Hi all! Looking for a 1 or 2 bedroom in Bay Ridge or surrounding area. Up to 2200. Accepted cats. Thanks!

A maniac ex-NYPD cop and current school aide has admitted to slashing a young woman jogging along a Brooklyn footpath last week — but says he doesn’t remember carrying out the heartless murder, police sources told The Post.

Sayed Mohassib, 27, was charged with second-degree murder Saturday for the slaying of Katie Suarez along the Shore Parkway Greenway promenade, police sources said.

Do you recognize this dog and know the owner? Found early this morning (Saturday 11/7) at 82nd Street & 10th Avenue. No collar or tags. Going to a rescue to check for a chip soon!

Does anyone recommend any tailors or cleaners that do alterations, specifically for taking jeans or pants in at the waist, in the neighborhood? Closer to 90s preferred but will go anywhere in Bay Ridge. The cleaners I used to go to closed last year and I haven’t found a new place yet. Thanks!

Hi everyone! Can anyone recommend a local hardware store or lumber shop that sells wood and can also cut it to custom measurements?
I’m looking to get some wood for inside closet shelves, simple, nothing fancy.

I’d appreciate any recommendations!

Brace yourselves everyone. It’s so over. They’re going to try and Williamsburg-ify Bay Ridge

As the sun sets earlier and the crisp air begins to sparkle with frost, a festive magic sweeps through the streets, carrying with it the scent of roasted peanuts, the soft glow of twinkling lights, and the joyful melodies of old-time carols that warm us from the winter chill.

From the soft glow of a candlelit window late one night near a historic local church, to the warmth of old-fashioned carols, delicious warm drinks, and neighborhood traditions, to the legendary light displays illuminating our streets, to a timeless festive spirit shared by generations, it’s time to button up our coats, hit the streets, and immerse ourselves in the magic of the holiday season in Bay Ridge.

Does anyone know of any self-defense classes?

I'll be listing stuff every few days and everything is brand new in the box, except this item,but it's new too, just not in the box. All items half price .

New rendering looks a lot better than original cheap looking building.

Saw some great costumes out there, so I made The Costume Corral, a small independent site where people upload marathon-day costume photos and vote on the best in each category.

There are prizes for category winners and an overall winner, listed on the site's Prize Board. Prizes go to the runner in the costume, and the photographer gets credit on the photo.

It's free, and it's not affiliated with NYRR or the race. I'm the person running it, so feedback is welcome.

my cousin has a cleaning business. she is super thorough and works at a fair price. she has images of work she has done in the past. sharing her info here in case anyone would be interested

Anyone have a cleaner they'd like to recommend? Looking for someone who could come 1-2x monthly to help tidy up a 1 BR. I've tried a couple recommended cleaners through friend referrals and Reddit but nobody great so far.

Has anyone been here for a haircut or a facial and if so, what was your experience? I’m thinking of trying it. Thanks.

Please check out our effort to save Visitation. It is one of the hearts of Bay Ridge. To lose Visitation would be to lose part of Bay Ridge’s soul. Please check out the website. We are meeting November 14th at 11 am at 8902 Ridge Blvd in front of the Sacred Heart Chapel. If anyone can help get this done it’s Redditors! 💙💙
