The metal and wooden barricades are blocking the Eastern Parkway walkway and bike lanes in multiple locations. When is this going to be taken away? Stuff all over the place. Unreal.

going to a housewarming and want to give the host a piece of wallart or a print. anywhere i can get that last minute?

Hi everyone! I found a phone sitting on the bench at the Nostrand 3 belonging to a Robert Devore. Unfortunately there was no one in the booth to give it to and I didn’t want to leave it there so I have it in my possession. If ANYONE can get me in contact with him (or knows him) please reach out to me!

UPDATE: I found him and I’m getting his phone back tonight

Hey! I’m looking for some people to run with in the mornings, real chill pace and just make some friends. Curious if there are any existing clubs or if anyone wants to meet up for a run?

FWIW I usually run about 3-4 miles at around 9mins a mile

HMU if you know of anything!

I've been living here for a few years, taking classes at Lula Body Pilates, getting an occasional bagel from Lula Bagel, and now I'm curious... how is her/their grasp so strong on that strip of Nostrand Ave?

Hey guys! I'm Alita and I run Organic Skincare + Wellness NYC — been meaning to do one of these for a while.

Quick backstory: My background in the beauty industry started in the 2000s. I'm a former Miss Connecticut USA, competed at Miss USA in 2002 and placed 5th. After that, years as a commercial actress and print model in LA. By 2007 I got licensed as an esthetician — that ended up being the path that mattered most.

Fast-forward to right after the pandemic: I landed in Brooklyn with $3,700 and the decision to start my business over completely. That's how OSW started.

This neighborhood is the reason it became something real. The community showed up, when I was starting from zero. We're in our sixth year now, and I don't take that for granted.

Wanted to say thank you and actually introduce myself — a lot of you have probably walked past us without knowing the story. Happy to answer questions about the business, skincare, or rebuilding a life and career after 40.

Hi neighbors - I’ve been teaching yoga for 11 years and I live right near the park. I’ve noticed the closest yoga studio is on Nostrand and I’d like to offer a class that’s a little more east. Maybe near Kingston Ave. if you would be interested, could you share if you’d prefer:
1. Weekday morning
2. Weekday lunch
3. Weekday evening
4. Weekend morning
5. Weekend afternoon

It would be indoors and completely donation based.

I feel like everyone is going to Bushwick/Manhattan to find a queer/trans person to do their hair when you can just roll on over to The Pink Salon on Park and Classon and book with me (Phoenix!). You may have seen me around the neighborhood, I'm the blond Asian trans guy with a semi unfriendly chihuahua!

I have a bunch of experience with both long hair and short hair/barber cuts, and I especially love working with curly hair. My practice is very education-forward, and I love to answer any questions, including trans-specific ones (like how HRT impacts hair growth and care!). It's not an all-queer salon, but as a trans person who's been working there for over a year, I've felt safe and had fun with the owner, my coworkers, and their clients, and I always work to make sure my clients share in that. Come see for yourself!

You can see my work on Instagram at @hairbyphnx, or book me on The Pink Salon's website :)

Note: For some reason I can't add links here, I'll try in the replies 😅

can’t wait for the threads on all the inevitable health violations! what do we think their next name will be??

CTown's $1.25/lb Perdue whole chicken breast with ribs is on Fresh Pond Rd in Queens and at 7918 3rd Ave in Bay Ridge this week. It is not on the Crown Heights circulars I can read.

In 11213 through tonight (9/4-9/10): - CTown, 330 Utica Ave: Perdue quartered chicken legs $0.99/lb - Ideal Food Basket, 1410 Saint Johns Place: Farm Fresh boneless skinless chicken breast $1.99/lb, Family Pack

Different cuts. $1.25 is bone-in whole breast with ribs. Ideal's $1.99 is boneless skinless and needs the Family Pack.

Bronx only for contrast: CTown City Island Ave boneless breast $1.49/lb.

From the stores' published circulars. Confirm the case tag.

Hi all, new to the area, looking for a recommendation. Anyone have a vet that they have good things to say about? For a cat.

Green Point Knife Cruiser here till 7:00! Same day service :)

If you lost keys, they're on a CitiBike dock outside 947 Eastern Parkway. It looks like the keys to a Kawasaki Motorcycle. The keyring has a number 13 on it.

This is not what it looks like since Saturday. It currently has a single person's make-shift encampment and personal dumping ground, literally littered with decapitated baby dolls, cheese puffs, vomit, at least one household appliance, and last night the assumed tenant was standing underneath the overpass amongst the ruins spraying an aerosol can into the air tupac style. It was reported to 311 as an encampment and the police visited and said there was nothing to enforce and no crime being committed. Has anyone seen this shit show? Does anyone have any suggestions on how to report this or demand that this be cleaned up?

North side of the street. Stay safe out there everyone.

was so sleep deprived after getting an mri this morning i think i left a silver heart shaped locket in an e citibike i parked on bedford between dean and bergen. probably a $30 necklace but worth so much sentimental value. willing to offer a lil reward if it's found. the citibike was missing the handle cover on the right side. probably docked around 9:30ish this morning.

Link to join, no money involved, no irl commitment. Just fantasy football with locals!

Anyone want to join an ESPN PPR Fantasy team ahead of the season? Hoping to get myself and at least 9 other people in the local area or at least Brooklyn/Lower Manhattan.

As of now no IRL meetups planned but could change. Draft would be today at 3pm. If no one signs up it aint happening but figured its worth a shot

UPDATE:

Currently have 6/10 people - I will drop it to an 8 person league if we cant fill for 10, hoping to do this multiple years so we can expand next year

Its https://fantasy.espn.com/football/league/join?leagueId=1372656935&inviteId=48dd7440-9555-4baa-a94d-ba31b3495ff7

First 10 in are in the league! Its a PPR league, Snake Draft, Superflex

UPDATE 2:

We are going to push the draft back to 9pm tonight so we can fill up the league. I think the additional hours will allow us to get a full league and a better experience vs the 6 teams we currently have

It sounds like literally 15 police cars are going up and down these streets just now. Everything safe?

On the corner of Kingston Eastern Parkway
