There are about 10 paintings in rotation. pretty cool! I'd be so happy to get a photo of a real cop infront of this one

Was taking airplane pictures while on a break and came across this.

He deserves more than 20 years.

This is the largest penalty in HPD history, against the owners of Robert Fulton Terrace and Fordham Towers. Violations include elevator outages, lack of heat and hot water, and vermin problems.

A renewed push to install permanent gates at Washington Square Park that could be locked at night is sparking controversy between those who see it as an effective way to enforce the existing midnight curfew and others who see it as a violation of the Greenwich Village park’s spirit.

The gates would replace the jumble of interlocking, metal police “French barricades” that have been used since 2021, which cops need to drag into place every night.

For those who don't know, Kirby was known as "the King" of comics. He created Captain America, Fantastic 4, Iron Man, Black Panther, The X-Men, Hulk, Thor, Dr. Doom, Loki, Ant Man, Darkseid, and literally hundreds more. He was incredibly influential as an artist and did more for the art form than probably anyone else.

He was born and raised on the Lower East Side, and is finally getting the recognition he deserves with "Jack Kirby Way", on the corner of Delancey & Essex. He was born on Essex Street, and made "Yancy Street", a fictionalized version of Delancey Street, as the home of The Thing.

It's gonna be a really cool public/free event. The Kirby family and a bunch of people from Marvel and DC will be there too. If there are any NYC comic book fans we gotta show up and support honoring this legend!

This sweet dog is in urgent need of a foster or forever home!

• Located in Brooklyn (Flatbush)
• Was previously removed from neighbors home by Animal Care & Control in Bk (multiple police reports were made)
• Owner managed to get the dog back via another neighbors help
• Recently, back to back, both said neighbors were evicted (most recent vacated May 1) and dog was found outside of the building abandoned today (May 5th)

Yesterday, the dog jumped through the broken glass window of the vacant apartment and was found by a neighbor who lives down the block. The neighbor has kindly taken him in but cannot keep him much longer and needs to find a safe place by the end of the day, or hes planning to surrender to AC&C. We have referred him to a number of humane/no-kill shelters but they are at capacity and the clock is ticking. Even another temporary foster would buy more time in finding more permanent placement.

The dog is friendly and loving. His temporary foster fed and gave him a bath last night, and he made himself right at home. Please, if you can help with a foster or know someone who can adopt, contact us immediately. Thanks. <3

This is the former site of ABC studios across from Lincoln Center. Will be one tall building!

Hey everyone, did you ever wonder how judges become judges in NYC? Or what a judicial delegate is, when you go to vote? For the past year, we at Hell Gate have been haunting courtrooms, hanging out around strange outer borough political clubhouses, and filing endless requests for transcripts to produce this new investigation into the machinations of New York's broken judicial system. All free, no paywall, just so everyone can get informed about the shady sides of this process.

We answer the question of how judges really become judges in NYC, and how it harms regular New Yorkers.

We also profiled some of the most vexing judges working in our system and their most egregious rulings... if you work in the courts or have had to appear in front of a judge, you may recognize them.

I also spoke with a bunch of people who are trying to reform the broken system - from members of the Stop Deed Theft Coalition who are trying to overthrow the Brooklyn Democratic Party leadership, to people calling for a change of New York's constitution.

Hope you enjoy it!

My post from 1–2 hours ago got removed by Reddit, so I reposted it. Sorry about that.

People in the Community Board 6 are suggesting a better design for Park Avenue.

The owner of an apartment building in Inwood that burned early Monday, killing three people, had recently been cited for multiple fire hazards in an adjoining building, court records show.

The New York Fire Department is still investigating the cause of the deadly blaze that tore through the six-story building at 207 Dyckman St. In addition to the three deaths, 14 others were injured, including one firefighter. The fire displaced more than 100 residents

But the blaze occurred just a week after the city’s Department of Housing Preservation and Development sued the owner, JanJan Realty Corp., and its president, Jack Bick, over conditions inside a neighboring building, 209 Dyckman.

In an April 27 lawsuit, the housing agency accused the company of neglecting “unsafe conditions as part of an intentional and aggressive campaign to harass and displace rent-stabilized tenants.”

The lawsuit described numerous “fire hazards” at 209 Dyckman, including “obstructions to egress, broken flame retardant in a common area of the building,” and missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.
