Celebrating Community

Friends of Red Hook Library inaugurates LEGO drive.

The first meeting of the resuscitated Friends of the Red Hook Library was held last Saturday at the library.  Our first project is begun. Once a month the library hosts a Lego group. Kids who sign up come in and create all kinds of things out of Legos. Thing is, the library could use more blocks for the kids – so we have started a LEGO DRIVE! If you have grown up kids who don’t need the blocks anymore, it would be highly appreciated if you could bring them to Sandra at the library. If you would like your gift acknowledged publicly, shoot an email over to us at the Star-Revue ([email protected]), and we will print it in the paper, as well as the name of someone you’d like to have acknowledged with your gift.

This drive is ongoing – whenever the library is open (which now includes Saturdays), you make make your donation. And many thanks!

There are many types of wines and spirits from various regions, and each bottle has a handwritten note on it providing details about the wine. There are also treats and bowls for dogs, and toys for children. Enrique Lopez opened the shop in 2012 with a

Long-awaited report card shows improvement needed on rezoning commitments

The Gowanus Oversight Task Force (GOTF), charged with monitoring the city’s commitments towards the area’s 2021 rezoning, recently published a report on the status of several agreements. The commitments were created by Councilmember Brad Lander and Community Board Six as a way to soften the impact of forcibly transforming the mixed-use neighborhood from being somewhat like Red Hook into much

Court Street redesign was justified by an anecdotal survey

In the battle of Court Street, common arguments around the thoroughfare in its former and current conditions include double parking, traffic safety concerns, deliveries and modes of access to the corridor. We were able to obtain a copy of the survey commissioned by Mayor Adams. The survey was part of a report issued by the Deptartment of Transportation. The 81-page
