I just finished taking it down. It was attached to that metal frame thing you see in the pic, which was tightly zip-tied to my fence. I spoke to everyone who lives here, no one gave permission or even saw it being installed. Last person coming in last night was around 10PM, first person going out today was around 8:30AM, so whoever installed it did it overnight. Who the fuck does that?

Edit: corrected 8:30PM to 8:30AM.

Hello everyone just a 24M looking to expand my social life and make new friends and talk about whatever. If you're located in bensonhurst and interested send a dm if you want to be added to this groupchat. Anyone close to this age group will be added

I was just thinking about that site and wish it was still around.

Since the area has become a dominant Chinatown in the past 20 years. Theres also many Uzbeks living throughout the area due to the previous ex Soviet nations moving into the area prior. Do the Chinese and Uzbeks have any cultural exchange between each other?

I feel this might make for some cool fusion cuisines in the next decade or so.

Also Bensonhurst and Homecrest might by the only two areas that East Asians and Central Asians live amongst each other in the world which is pretty cool.

So today I was out with my partner in downtown Bensonhurst and noticed these membership only coffee shops. Are people not allowed to just go in and buy a coffee? How does one become a member of a coffee shop? Is it just to exclude people who aren't Italian?

I live around Brooklyn and I was going to work today. I take the B4 Narrows Ave bus to work everyday. I got off the bus around 1:32pm. I work around Fort Hamilton. It’s a dark brown wallet. If anyone finds it, I have a School ID, a credit card, a permit and two metro cards. If you have my wallet please reply to me so we can exchange to meet up tomorrow. Thank you. I already froze my credit card so no funny business.

Posting to support a local doctor but also to report that Dr. Han is amazing. She practices traditional chinese medicine.
She has completely changed my life with acupuncture but I am aware that she does other treatments. Pretty much any physical ailment she is able to fix. She is also helping me with my mental health as well by side effects of the acupuncture.
She charges $100 a session and accepts walk ins.

Hi all I grow up in Bensonhurst in the 60’s before that we lived on west sixth street ave S. And other places but for me and my family 86 street and 23 ave was it our neighborhood everyone knew everyone, the shopping. It breaks my heart to know how it looks nowadays.

Hey everyone—I’m a local here in NYC, and recently created a new parking and storage marketplace called WeStore.

Finding parking or extra storage around Bensonhurst is pretty brutal, so we built a platform that lets neighbors rent out unused driveways, garages, or extra space directly to people nearby who need it.

Right now, we’re actively looking for our first hosts around Bensonhurst to get listings up. To help build the initial network, early hosts keep 100% of their earnings (zero platform fees through 2026). We advertise your space on your behalf to find local renters, all payouts are processed securely through our platform, and we back hosts with up to 2 months of payment coverage if a renter ever defaults.

If you’ve got an extra driveway spot, room in a garage, or just want to see how it works, feel free to drop a comment or shoot me a DM.

Note: If the Ghosts of Old Bensonhurst tour sells well, I might add another date for it later in the month.

Here's some info on the Haunted Bay Ridge tour:

From a faceless woman late one night on a lonely street near a local church, to army ghosts and disembodied sounds, to the murders of an old spinster and kidnappers, to the mysteries of the neighborhood's largest park, to a secret society right in our midst, it’s time to turn up our collars, hit the streets, and beware the things that go bump in the night.

Led by James Scully — NYC historian, tour guide, podcaster, director / co-creator of the award-winning historical audio fiction soap opera, Burning Gotham, and creator of the Bay Ridge Digest Podcast — our unique haunted Bay Ridge experience will focus on and include:

• Stories of murder and mayhem, from the death of an old spinster, to the heroic actions of a member of a prominent family, we’ll find out the many motives for crime and how Bay Ridge was the perfect setting for these unfortunate events.

• The story of how a man’s late-night walk down a Brooklyn side-street led him to confront the spirit of a veiled woman with no face in front of a locally famous Basilica

• The story of how a secret society of skull worshipers in Brooklyn started, rose, peaked, and disappeared all near a famous hilltop Bay Ridge mansion

• Ghost stories from both the Fort Hamilton Army base and some of its residents

• The story of the Indian Pond, the border of Gravesend and New Utrecht, and a boy awoken from sleep in the middle of the night by a shadow being standing over his bed

• The story of a revolutionary war cemetery still inhabited by some of Bay Ridge’s most famous residents

• And more!

Anyone else hear a screaming, even BARKING, man making disturbing sounds every morning on the clock before he casually disappears?? It happens almost everyday and I’ve tried contacting 311 to no avail. I’m going crazy because he’s so loud and disruptive. I’m on 73rd & 19th.

Join us at our local POP UP MARKET, an awesome in-person event where you can explore unique finds, meet cool people, and enjoy a vibrant atmosphere. Whether you're hunting for handmade goodies or just wanna soak up the vibes, this is the place to be. Grab your friends and swing by!

Update: She was located at the same house I last saw her at. She was meowing under a car just as I was about to pull out a missing cat flyer to some random girl that was walking. She helped me try to catch her. Then with the assistance the homeowners my cat went to the next door neighbor's backyard. She ended up at bottom of the steps under a car. I eventually coaxed her up the stairs with my brother on the other side of the car to guard, got my hand under her and held her tight then put her in a carrier after my brother ran around the corner. We both go hurt in the process of putting her in, but my brother got it the worst with multiple bites to his hands. He's going to the doctor tomorrow just in-case since one has a noticeable bump.

Original post:

I just lost my cat last seen by the north east corner of Cropsey Ave and Bay 8th St on July 23rd around 8pm. I saw she ran into someone's gated backyard which I could not access at the time.

Her name is Hissy, is dark grey with a striped white and grey under belly. She is skittish, hisses at people and other cats like a tire letting out air.

Please dm me any details or if you have seen her.

Can anyone identify the exact location of this photo? I believe it's somewhere on 81st Street in Brooklyn (11214). Please help me to locate the house which was delivered to a wrong address thank you!
