From The New York Shitty Inbox: Sold For Scrap?
Filed under: 11211, 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
Curious to know exactly what this is about, I gave Mr. Madia a ring. Here’s the deal (in layman’s terms):
- This property is owned by the church and is habitable condition.
- However, instead of leasing the property the diocese is selling any/all metal fixtures for scrap.
- Inquiries made by concerned parishioners as to the revenue generated— and where it has been allocated— have been met with silence.
Interesting. While perhaps outside their jurisdiction (and this being as good a reason as any to give it a mention), I advised Mr. Madia and his colleagues to speak up about the matter at the next combined public and board meeting of Community Board 1 which is tomorrow!

someone should do something about this… these are the porta potties near the track at McCarren Park. i could not believe. i’d rather pee in the bushes
And, as he later noticed, one parks patron elected to do just that…
This is inexcusable folks. Really.
P.S.: While I am on the subject of north Brooklyn’s crappers it is with sincere displeasure that I note that the Jamie Campiz Playground “ladybug”(which some of you might recall is part of my “No Toilet Left Behind Project”) isn’t faring very well…
Upon closer examination I noticed the hinge is not broken.
Rather the nut had come loose and instead of, say, simply placing it back it was thrown away.
To be continued…
