritsen families, the book “Brooklyn by Name” says.

THE HOUSE OF PAIN As you continue your Bergen Street stroll, you’ll pass the Veterinary Wellness Center of Boerum Hill, which is at 96 Third Ave. There are entrances on different sides of the building for cats and dogs. The vet’s website explains there are separate hospitals for felines and canines to help reduce the stress that pet patients experience during their treatment. When you get to busy Fourth Avenue, be sure to stop in the median strip for a look at Brooklyn’s best-known landmark, the Williamsburgh Savings Bank. The 512-foot tower topped with a four-sided clock looms large though it’s several blocks away at 1 Hanson Place. The neo-Romanesque building was constructed between 1927 and 1929. Architecture firm Halsey, McCormack & Helmer designed it. These days, it’s a residential condo building — but you might remember it was called the House of Pain for many years because lots of dentists were tenants when it was an office building. After you cross Fourth Avenue, you’re in Park Slope for a couple blocks. The brownstones are beautiful on the block between Fourth and Fifth avenues. At the intersections of both these avenues, you get an eyeful of the some of the high-rise apartment buildings at Atlantic Yards. That’s what community leaders, elected officials and everybody else I’ve ever met calls the 22-acre mega-development despite its name change to Pacific Park several years ago. On the Bergen Street block between Fifth Avenue and Flatbush Avenue, you’ll find a row of shops with old-fashioned storefronts. Gorilla Coffee is one of the tenants (472 Bergen St.) if you’re still in need of caffeine.

Here’s the Williamsburgh Savings Bank Clocktower seen from the intersection of Bergen Street and Fourth Avenue. INBrooklyn photos by Lore Croghan Once you’re on the far side of the avenue, you’re in Prospect Heights. One of the first things you’ll see is the NYPD’s 78th Precinct Stationhouse, with its handsome, dignified exterior. It’s on a Bergen Street corner at 65 Sixth Ave. A couple blocks of Bergen Street are located within the Prospect Heights Historic District. Most of the rowhouses and apartment buildings in this landmarked area were constructed in the second half of the 19th century or the beginning of the 20th century. Two of my favorite Bergen Street houses are in the historic district. Both of them have mansard roofs. They face each other on opposite corners of Carlton Avenue. The neo-Grec house at 560 Carlton Ave., which has a brick facade on Bergen Street and a brownstone facade on the avenue, was designed by architect Charles Werner and constructed around 1882, the Prospect Heights Historic District’s designation report says. Mary Skelly was the original owner. The mansard roof at 575 Carlton Ave. was probably added some time since the late 1980s, to what was originally an Italianate brownstone constructed between 1869 and 1880, the report notes. The side of the house that faces the avenue is resurfaced in black and the window surrounds are orange. BROWNSTONES, BIBIMBAP AND A BAKERY

A brownstone row on Bergen Street’s landmarked block between Carlton and Vanderbilt avenues has deep front lawns. The landmarked district’s boundary on Bergen Street is Vanderbilt Avenue. A four-story building that wraps around this corner and uses 638 Bergen St. as its address is especially eye-catching. It was MANSARD ROOFS IN PROSPECT HEIGHTS constructed around 1891. It has a three-story, barrel-shaped It will take you a couple minutes to cross mammoth Flatbush window bay above its front door. Daniel O’Connell designed the combination Romanesque Avenue — which by the way has lots of interesting restaurants Revival-Renaissance Revival property and was its first owner, and shops and deserves a return visit. the Prospect Heights Historic District’s designation report says. The brick and brownstone building looks like it could use a little TLC, but not to worry. Minor facade work and a gut rehab of the second, third and fourth floors are planned, city Buildings Department filings indicate. Cater-cornered to 638 Bergen St., there’s a trio of Italianate brick residential buildings with storefronts, namely 597-599-601 Vanderbilt Ave., that property owner John Doherty constructed around 1879. Chef Liz Kwon’s nouvelle Korean restaurant, which is called White Tiger, is located on the ground floor of 601 Vanderbilt Ave. Non-landmarked Prospect Heights extends for another couple blocks on Bergen Street. The neighborhood’s boundary is Washington Avenue. In a cluster of buildings at the corner of Washington Avenue, you’ll find a good spot for dessert at 740 Bergen St. It’s called the Bakery on Bergen. The shop got a makeover on an episode of the Bravo TV series “Get a Room with Carson & Thom.” This is as far as I’m walking Low-rise buildings at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and Bergen Street frame a view today. Next week, I’ll tell you about of Atlantic Yards high-rises. the rest of my Bergen Street stroll.

The eye-catching building on the corner is 638 Bergen St.

ON OCT. 23, 1960, the Brooklyn Eagle reported, “Sen. Jack Kennedy returns this week to pivotal Brooklyn in an attempt to clinch enough votes in the borough to swing New York State over to his column in the Electoral College. He will make six speeches here in strategic spots. Riding high, after what Brooklyn Democrats called a ‘tremendous visit,’ the presidential contender from Massachusetts will deliver an address at the Eastern Parkway Arena Thursday night. Kennedy spoke to an estimated 30,000 persons on a quick swing through Brooklyn. Several times during the ride through the borough’s streets, he was almost pulled from the rear of his open convertible by well-wishers. In a new development, President [Dwight] Eisenhower announced yesterday that he and Vice President [Richard] Nixon would make major campaign speeches in New York Nov. 2. Nixon had previously canceled his single scheduled appearance in the boro. Kennedy, campaigning yesterday through Missouri and Kansas, called on Nixon to abide by Eisenhower’s code of ‘face to face’ settlement of differences by agreeing to a fifth ‘Great Debate.’ Vice President Nixon, on a campaign swing in Eastern Pennsylvania, broadened his attack on Kennedy on the Cuban issue.”  ON OCT. 23, 1962, the Eagle reported, “Washington (UPI) — President Kennedy last night clamped a Naval blockade on Cuba because Soviet intermediate range missiles and other arms had turned the island into an armed camp capable of hurling destruction into the heart of America. The blockade on shipment of offensive weapons to the Fidel Castro regime was part of a seven-step program ordered by the president to meet the ‘threat to hemispheric security’ posed by the Soviet arms buildup. The president said the Naval blockade would not deny Cubans the civilian necessities of life. The buildup, the president said in a nationwide radio and television report to the people, now includes medium range ballistic missiles capable of firing nuclear warheads for more than 1,000 miles … The United States, the president said, was asking for an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council where this country will introduce a resolution calling for prompt dismantling and withdrawal of all offensive weapons in Cuba under U.N. supervision. The president said the offensive weapons would have to be removed before the quarantine could be lifted. He called on Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev ‘to halt and eliminate this clandestine, reckless and provocative threat to world peace and to stable relations between our two nations.’”  ON OCT. 24, 1945, Eagle sportswriter Tommy Holmes wrote, “The thing about the Jackie Robinson story today that strikes right out and hits you between the eyes is that the first Negro ever to be signed to a contract in organized baseball may be blocked from a bona-fide test by members of his own race. The Kansas City Monarchs, for whom Robinson played this summer, are preparing a formal protest to Commissioner Happy Chandler. They do not like the fact that our Mr. Branch Rickey signed their star ball player to a contract with the Montreal Royals, No. 1 farm club of the Dodgers. Whether the commissioner of baseball will deem it unfair practice to sign a player under contract to a club in an established Negro league remains to be seen. If he upholds the protest, it may be years before another opportunity opens up for a Negro in organized baseball again.”

Halloween is nigh: Here’s where you can see dogs in costumes By Alex Williamson Bay Ridge Eagle

Halloween brings many beloved traditions, like trick-or-treating, wild parties, upstate apple picking and entertaining friends with spooky stories. But objectively, the very best Halloween tradition is watching dogs prance around in costumes. Here are some spots where you can do that. Fort Greene — Great PUPkin Dog Costume Contest at Fort Greene Park, Oct. 26, 11:30 a.m. This is your once-a-year chance to see what has been hailed as “the greatest dog costume contest in New York City,” where production value is high and competition is fierce. Pre-registration for dogs entering the contest sold out in record time this year, but walk-up registration is open for the first 40 entrants on a first-come, firstserved basis, so arrive early to ensure your pup gets a spot. The contest is held alongside the Fort Greene Park Halloween Festival, which will include face painting, a pumpkin patch, train rides and more. Proceeds will go to local rescue org. Fort Greene PUPS. Can’t make it? Watch the livestream on the nonprofit’s Facebook page. Astoria — Halloween Harvest Festival at Socrates Sculpture Park, Oct 26, 12 p.m. – 4 p.m. This event hosted by the Parks Department will not only have an adorable canine costume contest with great prizes, but also a Blessing of the Animals and a pet memorial altar. The festival is inspired by Haitian Festival of the Ancestors, and will include a Gede song workshop, card readings, a costume-making workshop, face painting, a dance performance and a drum procession.

Coney Island — Dog-O-Ween at Coney Island Brewing Co., Oct. 27, 2 p.m. – 6 p.m. For the second year running, Coney Island Brewing Co. will host “Dog-OWeen, Pups n Pints.” Bring your pup (in costume, obviously) and enter them in a contest for a shot at prizes. Dogs can also perform tricks for treats, and have their portraits taken in a puppy photo booth. The Dog-O-Ween contest is a benefit for pet adoption service Rescue City. The suggested donation is $10 at the door, and a dollar from every Mermaid Pilsner will go to benefit the animal org. Rescue City will be on site with adoptable dogs, so don’t drink so much that you accidentally take someone home with you (a good rule of thumb in general).

Bay Ridge — Spooktacular Costume Contest at Vinny’s Pet Shop, Oct. 26, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. This family-owned pet shop has been in the neighborhood since 1978, and now they’re offering customers another way to celebrate their animals — by dressing them up in silly outfits. Stop by Saturday with your costumed dog (or cat, or ferret) and enter to win a $100 Vinny’s gift card.

Mosey over to Brooklyn Children’s Museum for new slow animals exhibit By Alex Williamson Bay Ridge Eagle

Tired of the breakneck pace of life in New York City? A new exhibit from the Brooklyn Children’s Museum could be just the escape you need. The museum is debuting a “Survival of the Slowest” exhibit, featuring a two-toed sloth, hedgehogs, a chameleon and other slow-moving animals to remind us all there’s value in chilling out and taking it easy. The exhibit will feature 19 distinct habitats with incredible creatures who’s defining characteristic is their utter lack of hustle. Through live presentations from expert handlers, kids will not only get to experience a face-to-face encounter with these slow pokes, they’ll learn some basics of evolutionary science and biology. The leisurely pace of these critters can actually be a smart adaptation in environments where the biggest, strongest and quickest animals often dominate. After all, slower animals eat less, burn less energy and blend in with their surroundings more readily than their speedier peers. One of the exhibit’s stars is Roger, a two-toed sloth who will be residing at the museum throughout the three-month project. Handlers will remove Roger from his cage three times daily to allow him to show off his extraordinary skills at dilly-dallying. That’s more moving around than the average sloth will ever do, since the extremely slow animals are vulnerable on the ground and, in the wild, only leave a tree to find a mate or to poop. An iguana, tarantulas, tortoises, a blood python, a monitor lizard and many other animals will also take up residence at the museum during the exhibit. “Survival of the Slowest” is a collaboration between the Brooklyn Children’s Museum and Canadian animal education company Little Ray’s Nature Centres. The traveling exhibit made its debut at the Canadian Museum of Nature last year. The exhibit opens at Brooklyn Children’s Museum Oct. 26 and will run through Feb. 2, and is included with general admission, which is $13.
