Hello Miss Heather! It’s that time a year again, to take out the wine and the matzah! We are having a first seder blow-out at the Greenpoint Shul on Friday April 6th and hope our local Jewish friends in Greenpoint in Williamsburg come dine with us, especially the young folks who haven’t been to our synagogue and experience our diverse melting pot of people tucked away on beautiful Noble St. Here are the details – thanks for posting!

An unintended consequence of Nassau Avenue reconstruction as spotted this weekend: an ad hoc skate park! I’m glad to see the powers that be have seen fit to install pylons. They were needed— badly! As for the wisdom of skating on this stretch, well, that’s still open to question…

Filed under: 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic 

This comes courtesy of a lass named D. The caretaker of the fetching felines which grace India Street, Tori, needs help! She writes:

Needed one or two colony caretakers for a feral cat colony of seven cats for morning feedings near West Street. Saturday morning,  and one or two other mornings, to be fed at 830- 9 A.M. Caretaker provides food. All the cats are neutered/spayed and are delightful. Colony has several caretakers. Rewarding work. A brief training is available the first time; vbondart@hotmail.com
