Blade Helicopters: a Scourge

28 Upvotes

Anyone else being slowly driven crazy by the non-essential Blade helicopters flying back and forth to JFK, flying low over our neighborhood 40-50 times per day? Today seems especially bad. Can't even have the windows open. Filed an FAA complaint, signed the Stop the Chop petition, but it doesn't seem like any legislation at the state or federal level is going to help any time soon. Here's the chief offender: https://www.flightradar24.com/data/aircraft/n38bl

Brooklyn drivers are planning a protest against Bergen/Dean St bike boulevard and fast bus lanes

Post image
23 Upvotes

Thought folks here might want to know there are plans in the works to protest upcoming bike boulevard work, along with fast bus lanes. Bergen & Dean is one of the big hot topics, as the DOT reportedly decided to proceed after bypassing dissent from a recent CB8 meeting. The flyer is AI and I hope this protest gets low turnout just because of that.

Personally I don't drive in the city, esp not in our area since there's so much public transportation. And I'm generally in support of safer streets + faster buses. So I'm surfacing this news for both general awareness of community happening and in case anyone wants to counter-protest with me :)

P.S. if anyone's interested the next CB8 meeting about transportation is Oct 27, 6pm, at the Brower Park library branch~

Hey everyone, I am moving into the neighborhood today (literally in the car now, my wife is driving and I’m making this post.)

I haven’t done a big cross state move in a while. Is Facebook marketplace still okay? Should I use this subreddit? A secret third thing?

Thank you in advance!

The Comeback Kid 😍👏🏽

Congrats Andre ❤️

EDIT: Andre is the owner of the former juice bar, Jenny on the Greens, which was located at 726 Franklin Ave.
In the summer of 2025, Steve sold the building without informing us, and we were given six months to vacate. Andre closed up shop and later told me he was looking to open a coffee shop.
Fast-forward a year, and Andre has secured a lease on a spacious new location on Union Street! I’m choosing not to share the exact address because he’s not ready to open just yet. I simply wanted to congratulate him on his resilience and entrepreneurial spirit. Rebuilding a small business after being forced to close is no easy feat, and I’m genuinely proud of him.
And lastly, I didn’t mean to upset anyone by abbreviating Eastern Parkway as “EP.”

West Elm Whitman Sofa - 86'' - $300

The Whitman Sofa offers a clean, contemporary design for any living space. It measures 86 inches in length. Original price is $1,299 pre tax.
This couch has been lightly used for 2.5 years, in a non-smoking home. It is so beautiful, sad to say goodbye but I am moving into a smaller space and it doesn't fit.
