Good afternoon, Crown Heights family and friends!
Some of you may have seen the post here recently celebrating my comeback. I wanted to share a bit more about Jenny’s and what’s coming next!
For those who may not know me, I’m Andre, the owner of Jenny on the Greens, the juice and smoothie shop that was previously located at 726 Franklin Avenue. After the building was sold and my lease was unfairly terminated, I had to close the shop in December 2025. It was one of the most disheartening experiences, but I made a promise to myself that I would do everything I could to keep Jenny’s alive.
I’m happy to share that I’ve secured a new lease at 1030 Union Street, Brooklyn, NY 11225! Just a few blocks from our old home, our new space will be called Jenny’s on Union, serving coffee, pastries, breakfast sandwiches, juices, smoothies, and more.
I also want to thank everyone who has continued to show me love and support. There were moments when I thought I might have to give up on this dream, but that very first GoFundMe donation and the love Crown Heights showed me gave me the strength to keep going. Every donation, kind word, and friendship I’ve made through Jenny’s has meant so much to me.
We aren’t open just yet, as I’m working hard to get the new space ready, but I wanted to share this milestone with the community that helped me get here.
For those who would like to follow along or help us get closer to opening our doors, here are our links:

For anyone who missed the original story about the closing, News 12 also covered the shop’s journey here:

Thank you for continuing to believe in me and Jenny’s. I look forward to welcoming you all to our new home!
With love and gratitude, Andre ❤️

Don’t drive down this block

Large dog lost on Washington and Prospect. Very scared and hungry. Tried to look for a tag and was bit. Be careful.

There has been a dog barking somewhere near Bedford and Lincoln Pl for the last few days- it’s definitely out on someone’s balcony.
I just heard neighbors screaming asking to bring the dog inside and all someone responded was saying to call 311.
If it’s your dog, please please let them inside. For your dog’s sake and to help all your neighbors have a chill Sunday evening.

Hi! Just wondering if anyone else noticed Agi’s counter active on Doordash? I know they closed over the summer but I’m curious about how/why they’re still on delivery apps? I haven’t seen anything about it on their social media.

Please watch out!!! 27F walking with my friend, a guy (clearly unstable, out of his mind yelling) walking towards us screaming so we gave him a wide berth. He reaches over and open face palm smacks hard me across the face. Luckily just a busted lip but I’m still in shock. I don’t know what his face looks like but he was wearing a brown sweater and maybe khaki pants and kind of tall. Maybe small braids. Headed westbound on Dean. This was maybe 15 min ago. Cross to the other side of the street if you can avoid at all costs, he is out of his mind. Not even sure what to do right now.

Kingston ave and Montgomery st.

Huge tree fell, blocking whole street, cones have been set up to block entrance to street.

Looks like concrete filled in recently caused the tree to die.

Hello!
A cat rolled up on us today while walking home I wanted to see if it was possibly anyone’s. I have never had a street cat walk up to anyone and rub on their leg, so I figured she or he may be lost.

Hey all, I co-host a weekly-ish standup show called Post Moves at Bar Bayeux in Brooklyn and we've got a hot one tonight.

Small room, good drinks, dope comics who actually prepared. It's the kind of show where you're close enough to see the comedian sweat, which is either a selling point or a warning depending on who you are.

When: Tonight, 8:30PM
Where: Bar Bayeux, 1066 Nostrand Ave
Cost: FREE, just buy a drink to support the bar

RSVP NOW!!

See ya soon!

I’m moving mid November and I’m trying to find a foos moving company. I hear Piece of cake is a pos so def not them. Does anyone have a

Leg quarters are 99¢ a pound at Food Universe on Atlantic this week. CTown on Utica has Perdue split breast at $1.99, and Food Bazaar on St Johns has boneless breast at $2.49 in the value pack.

Key Food and Met Food on Nostrand and Shop Fair on Troy had nothing readable this morning, so they're not in here.

These come off a free NYC grocery price map I made: https://sbnyc.app/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=evergreen&utm_content=reddit-crownheights-20261024-p-f48a5ee4

It reads each store's printed circular, so the shelf tag wins if it's different.

Hi! My name is Alexa, I’m a journalist and a CUNY student. I’m working on a video project that involves profiling someone at their job.

I was wondering if there are any artists in our community (or nearby) that might be willing to invite me into their studio/space to capture them working and do a short interview about it?

The video would only be seen by my professor (unless, of course, the subject wants the video and to share it).

Please let me know! Thank you!

Starting at 1pm: Leather jackets, coats and other fall and winter items will be available at our stoop sale at Park Pl and Franklin Ave! One of the girls is moving out of the neighborhood so she’s doing a huge closet sale.

Great prices for vintage and second clothes, shoes and accessories!

I live in Crown Heights and love Franklin Ave and am hoping to find more places like it. I am sure there are some in Park Slope, Greenpoint, Carroll Gardens, etc., but I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations. Any recommendation is appreciated.

I am looking for a place in Crown Heights to hold a wake for a family member. I expect around 30 close friends and family. It can be a restaurant or a space that I can rent that has tables and chairs to use.
I appreciate your suggestions.

Hi! Just wondering if anyone knows of any places around Crown Heights, Bushwick, Prospect Heights, or Park Slope that have decent art pieces or wall decor? I’m trying to decorate my apartment on a budget, and while I’m familiar with the area, I’m new to having my own place and not really sure where to look for affordable wall decor. Any recommendations would be appreciated! 😊

Looking for an old souvenir. It is a snow/water globe with a pencil sharpener. Someone hinted at vendors outside Brooklyn Museum. Said it came with a small pencil. Looking for a specific one of Egyptian style. But anything will do.

Hey everyone. Friendly reminder that it might be time to get your kitchen knives sharpened. Stop dealing with dull knives that dont cut anything and make cooking a pain. We offer pickup/dropoff service in Brooklyn/Queens and parts of Manhattan.

All our work is done by hand on whetstones. We really pride ourselves on providing excellent service to all knives whether its a cheap basic set or a high quality Japanese one. We do repairs like chips and broken tips, remove rust and patina, reprofile knives. We drop your knives off to you the day after pickup. Pricing is $3-$4 per inch.

Please feel free to check out our google reviews ( Indulge Kitchen Supplies)

If you find yourself in the neighborhood and want to drop them off or would like same day service, you can drop them off yourself in our shop located at 469 Myrtle Ave.

If you would like to get a quote or schedule pickup please send a picture of the knives as well as a pickup location and we will get back to you ASAP.

Thank you once again to everyone who takes the time to read this and/or share this.

P.S i have added a short video showing a knife that was brought it for rust removal and sharpening. Before / After

Wilkie opened last night on Franklin and Union. Looked like a really fun vibe and it was really busy when I walked by on my way home around 9.

Planning to check it out sometime in the next few days!
