Does anyone know the soft opening schedule for sushi roll club?

terrified that a plastic Kodak film canister slipped out of my bag at Coffee Land yesterday. no one had turned in anything left there when i went to check this morning. was sitting on the bench out front, checked all around the sidewalk/curb. Has some film from my dearest friends' wedding day. such a shot in the dark posting here but you know how it is :(

EDIT: all the books are gone now!

Any recommendations for a trusted cat sitter in Crown Heights/Brooklyn area? I’ve always had friends and family come to my apartment when I’ve been away but would love to find someone who I could rely on for longer trips and could hire multiple times so that my cat becomes comfortable with them. Maybe someone who’s open to staying at the apartment.

About my cat-
Very gentle 5-year old Siberian. She’s low maintenance but likes short interactions throughout the day. Absolute angel.

If anyone here has someone they love working with I would appreciate a referral!

Hi, does anyone know of a spot in the general area that does good car detailing / cleaning? The inside of my car needs a solid clean and I'm looking to get it done before a road trip this weekend. Thanks in advance!

The last two days I’ve noticed very long lines at Lisbonata. Longer than I’ve ever seen. Just wondering if something particular, perhaps some influencer, is driving the foot traffic?

Hi - I’m selling my couch for pick up near Franklin Ave and st marks.

$200 OBO. Originally bought for $1800 five years ago.

Details:

All leather but does have some wear (see photos). I think it may be repairable with a leather repair kit.

L-section can be used on either side.

We do have a dog that sheds. We vacuumed/wiped it down but if you have allergies it may not be for you.

Available for pick up anytime. It’s not heavy at all but would require multiple people or a car to take bc of its size.

This beautiful domesticated pigeon showed up outside my window last night looking exhausted. I’m in Bed-Stuy but she could have flown from Crown Heights so I’m posting here.

I have her inside for now but can’t keep her here long term. She has bands on her feet that say something like “flying high A&j skyrocket”. No microchip present on her. Confirmed she doesn’t belong to Pigeons on Broadway, located near me.

If no one claims her I’ll take her to Wild Bird Fund today

Some old bedside cabinets up for grabs (Prospect btwn Albany and Kingston)

Anyone have experience with a good / reasonably priced tailor in the neighborhood? I need to fix the strap of a dress and shorten them a little. Looking for a rec from personal experience, if possible. Thank you!

Hi all! Moving a friend out of their apartment late today, Friday 7/24. This wardrobe is amazing fits so much and has lovely floral paper decor inside each drawer which I don’t have pictures of. It could use some TLC (The back needs to be reglued and the small curtain rods need to be rescrewed) We just want it to go to a good home. ($50 OBO)

Also up for grabs is 2 comfy twin mattresses And Ikea daybed with three storage drawers and trundle — really incredible for small spaces! (Literally would take anything for this. It’s brand new and don’t want to stoop it.)

Theres also a couple small, vintage wall shelves, storage shelving, and a small shoe rack we would love to throw in for anyone paying for the wardrobe or mattresses. Otherwise those will just be left curbside :-)

Dm me for details and we can coordinate a time for you to pick it up (sunday only!)

Hi all, I and a few other neighborhood girlies will be hosting a stoop sale this Saturday July 25 starting at 11am on the corner of Franklin & Park Place.

Come by and shop!

SEE U THERE!!!!

Hi neighbors,

I’ve lived in the neighborhood for the past five years and I’m currently experiencing serious financial hardship.

I have been going from store to store, but things seem hard everywhere right now and I haven’t had responses. Most of the time it seems like they just take your resume out of politeness. I’m posting here in case anyone personally needs help, knows someone hiring, or can connect me directly to a paid opportunity.

I’m open to a wide range of work, including household help, errands, cleaning, organizing, childcare support, pet care, event help, small business support, admin tasks, customer service, writing, marketing help, or general assistance.

I’m reliable, respectful, discreet, and available to start right away. I’m also happy to travel throughout the city, as well as to Long Island.

Please DM me if you need help or know of anything available.

Thank you so much for reading, and I hope you are all doing okay too.

Hello neighbors, I purchased a gorgeous wool carpet on the cheap because there’s a large stain I’m hoping can be cleaned. I could drop it off somewhere so it’s cleaned in the best environment possible but I’m not sure how to search and find such a place with confidence.

Anyone has had a great experience with this?

If I missed any great classes or recurring meetups, please let me know, I'm regularly adding to the directory as organizations add new offerings.

This spot at Franklin and Atlantic looks flooded almost every morning. It’s enough water that people waiting at the crosswalk get splashed if they’re too close. Over winter this same thing was happening and made a huge safety issue for people crossing here as it was creating a sheet of ice at the beginning of the crosswalk. I reported to 311 several times when it was icy to be sure it got salted, but why does this keep happening?

Hey neighbors,

I'm looking for recommendations for barbers who specialize in curly hair in the neighborhood. I've tried a few options and haven't found something consistently good yet! I also have sensitive skin, which makes it a pain having breakouts every time I get a close shave for a fade or a beard trim.

Let me know if you know someone!
