  1. Snowman in Bed-Stuy URL Clues

    I subscribe to the RSS feed for Brownstoner, a real estate and news publication focusing on Brooklyn. I opened up the January 27, 2026 daily links post by Anna Bradley-Smith and was greeted by a snowman (or snowwoman?) with a very wide base (see photo). Having documented multiple snowmen on The New Leaf Journal (see 2020 (a), 2020 (b), 2021, and 2025 snowmen), I was curious whether I could document the one presented in Brownstoner. Upon examining the image caption and file name, I […]

  7. #NewYork - Services for the UnderServed using #UrbanGardens to target food insecurity

    The initiative has been so successful that Services for the UnderServed plans to include gardens in all future developments.

    Rob Flaks, Jul 17, 2025

    "In a city where food and housing insecurity often go hand in hand, Services for the UnderServed (S:US) is planting solutions for both at the same time.

    "At a supportive housing complex in #BedStuy, residents are tending to one of the first urban gardens launched by S:US back in 2011. The garden features edible plants, flowers, and even beehives producing fresh honey, - all maintained by the tenants themselves.

    " 'To be able to garden, get your hands dirty—it’s an amazing resource I hope all of our community has access to,' said Mike Hollis, vice president of #FoodInsecurity at S:US.

    "The initiative has been so successful that S:US plans to include gardens in all future developments. 'When you have that foundation of #HousingSecurity and #FoodSecurity, it gives people the stability to take the next steps in wellness, employment and personal growth,' Hollis said.

    "The Bed-Stuy building, which offers stabilized rent for individuals with disabilities and serious health conditions, is home to 54 residents. For tenant Yussuf Salam, the garden has been life-changing. 'I got into the garden, I went to school—you learn things about yourself,' he said.

    "But the gardens are just one of over 30 such properties in the borough, with a total of 1,484 housing units. But their latest project is taking root in #EastNewYork, where the organization is developing #Alafia, one of its largest projects to date.

    "Alafia is a multiphased, mixed-use development on a 28.5-acre site in the #SpringCreek area. Once complete, it will include 2,400 units of #AffordableHousing and #SupportiveHousing, a health clinic, community and commercial spaces, manufacturing facilities and over 11 acres of publicly #accessible open space.

    "Alafia is currently partially opened with 452 affordable housing units for tenants—many of whom are formerly homeless or living with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

    "Those behind the project say projects like these are the size and scope they need to tackle our boroughs housing crisis.

    " 'That is such an opportunity for the organization and the borough to expand the work, giving people dignified housing and spaces to grow their own food,' Hollis said.

    "Just like in Bed-Stuy, any surplus produce from Alafia’s gardens will be donated to local #CommunityFridges, ensuring that the benefits extend beyond the housing sites themselves."

  17. LunÀtico maybe one of the best music rooms in town, but it's inconvenient to get to and now there's a good chance they turn you away when you get there, so don't go as often as I used to. Shame!

    But took a chance on a short-week Tuesday late set and rewarded with a gorgeous set of finger-plucked folk from Lau Noah. Her new/debut album is a treat, check it out.
