Old ass man threw my dog

19 Upvotes

An older man threw my dog at the Travers Park dog run today. He had taken his tiny dog into the big dog run, and didn’t like that my dog moved into the animal’s proximity.

He then threatened to physically assault my female dog walker. She was too shaken up to take his photo.

If anyone witnessed this and knows this gentleman’s name, please share it with me.

Lost Cat?

Saw what seemed to be a fully orange cat with a blueish collar outside my place.. unsure if lost or just an outside cat. If this is your missing cat please dm for details! Regardless i worry for outside cats, many cats have been hit by cars outside my place. New York City is no place for an outside cat.

neighbors keep parking in front of my driveway

13 Upvotes

our next door neighbors are quite annoying. they keep parking in front of our driveway and leaving their car (not double parked or anything).

i am getting quite sick of it. report it to the cops and it takes them forever to get there.

any way of stopping this or at least finding a traffic officer to help out? just had to go downstairs and wait for the guy to show up to tell him to move his car. thankfully, he moved quickly but this keeps happening. what is the best way to handle this situation?

Edit:: they also block a doctor's office on the weekends when they're closed. meanwhile, both their driveways are empty.... but they just park in front. i am so annoyed

Community Center, or Youth Center (both are good, but they are not the same)?

14 Upvotes

As I've written elsewhere, having a Variety Boys & Girls Club in our neighborhood is an intrinsic plus. I've commented elsewhere on the casino connection but I want to add a caution here about the claims that this is a full-on community center as opposed to a youth center. The programs that VBGC offers aren't aimed at adults, so this would be a departure for them.
https://bgcqueens.org/

Thus when JGR has a post states that "this center will be for our entire community, with a swimming pool, basketball court, theatre, classrooms, and space for local community organizations. It will give our neighbors of all ages more opportunities to connect, stay active, learn, and come together"(emphasis added) like a true community center-- https://www.nycgovparks.org/.../places.../community-centers, I'd very much like to know where that is coming from. It VBGC building a separate adult center on the grounds? If so, that would seem to put paid to the housing that has been spoken about.

I'd also add that there seems to be a disincentive to open it up to adults. The zoning rules require a parking minimum of one space/ten people of maximum occupancy (which the DOB determines). However. there is a footnote to the rule which reads--"In R5, R6 and R7-1 Districts, no accessory off-street parking spaces shall be required for that portion of a non-profit neighborhood settlement house or community center which is used for youth-oriented activities."

"Youth-oriented" isn't defined in the Zoning Resolution, but it would seem to indicate that opening up parts of the facility to people of all ages generates a parking space problem that doesn't exist if this facility only has youth programming.

We’re getting a community center!

$34 mm investment in our neighborhood! It’ll be at the billiards spot on 34th ave!

Gotta give props to Shekar for getting this through. he was speaking about this for years. Hopefully permanent paseo park is next!

The future Jackson Heights Variety Boys & Girls Club will include the first-ever community pool, indoor gym with basketball courts, and an auditorium-style theatre. It will serve as a hub for after-school and summer programs, senior programs, early childhood education, academic enrichment, workforce development, health and wellness initiatives, arts and cultural programming, recreational opportunities, and community events, creating opportunities for generations of Queens families. Residents will be invited to help shape potential additional uses for the site, including affordable housing, child care, outdoor sports and recreation facilities, and a rooftop farm. When built, this extraordinary investment will serve up to 10,000 kids and create a place where residents of all ages can gather to learn, play, and build community.

Did you lose a tuxedo cat?

13 Upvotes

Saw a youngish looking tuxedo cat hanging in front on my building tonight (74-10 35th Ave, between 74th and 75th). Larger than a kitten and appeared healthy, but still what I would call "petite." I tried tempting it into a carrier with a few treats. It ate a few before getting startled and running toward 74th St.

If you lost a cat matching this description, you may want to check near these blocks. And I hope you find each other!

Found an opened package with a silicone breastplate and my apartment number written on it. Could this be harassment?

17 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I live alone in an apartment building in NYC, and something really strange happened today. I'd appreciate some outside perspectives because I'm not sure how seriously I should take this.

I found an already-opened package in the common area downstairs. Inside was a silicone breastplate. There was no shipping label, recipient name, or clear address, but someone had handwritten “2C” on the package, which is my apartment number.

There was also a sticker on the package that said “Made in China.”

I didn't order anything like this, and I have no idea who left it there or why my apartment number was written on it.

What makes me especially uncomfortable is that I'm a woman living alone, and I'm the only Chinese person in my building, as far as I know.

I realize the sticker could be completely unrelated, and I don't want to jump to conclusions. However, finding a strange, opened package containing an intimate body-related item with my apartment number written on it feels unsettling. I can't help wondering whether someone could be targeting me, playing a prank, or trying to make me uncomfortable.

There's a security camera covering the area where the package was left, so I'm planning to contact my super or building management to ask them to review and preserve the footage.

For those of you who live in NYC or have dealt with something similar:

  • Would you consider this potential harassment, or could there be a more innocent explanation?
  • Would you ask building management to review the security footage first, or file a police report?
  • Given that I'm a woman living alone and the only Chinese resident in the building, would you be concerned about possible targeting, or is there not enough information to make that connection?
  • Is there anything else I should do to document the incident or protect myself?

I don't want to overreact or make assumptions about anyone's intentions, but I also don't want to dismiss something that could be intentional.

I'd really appreciate hearing your thoughts and advice. Thank you!

Terraza 7

Polish jazz musicians in New York, Bogna Kicinska (“jaw-dropping vocal facility (…)” - Rick Anderson, cdhotlist.com) and Kuba Cichocki (“Polish piano marvel” - Downbeat Magazine), join forces to create an exciting mix of Polish folk music with jazz. Supported by some of the most sought-after artists from the NYC music scene, they explore traditional Polish dances, melodies and stories, using contemporary arrangements. The group evokes a raw energy through intense grooves, rich harmonies and stirring, virtuosic vocals, but also delves into nostalgic lullaby-like songs

Sets at 7pm and 9pm.
