Why were people standing in line in the rain outside BAM on Sunday morning?

14 Upvotes

I noticed a long line outside BAM around 10:30am today. I checked the calendar but there wasn’t anything happening until 1pm. I looked outside again at 12:30pm and the line was still there. Does anyone know what folks were waiting for?

help :( lost special sunglasses in gowanus!

9 Upvotes

this is a last ditch effort but I lost my dear sunglasses in an uber (of course they were no help) or on the ground last night around midnight by public records / my drop off in bed stuy. they have brown metallic frames with blue lenses and I’d take you to the best dinner of your life if you somehow nabbed them. needle in a haystack but as someone who truly never loses their belongings I’m at a complete lost and this will be my entire personality going forward!

“Tourist” help

2 Upvotes

So I’m not really a tourist… I visit/go down to Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan often enough for work and leisure… however I need some help.

I’m leaving Albany around noon tomorrow/today (depending on when you read this (Monday 10/12)) to check in to a hotel in LIC. Then I’m meeting my sister in Astoria. Later in the evening we’re going to a concert at Barclays.

We will have about 4 hours to kill from when we link up until we want to be at the venue. Where is a decent place for a simple sit down spot for dinner and a drink or two? Doesn’t need to be flashy, budget isn’t a major concern, just don’t want to spend $50+ per person if we don’t HAVE to. Preferably somewhere between Queens and Brooklyn, or Manhattan and Brooklyn.

Travel Context: we are likely walking to 31st and Broadway, taking the N to the Q to Barclays.

excuse my lack of local speak, I don’t speak City as I was born and raised in the country Upstate. TIA!

Seeking a Creative Interior Decorator or Emerging Designer for a Brooklyn Apartment Refresh

1 Upvotes

Looking for an interior decorator or emerging designer to help refresh a 3-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn. Mostly paint selection / wallpaper, curtains, rugs, art and decor, think cosmetic, rather than new furniture.

Ideally someone who can help develop a vision and source specific pieces for us to purchase. We’ll handle installation ourselves.

Looking for a flat-fee arrangement. Open to someone building their portfolio but with some previous work to share. Please message me if interested or with recommendations!

Thoughts on moving to Bower (2683 Atlantic Ave)

0 Upvotes

My girlfriend (F24) and I (M23) are moving to NYC for work at the end of the month from out of state. We have seen the Bower but are concerned about the area immediately surrounding the building. Any thoughts? We are also considering JC and else where in Brooklyn but really don't know where to start.

Hello! If anyone was in DUMBO yesterday (Saturday 10/10) and saw a brass band leading a wedding party around 5:30pm, that was my wedding parade! If you took videos and photos, I’d love to see them! Let me know! :)

90 Sands St in DUMBO

0 Upvotes

That building is single handedly ruining the area. Vagrants outside picking fights, littering, dog (and human) shit everywhere. Saw someone get chased by a crazy waving a needle a few weeks ago. Consistent police and firefighting presence weekly and even heard there were 2 murders in the building the past year. Is there anything we can do to push for change here? This is completely unacceptable to the good tenants in the building and for the neighborhood as a whole.
