STOP OVERDEVELOPMENT by PARK CIRCLE

 

Rally to Stop Overdevelopment by Park Circle

Saturday, December 5th, noon

Rain Date: Sunday, December 6th, noon

Protest the building of thirteen-story luxury towers at the present site of the International Baptist Church (Ocean Parkway, Caton Place, and Coney Island Avenue at Park Circle).

 

From the Stable Brooklyn community group:

This rally is in response to a ULURP [Uniform Land Use Review Procedure] filed by the developer, JEMB, which has a rental agreement with the International Baptist Church.

 

Our little part of Windsor Terrace/Kensington has been subject to spot zoning, resulting in the development of luxury housing in a once thriving, integrated working class neighborhood. Many of us have been priced out of other neighborhoods. The children we raised can no longer afford to live here.

 

57 Caton Avenue (next door to 312 Coney Island Avenue) has recently been rezoned and will be developed soon, adding even more luxury housing to the neighborhood.

 

Some of us who live near the site have been testifying: at an initial Community Board 7 meeting, the Borough President’s hearing, the City Planning Commission hearing, and the City Council Land Use Committee. We have gotten to know each other and banded together because all of us agree:

 

• The development is out of context with our neighborhood.
• It can only make matters worse for traffic at Park Circle.
• The sheer wall will act as an echo chamber for our neighbors in the apartments at 10, 20, and 30 Ocean Parkway who already suffer from rush-hour horns and heavy traffic from Park Circle.
• It will cast a shadow on the Ocean Parkway bike path entry to Prospect Park.
• It could be an environmental nightmare for Prospect Park animals and plant life (noise and light pollution, shadows).
• It does nothing to solve the housing crisis in our city.
• It monetizes views of Prospect Park.

 

The rally will be held at 10 Ocean Parkway. (map)

AGENDA FOR TOMORROW'S ONLINE PUBLIC MEETING OF COMMUNITY BOARD 12 (FREE)

 

Community Board 12 Online Public Meeting

Tuesday, November 24th, 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Community Board 12 covers most of Kensington, Borough Park, and part of Midwood.

Two of the items on the agenda are as follows:

1) The Board will vote on a rezoning application that seeks to rezone 5802, 5804, 5806, 5808, 5822 16th Avenue; and 1566, 1572, 1574 58th Street; and 1571 59th Street, from R5 and R5/C2-2 zoning districts to C4-4A and R5 zoning districts. Lots 36, 49 and parts of Lots 50 and former Lot 34 would be rezoned from R5/C2-2 to R5. The adjoining street beds, within 100 feet of 16th Avenue to the center lines of 58th and 59th Streets and 16th Avenue would be rezoned from an R5 district to a C4-4A district. This would include a small portion of Block 5509, Lot 41 which extends into the intersection of 59th Street and 16th Avenue. The proposed zoning map amendment will facilitate the development of a five-story commercial office building with a total floor area of approximately 15,945 zoning square feet (3.99 FAR) to be constructed at 5802, 5804, and 5806 16th Avenue.

ONLINE FUND RAISER FOR COMPOST DROP-OFF FOR THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD

From the East 4th Street Community Garden:

Everyone should be able to compost their household food scraps. But with the end of NYC Sanitation's compost pick-up, where can people turn? 

The East 4th Street Community Garden is stepping up to be a composting oasis for the whole community. But the Garden needs your support. And thanks to NYC Partnership for Parks and IOBY.org, every dollar you donate will be matched 1:1 during this Composting For All Campaign. 

Your tax-deductible donation, which can be made here, will allow us to respond to the community's composting needs. By raising $2,500, which will be matched dollar for dollar thanks to the Partnerships for Parks and IOBY.org, we will rebuild and expand our composting area by creating attractive, durable bins and bays to replace our aging, overloaded system. You can see more on our Composting For All webpage. 

We estimate that we have at least 150 composters stopping by on at least a biweekly basis and interest grows by the month. At current rates we estimate we will compost over 3 tons of material annually. 

Won’t you show your support with a recommended donation of $25? Of course, we welcome gifts of any size to meet the matching challenge.

DONATING HOLIDAY GIFTS TO THE CLIENTS AT THE KENSINGTON FAMILY SHELTER

 

 

From Tracy and Catherine, our neighborhood's volunteer liaisons to The Kensington Family Shelter

Hello neighbors:

2020 is almost done—and good riddance! We hope you have weathered everything in good health and that better times are ahead.

Because of the pandemic, the shelter has not been accepting donations or scheduling events since the spring, but they have asked us to put together our annual holiday gift drive and they are organizing a socially distanced celebration to distribute the presents.

As in past years, we have two drives: one for the kids and one for the adults.

We work with shelter staff to select gifts for each child that are appropriate to their age, the space, and other considerations, at a range of price points. Everything is on this Amazon wish list, and the shelter address is the default shipping address.

We know that many people want to support struggling local businesses this year so if you would like to purchase an item from the list at another business and drop off or ship to the shelter, feel free! Please just mark the item as purchased on the list so we don’t get doubles.

In the past we have organized a wonderful gift-wrapping event that will not be possible this year. If you are able to select the gift wrap option when ordering, that would be amazing. Otherwise, shelter staff will be putting anything unwrapped in gift bags (which are also on the wish list, along with batteries, if you don't feel like browsing hundreds of toys!)

We don’t want to forget the parents at the shelter and will be collecting new perfume, cologne, and body care gift sets. You can buy one or more of your choice anywhere and drop off or mail to the shelter, and we have also added some items to a separate Amazon wish list for convenience.

We know the pandemic has caused financial strain for many people and so we understand if you are unable to donate a gift this year. Please feel free to post our wish lists on your social media so we can make this year’s drive as big a success as in the past—and thank you in advance for whatever support you can provide.

Kids wish list: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3C4UYBDGH5B7Z?&sort=default

Adult wish list: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2DMWOX3PF1GQ6?&sort=default

Shelter address: The Kensington Gift Drive / Attn: Uniquia / 385 McDonald Ave., Brooklyn, NY 11218

We wish you very happy and healthy holidays and will keep you apprised of any donation or volunteer opportunities down the road. Mask up and stay safe!

Love,

Tracy and Catherine

About KWT Mutual Aid

Launched on March 19th, 2020, KWT Mutual Aid is a volunteer organization created by neighbors for neighbors, with the objective of helping our community cope with the physical, mental, emotional, and economic hardships created by the COVID-19 crisis.

The idea is simple: showing solidarity through our actions. Neighbors helping neighbors by pooling resources and supporting each others' needs.

Our neighborhoods include immigrant communities that are often denied financial support from the city, state, and federal government, neighbors who have lost their jobs due to the pandemic and those living in vulnerable situations.

KWT Mutual Aid partners with local groups, organizations, and volunteers to meet needs, from grocery shopping and delivery, to prescription pick-ups, well-being phone check-ins, support and guidance accessing government benefits, and providing emergency funds.
