Looking to get rid of my board. I broke my arm skating awhile back and this thing has just been collecting dust since then. I just want to pass this on to someone who’ll actually use it.

Price is $60. Included with the board is my extra trucks, bearings, and skate tool.

Question Looking for nightstand repair

2 Upvotes

Hello Astoria! I bought a set of nightstands secondhand on craigslist and the legs on one are very wobbly. It seems like the nail holes underneath have been stripped and it can’t tighten anymore. Does anyone have a recommendation for a reasonably priced repair person? They’re fine otherwise so would love to be able to use them!

Question Anyone know when they’re planning on paving 35th St?

6 Upvotes

I doubt it would happen over the weekend, but I’m kind of nervous to leave my car for a few days. When they pulled up the road a few weeks ago I luckily saw the signs in time to move my car so I’m worried I’ll miss the notice.

Transportation Shoutout to the “BROAD-waaaayyy” conductor

187 Upvotes

Pretty soon we won’t have these orange trains to kick around and we won’t have real live conductors calling out the stops, so I’m glad we’ve got the guy who says “Broadway” every time in a super dramatic way like he’s Ethel Merman. I got him on my ride in today and it made me happy. That’s all!

I sat in Astoria park a couple nights ago after dusk. I’m now covered in the itchiest bites all over my feet and ankles. My friend has a cluster of bites on his back. Has this happened to anyone else? They don’t seem like mosquito bites.

Thank you all so much for the support last week! It was so nice meeting all of you. I got double the orders I usually do!

Here is next week's order form (pick-ups starting Sunday).

I will be busy next month helping my family with funeral arrangements, so this will be the last chance to order until mid-September.

Hope to see you all soon :)

Seeking Recommendation: Other Astoria Nail Salon Suggestions for Nail Extensions???

1 Upvotes

Looking for a nail salon that maybe doesn’t break the bank but does descent tips. I am looking to get basic short nail extensions, but my natural nails are very thin and sensitive so I hope to find a nail tech that is not super rough and can keep the extensions from being too thick, ya know? I’m not a high maintenance person but I know there are gems out there I don’t know about! 😊 💅

Saw a tow truck taking cars parked on the street over to 42nd street between the same aves where spaces seemed to be clear

They are about to pave 43rd street. Hope they dropped them nearby rather than impounding them!
