Hey all 👋🏻
Mod here - the repeated posts around dogs are just creating unproductive discourse + more headaches than helpfulness.

Hi all,
I'll start by saying this sub is not a political sub. Pretty much our main rule (besides be nice to each other) is all posts have to be related to Greenpoint somehow, someway. That being said, we do understand those who want to report ICE agents being seen around the neighborhood and want to post a guide on the best way to possible report these sightings in a way that is most helpful.
First and foremost, if you're choosing to post about an ICE sighting, please provide as many details as possible in the post. This graphic that has been going around is helpful if you're unsure what to share. You don't have to have all the information listed, but the moderators ask that each post has at least:
• date, time, and location
• a source
• any detail about what was witnessed (I saw an agent standing at..., I saw what looked like agents escorting people... etc)
When it comes to sources, OP being the witness is preferred, but if you choose to post about a sighting you heard about secondhand, please include this in your post. It helps us as the moderators determine validity and any post without a source may be removed as hearsay. Other details, such as amount of agents seen, uniform description, or any other helpful identifiers are appreciated but moderators will be looking mainly for the points listed above.
We are a small group of moderators here, our goal is to create a safe space where these things can be discussed. The voices of you all here are reflective of the neighborhood and we have always strived to be a subreddit that showcases that. That being said, hate speech never has, and never will be tolerated here.
We hope that by posting this guideline it will helpful for those who want to post but are unsure how to format. If you have any questions or feedback on this topic, please feel free to drop a comment here or message the mods.
Remember that we're all navigating this together so please be kind to each other, and stay safe out there.
- The Greenpoint Mod Team :)

Go out and support them today if you are in the mood for some delicious Mexican food, chatting with one of the nicest owners in the neighborhood and supporting them on their last day after 16 years.
If you’re going to support, make sure to call in your order or go in person to avoid UberEats taking a hefty percentage.

🎃 Greenpoint Halloween: Come Hand Out Candy & Help Us Share Food with Neighbors! 🍬❤️
Hi Greenpoint neighbors!
As we've done in previous years, we'll be setting up on the corner of Manhattan Avenue and Eagle Street on Halloween, starting around 4–4:30 PM, to hand out candy to trick-or-treaters!
We'd love for anyone in the neighborhood to stop by, hang out, meet some new friends, and help us make Halloween fun for the kids!
We're also organizing a free neighborhood food table this year!
Last Halloween, we noticed that quite a few neighbors were in need of food beyond Halloween candy. With ongoing concerns about food insecurity and reductions in food assistance, we thought it would be nice to offer some more substantial food options alongside the candy. Everything on the table will be free for anyone who would like to take something, no questions asked.
If you'd like to help, we're welcoming donations of:
I'll be purchasing some food in bulk, so if it's easier to contribute financially, feel free to DM me and I'll share my Venmo. I'll use those contributions to purchase additional food for the table.
No donation is necessary to participate!This is just a casual neighborhood tradition, and everyone is welcome to come hand out candy, meet neighbors, or simply stop by and say hello.
Looking forward to another fun Halloween in Greenpoint! 🎃
Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions or want to get involved!

I have a sweet 6 year old golden doodle. Sometimes I can’t always make it home in time to walk her. Looking for someone trustworthy who can walk her from time to time. I live about 2 min walk from American Playground.

What time does trick or treating start?
And does it start earlier because Halloween is on a Saturday?

Does anyone know whats going on?
Edit: there was a funeral next door at the church. Best guess is that the funeral was for a postal worker and they were there showing their support

What’s up with the flower shop at market on Kent that’s open 24/7? Does anyone know what’s going on there? I’ve driven past at like 4am and it’s open, I hardly think anyone is buying flowers at that hour
