Brooklynites have already embraced car- and bike-share services like Zipcar and Citi Bike.

Now, a new mode of shared transportation has come to the borough. On Monday, a startup called Revel Transit launched the city’s first-ever shared electric moped service.

Founders Frank Reig and Paul Suhey demonstrated the company’s shiny new Torrot models — one of the most popular brands in Europe, they say — at a press conference in Bushwick. continues on inside front page

The 11 Most Beautiful New Buildings in B’klyn GREENPOINT LANDING AT 7 BELL SLIP INCLUDED

By The Bridge Editors Brooklyn can often feel like one giant construction zone, thanks to its boom times. But here and there, when the scaffolding is peeled away, the result of all the noise and dust is revealed to be pleasing to the eyes — even a delight, in the best cases. Those buildings, expressive in design and uplifting for their neighborhoods, deserve recognition.

That’s the role of the 18th annual Building Brooklyn Awards, which took

place on Wednesday at the 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge. The winners comprised 11 recently completed construction and renovation projects, so we can offer a preview of what they look like — and what the judges say about them.

All told, the buildings “represent a great combination of large and small, public and private domains that really run the gamut of how development shapes Brooklyn,” states Rick Russo, acting president of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, which presents the see inside back page awards.

This building, called 325 Kent, on the Domino Sugar redevelopment site, won the award for iconic design.

Electric Moped-Sharing Comes to Brooklyn continued from page 1 A moped is legally defined as any low-powered motorcycle with an engine capacity no greater than 50cc, and a max speed under 30 mph. Revel’s mopeds weigh about 190 pounds and can be handled by men and women, young or old, the founders said.

Rides in Brooklyn And Queens Only To sign up, users must have a valid driver’s license, pay $25 for a background check and take a free short lesson in how to operate the vehicle if they have no experience on motorized twowheel transit.

to get the service “until we make sure New Yorkers want this,” Reig told the Greenpoint Gazette.

The startup has cleared the service with the NYC Department of Transportation, the local police precincts and elected officials, they said.

“Revel adds a missing

Revel Transit founders demonstrated how easy it is to rent and ride a moped at a press conference in Bushwick Monday. The city’s first-ever shared electric moped service works like Citi Bike.

Brooklyn Eagle photo by Mary Frost The team chose the three neighborhoods to start their pilot program because “Bushwick is where Citi Bike ends — it’s a transit desert,” Suhey said. He added, “On top of that, with the [upcoming] L-train shutdown we’re looking for new kinds of transit.”

Users can find and rent the mopeds using Revel’s cellphone app. The first 20 minutes of riding cost $4, and every minute thereafter costs 25 cents. Users can park their wheels — say, to eat or shop — for $3 an hour before riding them back to their home neighborhood. The fee includes insurance, and a helmet comes packed with each moped.

Suhey called the mode of transport the “missing link from New York’s transportation network.” He added, “We look forward to e-mopeds becoming an integrated part of the city’s transit system, especially in areas underserved by existing infrastructure.”

Reig said that San Francisco has about 700 shared mopeds in place, and there are “several thousand” in Paris and Berlin, where they are very popular.

And sorry Manhattan — the mopeds must stay within Brooklyn and Queens and they can’t be ridden over highways or major bridges. Users will be fined if they try this or if they park illegally. Late at night or early in the morning, Revel staffers will find all the vehicles and swap in fresh battery packs.

The vehicles are street legal because they are ranked as Class B, reaching a top speed of 29 mph.

(As such, according to the Department of Motor Vehicles, they can only operate in either the right-hand lane or along the shoulder.)

When the ride is over, the user has to park it in a spot that’s legal for the next 24 hours. This shouldn’t be too difficult, because the vehicles are parked perpendicular to the curb, requiring under 5 feet of open space.

The pilot program will run through December, after which Reig and Suhey will analyze what they did right and what has to change, they said. They plan to expand, but didn’t want to discuss what neighborhoods were next

piece to our city's transit puzzle at a time when it couldn't be more necessary,” City Councilmember Antonio Reynoso (D-Williamsburg-Bushwick) said in a statement.

Reynoso called the vehicles affordable and environmentally friendly.

New users automatically get $8 in riding credit (two free rides). In addition, Revel is currently offering users an additional $15 riding credit that expires on August 30. The promotional code is “RevelAndGo” and provides up to $23 total in riding credits, equivalent to five free rides.

Suhey has a background in chemical engineering and got his start in business “selling his grandmother’s hot pepper recipe,” he said in his bio.

Reig is a trained chef with experience at NYC restaurants including Gramercy Tavern.

The idea for Revel mopeds came about after their work at Gerson Lehrman Group organizing and moderating investment research events on clean transportation solutions.

Trump Consultant’s Brooklyn Australian-Style Breakfasts Brownstone Is Targeted Again Invade New York, Brooklyn A box labeled “American Fascism” was left at Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort’s brownstone in Carroll Gardens last Tuesday. One NYPD spokesman said it was investigated as a suspicious package but only contained a “God Bless America” pin. A second spokesman later said the box contained trash, according to Gothamist. Manafort, a lawyer and political consultant, was indicted by a federal grand jury last October on charges linked to his consulting work for Ukraine’s former pro-Russian government in 2014. He was charged with conspiracy against the United States, conspiracy to launder money, failure to report foreign bank and financial accounts and more.

He is now in jail awaiting his trial, which is slated to begin on July 31. According to The New York Times, Manafort never lived in the house at 377 Union St., but has commissioned renovations on it at various times. Neighbors have erected a satirical sign declaring it “The House that Brought Down a President,” and photographer Amy Finkel left a pumpkin carved with Robert Mueller’s likeness there last Halloween, Gothamist reported. If Manafort is convicted, the house would be subject to forfeiture.

Measles Outbreak in Borough Park, W’burg Cost the City Nearly $400K

A 2013 measles outbreak in the Hasidic Jewish enclaves of Borough Park and Williamsburg cost the city’s Department of Health and Mental Hygiene nearly $400,000, according to a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The outbreak began in March 2013 when one child returned infected from a trip to London. From then until June of that year, 58 people ranging in age from infancy to age 32 caught measles, according to Dr. Jennifer B. Rosen, one of the authors of the study.

Counting travel, testing equipment and more than 10,000 hours of work by 87 staffers, the Health Department spent $394,448 fighting the outbreak, said the study, which was quoted on Tuesday by the New York Post. The study cited “the insular nature of the affected community,” meaning the fact that Hasidic Jews rarely come into close contact with the larger community until they’re adults, as a reason the outbreak didn’t spread further.

Australian-style breakfasts have become increasingly popular in New York City, especially in neighborhoods like Greenpoint and Williamsburg, thanks to the proliferation of Australian-style cafes. Cafes like Two Hands, Ruby’s, Flinder’s Lane, Banter and Five Leaves feature sumptuous yet healthy breakfasts including organic porridge with raw honey and grass-fred cream, free-range poached eggs with local bacon and roasted broccoli, and many varieties of avocado toast. They serve breakfast all day long, according to The New York Times. This is not a coincidence, the Times says — in 2005, the U.S. signed a trade agreement that included a flexible new work visa specifically for Australians.

Several thousand Australians, most of them young adults, have been coming here every year since. “Breakfast in Australia can last until it’s time for a beer, if you work it right,” Nicola Palmer, a graphic designer from Canberra who lives in Williamsburg, told the Times.

Map Shows Native American Origins Of Many of Today’s Brooklyn Streets

Many of the biggest streets and avenues in Brooklyn began as Native American trails. A 1946 map titled “Indian Villages, Paths, Ponds and Places in Kings County,” published by then-Brooklyn Borough President Historian James A. Kelly, shows some of these streets, according to 6sqft.com.Among them are Flatbush Avenue, Fulton Street, part of Atlantic Avenue, Division Street in Williamsburg and Kings Highway. The map also shows the names of the tribes that originally lived in the area, such as the Gowanus, the Canarsie and the Winippague. The tribes’ locations are marked by teepees, despite the fact that teepees were used only by tribes of the Great Plains. In addition, the map shows the boundaries of the Colonial-era towns that now make up the borough of Brooklyn: Brooklyn (today’s Downtown area), Bushwick, Flatbush, New Utrecht, Flatbush and Gravesend, as well as the town of New Lots, which seceded from Flatbush in 1852. More insights into the map can be found at Viewing NYC.

Wednesday, Thursday, August 2,April 20186, 2016 Research has shown that air pollution from diesel exhaust is directly linked to increased rates of asthma, heart and lung disease, higher blood pressure and cancer. According to the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, children from North Brooklyn, southeastern Queens and the South Bronx are hospitalized for asthma at twice the city’s average.

One MANN’S Point of VIEW

Intro 157-c calls for the city to reduce the permitted capacity of each solid waste transfer station in Jeff Mann, Columnist Brooklyn’s Community District 1 (CD1) by 50%.

Southeastern Queens and South Bronx waste centers will be reduced by 33 percent below capacity.

Waste Equity Comes to North Brooklyn…

Or Does It?

Following nearly a decade of advocacy by North Brooklyn’s elected officials, leaders and residents, the City Council took a step toward citywide waste equity, passing Intro 157-c on July 18. The bill aims to move the city forward in its implementation of 2006’s Solid Waste Management Plan (SWMP), which addressed the inequitable amount of commercial trash processed in North Brooklyn, southeastern Queens and the South Bronx — home to 26 of the city’s 38 waste transfer stations.

Twelve years after then-Mayor Bloomberg signed SWMP into law, these three overburdened neighborhoods still process approximately 70% of the 38,000 tons of waste produced daily in the city.

This waste is moved by nearly 3,000 diesel trucks to transfer stations. In North Brooklyn alone, it takes around 1,750 truck trips to move 7,000 tons of garbage daily.

Great as these reductions sound, the devil re-

mains in the details. Currently, the total permitted capacity in Brooklyn CD 1 is 20,385 tons per day.

In 2017, these transfer stations received an average of 7,003 tons per day of waste. Do the math. A 50% reduction in capacity brings permitted waste processing capacity in North Brooklyn to 10,192.5, still allowing for a greater than 50% increase over the current 7,000 tons being processed daily, before a cap would take effect.

Questions about capacity should not take away from the work of elected officials and local activist groups, such as OUTRAGE, to get a waste equity law on the books. Similar bills were voted down over the years, following opposition from the city.

These bills have also faced fierce opposition from community leaders throughout the city seeking to keep waste processing out of their own communities. Intro 157-c becomes the first waste equity bill to pass the Council and sets the table for future reductions. It was primarily sponsored by Council Members Antonio Reynoso and Steve Levin.

The bill now makes its way to Mayor de Blasio’s desk. If signed, it will go into effect by the fall of next year.

Why BRIC’s New President Believes in Brooklyn

By Arden Phillips The Bridge

Brooklyn has a new cultural curator, events impresario and booster. BRIC, the Downtown arts organization, recently announced that Kristina Newman-Scott, currently the director of culture for the state of Connecticut, will be the Brooklyn nonprofit group’s new president.

Newman-Scott will be taking over for Leslie Griesbach Schultz, who stepped down as president in June after serving for 13 years, during which she greatly expanded its programming and moved the organization into BRIC House, its 40,000-square-foot home.

BRIC’s new president speaks of her future home with the zeal of a convert. “Brooklyn is literally the most dy-

namic city in the world,” Newman-Scott told The Bridge. “I’ve never lived there, so I’m definitely still learning, but anytime I went to visit friends, this fantastic mixture of authenticity and focus on culture has stood out. And that’s pretty amazing.”

Newman-Scott will have a sturdy stage to build upon. BRIC offers major music festivals including the BRIC Celebrate Brooklyn! Festival (in the summer) and BRIC JazzFest (fall) as well as the Emmy-winning BRIC TV network, art exhibitions and educational programs.

When the BRIC executive-search team reached out to Newman-Scott, she was skeptical at first, she told her hometown newspaper. But after finding out more about the organization, she realized it was a great fit. “In this one or-

Newman-Scott will lead a staff of more than 175 people.

Says Newman-Scott of her family of four: “We’re going to be rolling deep in Brooklyn.”

Photo by Chion Wolf ganization, every single area that they’re touching, producing, presenting,” she told The Bridge, “is in alignment with all the work that I’ve done in my career.”

Originally from Kingston, Jamaica, Newman-Scott was a painter during her time as a BFA student at Kingston’s Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts. Upon graduating, she moved to New England and went into arts management, serving as director of programs at the Boston Center for the Arts and as director of marketing, events and cultural affairs for the city of Hartford, among other roles.

What her recent posts have had in common, she said, is working “at the intersection of art, community development and government.” Newman-Scott believes that her new role will be liberating. “There’s not much agility in government,” she said. In order to be innovative, “you have to be open to taking risk and in government, risk is not a thing that anybody is comfortable with.”

Among her initial goals at BRIC is raising the organization’s profile and

expanding its reach. “I am committed to ensuring that in the future, there will not be one person in Brooklyn who won’t know what BRIC is,” she told The New York Times. “Everyone — whether it’s the guy that developed the building down the block or the woman who has the bodega — should feel like BRIC is the place that they get to see authentic Brooklyn through arts and culture.”

Newman-Scott will be breaking ground as “one of the very few women of color to lead a major New York cultural institution,” the Times noted. She’ll lead a staff of more than 175 people, 58 percent nonwhite, a notably high proportion for such an organization.

BRIC has operating revenues of nearly $16 million.

Newman-Scott and her husband, co-owner of Scott’s Jamaican Bakery in Hartford, plan to move to Brooklyn soon with their two daughters. “So watch out.

All four of us,” she said. “We’re going to be rolling deep in Brooklyn. We’re loving the idea of it.”

Coney Island CONEY ISLAND NATIVE History Day IS STEEPED IN to Celebrate NEIGHBORHOOD’S Immigrants

HISTORY

By Paula Katinas

Brooklyn Daily Eagle

The contributions that immigrants have made to Coney Island will be the centerpiece of a special celebration of the neighborhood’s history on Aug. 11.

The Eighth Annual Coney Island History Day will take place at two spots: Deno’s Wonder Wheel Park, located between Bowery Street and the boardwalk, and the Coney Island History Project at 3059 West 12th St. The festivities will run from 2 to 6 p.m.

The event will feature performances by Russian ballet dancers, a Haitian drummer, a Mexican mariachi band, a Chinese folk dance troupe and Italian opera singers. The performances will take place at the Dreamland Plaza Stage at 3 p.m. following an opening ceremony at 2 p.m.

The festivities will be hosted by Deno John Vourderis, of Deno’s Wonder Wheel Park, and Charles Denson, co-founder and executive director of the Coney Island History Project, a non-profit group that works to preserve the community’s history.

In addition to enjoying the music and dance performances, visitors will have the chance to share their fondest memories of Coney Island by talking about their experiences in the History Project’s Oral Archive History booth.

Coney Island has always serve as a melting pot in New York, according to Denson, who said Deno’s Wonder Wheel Park is a perfect illustration of the gifts and talents that immigrants have brought to the area over the past 120 years.

“The Wonder Wheel was saved by a Greek immigrant,” he told the Brooklyn Eagle.

The Wonder Wheel was built in 1920.

Deno D. Vourderis, who was born the same year as the ride was built, came to the U.S. from Greece at the age of 14. “He was one of 22 children,” Denson said. Vourderis purchased the Wonder Wheel in 1983 as a present for his wife.

Vourderis decided to revitalize the old ride and then built a park around it containing other rides for children and families to enjoy.

In 1989, the Wonder Wheel was designated as New York City landmark. The street outside the park was named in Vourderis’ honor in 2001.

Coney Island’s amusement park area has drawn immigrants for generations, according to historians.

One of the saddest days of Charles Denson’s life took place when he was a boy growing up in Coney Island and he watched through a fence as bulldozers tore down the last of the rides in Steeplechase Park. It was 1966 and the once-iconic amusement park was being demolished.

“It was a transitional time. Steeplechase Park was closing down. It was one of the saddest times

of my life, watching them tear the park apart,” Denson told this newspaper in a phone interview on July 30.

By the 1960s, Coney Island had become bleak.

Crime increased and residents walked down the street looking over their shoulders.

The only remnant left from Steeplechase Park is the Parachute Jump.

“I never gave up on Coney Island. I always thought it could recover,” Denson said.

Not only did Coney Is-

land recover, these days, it is thriving. The beach, boardwalk and Luna Park have become tourist Meccas. Earlier this year, the Coney Island Boardwalk was declared a scenic landmark by New York City. MCU Park, where the Brooklyn Cyclones play, draws crowds of baseball fans and the neighborhood boasts numerous restaurants. The Ford Amphitheater is a glorious addition to the ambience.

Denson, 65, has watched the renaissance

with pride.

Denson, a photographer and documentary filmmaker, is co-founder of the Coney Island History Project, a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the neighborhood’s history.

He has also written three books. “Coney Island Lost and Found,” was published in 2002.

“Wild Ride! A Coney Island Roller Coaster” came out in 2007 and Continued to page 0

Eye on Real E tate Take a Look at Bay Ridge’s Tucked-Away Treasures

By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

Short streets, long on charm.

Bay Ridge is full of them.

The southwest Brooklyn shoreline neighborhood has picturesque single-block streets and privately owned cul-de-sacs, some of which are pedestrian pathways rather than roads for cars.

Stroll with us in search of these tucked-away treasures, which are sprinkled throughout Bay Ridge from Cannonball Park by the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge to Owl's Head Park at the neighborhood's north end.

And see brooklyneagle.com for previous stories about other short streets in the neighborhood.

Come See Harbor View TERRACE, Where Tom Selleck’s ‘Blue Bloods’ House is Located

By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

This Harbor View Terrace house is where Tom Selleck's, inset,“Blue Bloods”character lives.

There's one tiny Bay Ridge street everybody in the neighborhood knows how to find — because it's where Tom Selleck's “Blue Bloods” house is located.

The street is Harbor View Terrace, which is sandwiched between Shore Road and Narrows Avenue and runs from 82nd Street to 80th Street.

The house's exterior appears in every episode of CBS TV's long-running series. It's the fictional home of New York City Police Commissioner Frank Reagan, the character played by Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winner Selleck.

In every episode of the show, Reagan's family goes to his house for Sunday dinner. An exterior shot of 8070 Harbor View Terrace introduces the scene.

The Colonial-style brick house is situated on the corner of 82nd Street. It was built in the 1920s.

In real life, the Harbor View Terrace property belongs to the Diocese of St. Maron-USA, city Finance Department records indicate. A Maronite bishop lives in it.

To give you an idea of what houses on this short but stunning street are worth these days, another brick Colonial-style house, 8053 Harbor View Terrace, sold for $3 million in June 2017, Finance Department records indicate.

The huge lot next door at 8047 Harbor View Terrace sold in February 2017 for $2.5 million, Finance Department records show. Its new owners have drawn up plans to construct a 3,584-square-foot single-family home, city Buildings Department filings indicate.

Many of the properties on Harbor View Terrace are stand-alone Tudor-style houses with lovely landscaping.

According to Finance Department records, the Tudor house at 8029 Harbor View Terrace sold for $2.8 million in May. Two tiny private cul-de-sacs that are parallel to each other have entrances on Harbor View Terrace.

One is Colonial Court. The other is Harbor Lane.

The backs of some Shore Road houses are at the ends of these cul-de-sacs.

Come See Charming Cul-De-Sacs off 72nd Street

By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

Did you know there's a street in Bay Ridge that's paved with red bricks?

That's a rarity in this day and age.

It's Bennett Court, a cul-de-sac that is tucked between Third and Fourth avenues and has its entrance on 72nd Street.

It is lined with a handful of charming, old-fashioned rowhouses.

• Parallel to Bennett Court, and very close by between Third and Fourth avenues, you find Ridge Court. It, too, is a cul-de-sac with charming rowhouses.

To give you an indication of what properties go for on these two tiny streets, 7107 Ridge Court sold for $860,000 in June, city Finance Department records indicate.

• A third Bay Ridge cul-de-sac with an entrance on 72nd Street is called 72nd Court. It can be found on the

block between Shore Road and Narrows Avenue.

It is a serene corner of the neighborhood. Several rowhouses on 72nd Court's odd-numbered side have porches with beautiful awnungs.

ABOVE: Bennett Court is paved with red bricks, which is unusual in 21st-century Brooklyn. RIGHT: Bay Ridge is full of cul-de-sacs if you know where to look. This is the 72nd Street entrance to one of them, which is called Bennett Court.

Welcome to Louise Terrace, which is a Tudor mecca.

Come See Terrific Tudors on Louise Terrace in Bay Ridge

By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

Tudor City!

That's what Louise Terrace, one of our favorite short streets in Bay Ridge, looks like.

The houses on either side of the tidy terrace are lined up in perfect, Tudor-accented rows.

It's one of three tiny streets with entrances on 70th Street.

Though each street is just a block long, these aren't dead ends. They aren't private streets with restricted parking, like so many of the neighborhood's picturesque short streets.

Louise Terrace runs from 70th Street to Mackay Place on the block between Narrows Avenue and Colonial Road.

To give you an idea of what its homes are worth, city Finance Department records show that 7005 Louise Terrace sold for $980,000 in June. The seller had paid $175,000 for it in an estate sale in 1992, Finance Department records indicate.

The house next door, 7003 Louise Terrace, sold for

$1.055 million last year, Finance Department records show.

By the way, Mackay Place, a two-block-long street between Shore Road and Colonial Road, is also very picturesque.

Flags fly outside several Mackay Place homes near the entrance to Louise Terrace, a sight which pleases our patriotic soul. (Yes, a person can be both a member of the media and a patriot. The two things are not mutually exclusive.)

An old-fashioned, stand-alone house at 66 Mackay Place has a lawn and terrific trees.

The other two short streets we want to show you are between Colonial Road and Ridge Boulevard.

Each one runs from 70th Street to 71st Street. The two are parallel to each other. Here they are: • Ridgecrest Terrace actually does rise a bit higher in its middle and descend at its two ends, as its name suggests.

It is lined with classic 20th-century rowhouses that you see in many Southwest Brooklyn neighborhoods.

To give you an idea of what they're worth, 7013 Ridgecrest Terrace sold for $950,000 in an estate sale in July 2016, Finance Department records indicate.

This is Ridgecrest Terrace at the corner of 71st Street.

B’klyn DA: Low-Level Marijuana Prosecutions Down 91 Percent

By Rob Abruzzese INBrooklyn

The mayor and the police commissioner announced in June that the city will have a new policy when it comes to marijuana arrests, but Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez has attempted to lead the way on the issue.

His office announced on Friday that low-level marijuana prosecutions have dropped by more than 91 percent between January and June of this year.

Gonzalez said that due to the success of the new policy the Brooklyn DA’s Office will continue to decline to prosecute most marijuana cases.

“Aggressive enforcement and prosecution of personal possession and use of marijuana does not keep us safer, and the glaring racial disparities in who is and is not arrested have contributed to a sense among many in our communities that the system is unfair,” Gonzalez said. “This in turn contributes to a lack of trust in law enforcement, which makes us all less safe.

“That is why, earlier this year, we expanded our existing non-prosecution policy to include smoking cases,” he continued. “That pilot policy proved to be effective in dramatically reducing the number of low-level marijuana cases processed in court, freeing resources and strengthening trust in the justice system. I intend to maintain this approach and to only prosecute the most egregious offenses, which will help ensure fairness and equal justice.”

This change in policy is a response to studies that show that people of color are much more likely to be arrested for marijuana possession despite the fact that white people are more likely to partake.

One study conducted by the Police Reform Organizing Project found that people of color were 90 percent more likely to be busted for possession in New York City from January to June of this year.

NYPD executives have insisted that they are merely responding to calls of complaints about marijuana as the reason certain neighborhoods are policed more heavily than others. However, a report published by Politico in March found no such correlation in the data.

For instance, the predominantly Hispanic neighborhood of East Harlem received 304 marijuana complaints and had 683 arrests. Meanwhile, the predominantly white neighborhood of the Upper East Side had 123 complaints and only 63 arrests, according to Politico.com.

To combat this racial disparity in Brooklyn, Gonzalez’s office has gradually expanded its policy of not prosecuting low-level cases to include people smoking in public.

The Brooklyn DA’s Office still prosecutes marijuana cases that it considers a threat to public safety, such as driving while smoking or when people are “creating a genuine nuisance,” such as smoking on the subway or in a school yard where kids may be exposed. It will also prosecute cases involving violent criminal activity.

Taken together, the number of cases that were accepted for prosecution this year declined from 349 in January to 29 in June — a drop of 91.6 percent. Of the cases that were prosecuted between January and June 2018, 84 percent resulted in a dismissal (by either an adjournment in contemplation of dismissal or by other means), according to the Brooklyn DA's Office.

The DA’s Office pointed out on Friday that it began to implement its policy before the city and the NYPD announced that it would make changes. It predicted that once NYPD implements its new protocols, the number of cases prosecuted will drop further.

The DA acknowledged that past marijuana cases, which would no longer be prosecuted under his new guidelines, could still have consequences today.

He explained that his Justice 2020 Initiative is working on a new program for vacating and sealing some past marijuana convictions.

FAITH IN BROOKLYN

Third-Grader from Gravesend Wins Prayer-Based Art Contest

A student at Our Lady of Grace Catholic Academy in Brooklyn’s Gravesend neighborhood was named a first-place winner in the 2018 “Try Prayer! It Works” Contest.

Family Rosary sponsors this national competition that encourages students to express their faith through art, poetry and prose. Each year, children and teens from Catholic schools, parishes and other Catholic organizations across the globe utilize their creative skills to illustrate a different faith-based theme.

The 20th annual contest, which attracted nearly 800 entries from across the U.S., was themed “Mary, the New Eve.” The winner from Brooklyn is Lisa Olech, a

Acclaimed German Youth Choir Will Sing At Zion Church In Heights Zion German Evangelical Lutheran Church will host 40 young people from Germany, as their ensemble gives a concert here on Wednesday, Aug. 8.

The award-winning youth choir, Vivida Banda (“Rasselbunde” in German, or “A Gang of Rascals”) has begun its U.S. tour this summer. The first performance of the tour by the choir, which hails from St. Peter’s Church in Weinheim, Germany, was at the University United Methodist Church in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The ensemble presented a varied program of contemporary and classical songs in German and English.

Vivida Banda is considered the most advanced choir of the St. Peter’s Church Singschule (song school).

Children begin singing with the Singschule from the age of one and continue through age 21 in a graded choral program. They learn music of all epochs and genres. The only requirement is that the music is of high quality. Vivida Banda regularly sings in services and concerts in and around Weinheim, which is near Mannheim, near the Rhine and Neckar rivers.

Director Anne Langenbach founded Vivida Banda in 2009, and won the prestigious ECHO Klassik award for promoting young people in 2013. In recent years, Vivida Banda has sung at Rosengarten, Congress Center Mannheim and on ZDF television. This biennial tour is the ensemble’s first one to the United States.

The Aug. 8 concert at Zion German Evangelical Lutheran Church (125 Henry St. in Brooklyn Heights) begins at 7:30 p.m. Admission is free; donations are welcome.

A Brooklyn girl created the winning work in the third grade art category. third-grader at Our Lady of Grace Catholic Academy. Her prize was in the art category.

The Try Prayer! It Works! Contest focuses on family faith enrichment in the home. The goal is to bring the Catholic Church’s teachings to life around the dinner table with discussion prompts, reflection question, prayer ideas and creativity.

Students from kindergarten through

12th grade creatively depicted in various forms how their families are united through prayer and faith.

This year the theme was Mary, the New Eve. Students from kindergarten through 12th grade creatively depicted in various forms how their families are united through prayer and faith.

Entries were judged on content, ability to capture and interpret the theme, artistic and technical proficiency, and adherence

to rules.

Each year, in the United States, three winners are chosen per grade, one each from three categories: Art, Poetry and Prose. First place winners are awarded $100, and the sponsoring organization earns $100. All the teachers involved are given a memento and each student who participated a Certificate of Appreciation.

Family Rosary was founded in 1942 by Father Patrick Peyton, C.S.C.

Religion in the Original Eagle:

Churches Eulogize Politician William Jennings Bryan

By Francesca Norsen Tate Religion Editor

The Brooklyn Eagle of August 3, 1925 reported that noted and controversial politician and moralist William Jennings Bryan was eulogized in several churches around the borough.

“William Jennings Bryan dead has awakened in America a determination that assaults on religion must cease,” declared Canon William Sheafe Chase in his sermon at Christ Protestant Episcopal Church on Bedford Avenue.

Another Episcopal cleric at Church of the Redeemer, the Rev. Thomas J. Lacey, said that Bryan “was noble of heart and of even temperament, unruffled in defeat and singularly free from personal animosities.”

Noting this although Bryan’s personal magnetism didn’t always him win his causes, but that his gifts were in social betterment rather than in political prominence. Dr. Lacey also noted that “the attitude of the Episcopal Church is ‘decidedly liberal’ to the theory of evolution. It is only those men hostile to faith that have selected evolution as a sort of veiled weapon to undermine and destroy the foundations of religion.”

Church of the Redeemer no longer exists, having been deconsecrated in 2012 and the property sold to a real estate developer.

NEED TO KNOW What Accumulates In a Carpet ?

• The five-second rule is a myth: bacteria can live after four weeks on carpet.

To make a carpet brighter, sprinkle salt onto the carpet and let it stand for an hour before vacuuming it up. Salt is also effective in removing muddy footprints.

The 11 Most Beautiful New Buildings in Brooklyn

1. Historic Restoration: 158 Clifton Residence

The row house at 158 Clifton Pl. in Clinton Hill is an 1887 row house undergoing gut renovation with recycled materials and energy conservation uppermost in mind.

The front facade uses a process of burning the exterior of the wood, a Japanese technique known as shou sugi ban, which protects the wood from the elements. The process allows use of recycled wood that would otherwise be unsuitable for exterior use, according to the awards program. The back of the house uses recycled slats from the Coney Island boardwalk. All told, the residence meets New York’s passive-house standard for energy conservation. Architect: Paul A. Castrucci; builder: Blue Line Construction.

2. Education: District 20 Pre-K Center

This 18-classroom building in Dyker Heights accommodates 324 students and is one of the largest buildings constructed under the city’s universal pre-K initiative.

“Both inside and out,” say the judges, “this lively adaptive re-use project brings a community facility with an engaging, welcoming presence to a unique corner of Brooklyn’s evolving west Bensonhurst manufacturing area and the surrounding residential neighbor-

hood.” Constructed in a former warehouse built in 1925, the building uses a distinctive greyand-yellow cladding that establishes an interplay of pattern and color that’s carried over to the building’s interior. Architect: Doban Architecture; builder: Citnalta Construction.

3. Open Space: Brooklyn Bridge Park Boat House

The new Boat House, which sits along the Pier 5 uplands in Brooklyn Bridge Park, is designed to provide open-air storage for kayaks and other boats, along with a multi-purpose room and restrooms, all safely situated above potential floodwaters. “The structure is build to adapt to each hour and season, appearing opaque or translucent, rugged or elegant, depending on the time of day, wrapped with metal grilles creating light and shadow through the day and glowing at night when backlit,” say the judges. Architect:Architecture Research Office; builder: PJS Group.

4. Retail: Supreme Store The former ice-cream-truck storage garage in Williamsburg was converted to a retail space for Supreme, the intensely popular skateboarding shop and streetwear clothing brand. The conversion included the construction of an elevated, free-standing skate bowl.

The judges appreciated how the new store “kept its old structure and graffiti on the masonry walls to incorporate Supreme’s street culture and vibe,” while the main facade “was restored with the same

Il Centro, the city’s first and only Italian-American cultural community center, was built to conserve energy in myriad ways.

Among the techniques are sprayfoam insulation, light sensors, lowflow faucets, and floor-to-ceiling windows to take advantage of natural light.

The buildings, made of brick and steel to reflect the neighborhood’s former industrial character, “each provide unique design elements while sharing a common architectural language, with expansive use of natural light, private courtyards, trees and paths,” the judges say. The red brick, according to the architects, “is slightly irregular and hard fired in a carousel kiln,” giving it a rich and varied tonality. Architects: Handel; builder: L&M Builders Group. continues on back page

6. Residential/Single Family: Porchouse

Porchouse is the renovation of an 1879 wood-frame, single-family home in Bedford-Stuyvesant (garden view above). “The historic details of the original home are combined with a smart, practical, modern approach to a dwelling,”

say the judges. The interior of the home was opened up, taking advantage of its 20-ft. width, allowing a view of the back garden from the front door. Skylights were added over double-height spaces and the front facade “was renovated to preserve one of the fast disappearing wood frame row houses.” Archi-

8. Residential/Mid-rise: The Brooklyn Grand

This mixed-use building on Grand Street in East Williamsburg is newly designed to look old, with many subtle touches.

The red brick structure, which contains 71 rental units and 10,000 square feet of commercial space, has a base that is “capped with a historical replica cornice that grounds the building and separates the two upper floors,” say the judges. This keeps the scale of the building congruent with industrial warehouses

affordable units, “designed to foster a social lifestyle,” say the judges, with more than 40,000 square feet of amenities, including an indoor pool. “Strategies have been employed to emphasize a residential scale and demonstrate sensitivity to the surrounding community,” say the judges, with features including setbacks, contextual window patterns, and a low-rise retail wing with “a unique floating roof.” Architects: Dattner, GHWA; builder: New Line Structures.

One of the most visually dramatic structures to rise lately in New York City is 325 Kent, with its square-donut silhouette and copper and zinc cladding. The residential rental building (522 market-rate units; 104 affordable) is the first to open on the Domino Sugar refinery site, a multibilliondollar, 11-acre, mixed-use community in Williamsburg being developed by DUMBO-based Two Trees Management.

“The building possesses a striking silhouette with a textured, geometric facade, incrementally stepped to provide a visual connection between the existing low-rise neighborhood, the landmarked Refinery Building and future waterfront development,” say the judges. Architect: SHoP Architects; builder: 325 Kent Construction LLC. See more views of the building here and neighboring Domino Park here.

11. Economic Impact: Building 77, Brooklyn Navy Yard

Building 77 is the transformation of a 1-million-square-foot, World War II-era structure into a modern facility for light manufacturing in the ever-expanding Brooklyn Navy Yard. The renovation created openings in portions of a windowless facade and refurbished all systems, creating a brighter, technologically up-to-date space for commercial tenants to modify to their needs for office, design and production work.

The ground floor was built to accommodate food producers and vendors, while the outside entranceways were redesigned to foster public gathering.
