Naming of Long-Awaited Court Officer Training Facility Reignites Controversy

The family of Sgt. Thomas Jurgens, one of the court officers killed on 9/11 now represented in the new academy’s name, stands for the ceremony.

By Christina Carrega Brooklyn PHOENIX

A training facility for court officers across the state opened in Crown Heights last Monday — a deal that was nine years in the making.

The corner of St. John’s Place and Classon Avenue — once the location of a Catholic school where nuns lived — is now home to the 60,000 square feet of classrooms, auditorium and gym of The Captain William H. Thompson, Sergeant Thomas Jurgens and Sergeant Mitchel Wallace Court Officers Academy.

The facility was named in honor of the three court officers killed in the line of duty during the terror attacks on 9/11 at the World Trade Center.

The academy will be the primary training center for more than 4,000 Unified Court System Court Officers, who guard all the state’s courthouses.

Officers will go through a four-month basic training that includes instruction in criminal, civil, family and constitutional law as well as arrest procedures. The academy also provides training with weapons including baton, pepper spray and firearms. Officers will learn proper use of force, first aid, CPR, crowd control and other skills deemed necessary by the courts.

The state’s Chief Judge Janet DiFiore said

the new facility will play a “critical role” in safeguarding the courts and will aim to be the “public face of the court system.”

“Even with the best training, we are asked to make instantaneous decisions [regarding] things that occur — that’s what Harry, Mitch and Tom did over 17 years ago [on 9/11],” said Chief Michael Magliano with the Department of Public Safety.

“There is no greater call in life [than] when a man or woman lays down his or her life in the service of others. The names inscribed on this plaque never wanted the spotlight and always put the welfare [of others] above themselves.”

“They must be highly prepared to handle a wide range of situations, including life-threatening emergencies that require courage and decisiveness,” said Judge DiFiore.

“We now have a customized facility that will enable our team of top-notch instructors to pursue and instill excellence in our court officers through a broad range of training activities.”

Across the city for the last two years, courtrooms — in Civil, Family, Housing, Criminal and Supreme courts — were unable to open because of short staffing of court officers. While the ceremony was underway, 11 courtrooms

were closed due to short staffing, according to Dennis Quirk, the New York State Court Officers Association president.

During the last two years, more than 60 court officers suffered injuries while on the job either by inmates or members of the public.

Quirk, along with Patrick Cullen, State Supreme Court Officers Association president, organized several protests at each courthouse in Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan and the Bronx to bring awareness to the ongoing issue.

“By next spring, along with the opening of a new Court Officer Academy, three new classes of recruits — totaling an additional 380 officers — will be assigned to the courts,” Lucian Chalfen, a spokesman for the Office of Court Admin-istration, told the PHOENIX last month.

Quirk has spearheaded the facility’s opening since the disgraced Gov. Eliot Spitzer and former Chief Judge Jonathan Lippman were in office but declined to attend the event on Monday.

“The academy was supposed to be named for three court officers killed during 9/11 and two others killed in the line of duty. They changed that and put two photos in the building,” said Quirk, referring to Court Officers Francis Carroll and Albert Gelb, whose names were not in-

cluded in the building’s final title.

“The other men who were named, they do deserve it — but those two other men too deserve to be on that building. This was a total disgrace to their families. So no, I did not attend.”

Carroll was the first court officer killed in the line of duty during a robbery in progress in Midtown in 1973. Gelb was killed in 1976 in front of his home on 109th Street in Queens, days before he was slated to testify in a mob-related trial.

Quirk said that though the facility is open, it’s still unfinished because the dormitory portion of the building — where the nuns were housed — was not renovated and is a part of the lease.

“What takes nine years to renovate the building? If a court officer lives far away now, they have to get put up in hotels that the state will have to pay for instead of having a dormitory on the site,” said a disappointed Quirk.

Chalfen said the facilities’ two buildings are completed with a third reserved for expansion opportunities. He added that there plans underway for a memorial wall where all slain court officers will be remembered.

Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams

It was an evening dedicated to celebrating and honoring the innovative leaders of healthcare throughout the borough.

The Brooklyn Daily Eagle and its publisher Dozier Hasty hosted the well-attended Champions and Visionaries of Healthcare event at Dyker Beach Golf Club on Monday, Dec. 3, recognizing doctors and healthcare associates from Brooklyn’s finest hospitals and caregiving facilities for their innovative work.

The overall theme of the night was advancing Brooklyn’s health and social care system, with the central message being that no one has to cross over a bridge or go through a tunnel to seek the finest health care available.

The quality of healthcare in Brooklyn is unsurpassed, and you might say that Brooklyn’s healthcare facilities are healthier than ever as doctors from various hospitals impressed throughout the night.

“The Brooklyn Eagle group is really proud to bring you a night of what we hope will be an inspiration and an education,” Hasty said. “We hope you will share with us in our pride for these honorees who are truly champions and visionaries in health care.”

EBrooklyn Media Director of Events Shanie Persaud welcomed guests and thanked the major sponsors for their support. “Together we can make Brooklyn

healthier, one hospital, one patient, one stop at a time,” Persaud said.

PBS announcer Tom Stewart served as the master of ceremonies. Elected officials, community leaders and honored recipients attended the evening networking event that included food, drink, and a chance to visit the more than a dozen informative exhibits provided by healthcare representatives, before enjoying the dinner and awards ceremony.

The Innovator sponsors of the event were The Brooklyn Hospital Center and Maimonides Hospital Center.

The leadership sponsors were Northwell Health, Zwanger Pesiri Radiology, Catholic Charities and Diocese of Brooklyn and Queens, NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital, NYC Health + Hospitals/Coney Island Hospital, Mount Sinai Brooklyn, Infinity Realty and Weng School NYC Inc. Along with the health care providers there were representatives from Bay Ridge Vision Center, Accessible Dispatch, Optimum Health Physical Therapy, and Cancer Can’t Kill Love, a non-profit that was founded by Home Reporter editor Meaghan McGoldrick. continued on page 2

continued from page 1 Among those attending were Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams, City Councilmember Mark Treyger, Assemblymembers William Colton and Mathylde Frontus, Brooklyn Conservative Party Chair Fran Vella-Marrone, Brooklyn Reform Party Chair Bob Capano and former Republican Party Chair Craig Eaton.

Treyger said that one of his proudest efforts occurred after hurricane Sandy hit the region in 2012. Treyger said that he was elected to the city council in 2013. “I remember reading in the local papers how the private healthcare institutions in other parts of the city with affected areas were receiving money from FEMA, but out our local hospital, Coney Island hospital, did not get much help or assistance whatsoever. I actually want to thank every single employee of Coney Island Hospital because we did not lose one life during the aftermath of Sandy.” He added that it was one of his first efforts as an elected official to help the hospital receive the needed help and assistance.

Institutions honored were Maimonides Heart & Vascular Institute, Maimonides Cancer Center,

Northwell Health, Brooklyn Mobile Stroke Treatment Unit of the New York-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital, CAMBA and Community Care of Brooklyn.

The keynote speaker was Herminia Palacio, deputy mayor, NYC Health Services. She stressed the fact that there should be cooperation among healthcare providers so that they could work together and learn from each other in order to obtain the best results possible. “We are very proud of the moment we are enjoying right now,” Palacio said. “People like our honorees tonight are committed to working together in making our city healthier and making our city the healthies city in America.”

Kenneth D. Gibbs, president of Maimonides Hospital Medical Center, announced that “Maimonides has been ranked among the Top 10 health systems in the country for superior survival rates.”

Award-winning physician Dr. Sushma Nakra, associate chair-OB/GYN NYC Health + Hospitals/Coney Island, received a “rock star” applause as she took the stage to receive her award. “I love to work at Coney Island Hospital,” Nakra said. “I’m not looking for the spotlight, I just want to do my job and I’m glad that I can

continue to do it.”

Stewart described honoree Reverend Monsignor Alfred LoPinto, vicar for human services, Diocese of Brooklyn, and president & CEO, Catholic Charities Brooklyn and Queens and Affiliate Agencies, as “having spent a lifetime in pursuit of social justice who has continually demonstrated his care and compassion through his deeds.”

LoPinto, said he was grateful to the healthcare professionals. “At Catholic Charities, we care for people from infancy through alternative care in our nursing homes,” Stewart said.

“The one we know is how important it is to have quality health care available to people in this borough.”

“What kills more people than breast cancer,” asked Dr. Steven Mendelsohn, CEO-Zwanger-Pesiri Radiology. “The answer is heart attacks because they are unexpected and they can’t be screened for,” he answered.

He spoke of all the strides made in mammography.

Dr. Vasantha Kondamudi, executive vice-president, network physician executive The Brooklyn Hospital Center was honored for her efforts to help, The Brooklyn Hospital Center go from an “F” Leapfrog rating to an “A,” making it the only hospital

in Brooklyn to receive the grade and one of only two hospitals in New York City to receive an “A” grade.

Gary Terrinoni, president and CEO of The Brooklyn Hospital Center, congratulated Kondamudi on her award. “I’d like to congratulate honorees Vasantha Kondamudi and nurse manager Rosemary Fiore. If you were to ask me who would be the best representative of the Brooklyn Hospital Center now and hopefully in the future it would be those two individuals.”

Other honorees included Dr. Riley J. Williams III, orthopedic surgeon, Hospital for Special Surgery Medical director and head team orthopedic surgeon for the Brooklyn Nets; Lisa Schiano-Denis, executive director-Catholic Charities Saints Joachim & Anne Nursing and Rehabilitation Center; Dr. Stefan Balan, medical director, Mount Sinai Brooklyn Ambulatory Infusion Center and Dr. Jennifer Plotnick, founder and general dentist-Grand Street Dental.

And then to find those who took me outside the norm of the medical philosophy and told me to make a lifestyle change, helped me realize that it was not my DNA but my dinner that caused me to deal with some of these diseases that impacted my life.

Brooklyn must lead the way on disease reversal,” he added.

Memory Care a Component of Assisted Living Aging brings about many changes, including some that may compromise seniors’ ability to remain independent. In such instances, many families consider assisted living facilities for their aging relatives.

More than 835,000 Americans currently reside in assisted living communities, according to the National Center for Assisted Living. While communities and homes provide various services, one service in particular may be needed for seniors with Alzheimer’s disease, other dementias or memory problems. Memory care units are separate facilities that cater to people with dementia or other memory issues.

According to the senior residence referral and resource guide A Place for Mom, memory care is a distinct form of long-term skilled nursing.

Also called special care units, memory care facilities provide 24-hour supervised care for individuals. This care is often carried out in a separate wing or floor of a residential facility or community.

Memory care facilities aim to provide a safe and secure environment for residents. This means limiting entry or egress to other areas of the facility for those who may have trouble navigating and remembering where they started out.

The Alzheimer’s Association notes that six in 10 people with dementia will wander and become disoriented.

This is dangerous for the individual and others. Memory care units often have alarms and ‘wander guard’ precautions in place to make sure residents cannot roam unsupervised and risk injury.

Another goal of memory care is to provide a stress-free, structured lifestyle that has set schedules and routines, states Brookdale Senior Living.

This can help keep distress minimal and make for more comfortable and happy residents.

In addition, memory care units offer programs that help slow the progression of dementias and cultivate cognitive skills. Fitness exercises, games, specialty food programs, activities, and much more may be offered to make residents more comfortable.

Memory care facilities include common spaces for socialization, meals and activities.

“Alzheimer’s patients must maintain their activity, walking, interacting with music and art,” says Lory Bright-Long, MD, CMD, of the American Medical Directors Association. “We have to awaken the senses so that the memory can have a hook.

This is accomplished in the memory care setting.”

It is important for those considering assisted living and nursing home facilities to inquire about specific memory care units if a loved one requires this environment. Start the search at APlaceForMom.

How to Cook for People with Various Dietary Needs Breaking bread with friends and is the perfect recipe for a fun Visionaries Champions nd family day or evening. However, even the most experienced party hosts may struggle with ways toofcater to their guests’ various dietary restrictions.

According to Food Allergy Research Education organization, as wards&2018 many as 15 million Americans have food allergies. Research by a team of allergists at the McGill University Health Centre found that 7.5 percent of Canadians report having at least one food allergy.

In addition to food allergies, hosts also must consider diets, food sensitivities, religious preferences and lifestyle choices (i.e., vegetarianism or veganism) when planning dinner party menus.

HE LTHCARE

Eric Adams A Note on Veganism from Brooklyn Borough President

So what is the accommodating host or hostess to do?

Etiquette experts say that while it is important to keep guests’ preferences in mind, it is impossible to accommodate everyone. But hosts can take certain steps when planning a menu that might make it easier to cater to an array of eaters.

• Host a buffet or family-style meal. Buffets and family-style services provide plenty of options for guests to enjoy. Think about offering at least one item from all of the food groups, including vegetables that will fit the bill for vegetarians, vegans and those who may be avoiding grains.

One cold day in January of 2016, I witnessed my mother inject herself with insulin to deal with her Type 2 diabetes. Despite several years of being on this injection routine, the grimace on her face clearly showed that she had never gotten used to the sharp pain. When I left her home, I sat in my car and had a conversation with God. “I am not a doctor,” my plea began, “but I wish I could do something for my mother to address her diabetes.”

As the saying goes, be careful what you wish for.

A few months later, I was told that I too was diabetic, and that my diagnosis came with far more severe symptoms than what my mother was showing.

I was losing my eyesight, there was irreversible nerve damage in my hands and feet, I had high blood pressure and high cholesterol, and I had developed a small ulcer from years of stress. The poor health that had imperiled my mother’s life was now threatening to derail mine.

As I have shared in previous messages to you, I visited five doctors and they all told me that I would be on medicine, including insulin, for the rest of my life. Only once I looked beyond their prognoses did I discover the power to heal myself; after transforming my diet, all of my symptoms reversed in three months.

With my Type 2 diabetes in remission, I turned my attention to my mother, hoping to try this method of recovery with her. The approach needed to be tailored, of course, since I did not want to create unnecessary complications for a 79-year-old woman; although my mother was taking three drugs to control her diabetes, her A1C level was still dangerously high. As such, I sought out a doctor who believed in nutrition-based healing and understood that chronic diseases can be reversed when the body is no longer poisoned with poor dietary choices.

I found the right partner in Dr. David Dunaief, who was opening his practice in Brooklyn Heights.

Dr. Dunaief took my mother as a patient and immediately put her on a tailored food regiment to assist her body in reversing the various chronic diseases from which she was suffering, some of the same ailments

• Stick to simple recipes. The more ingredients in each dish, the more explaining you will have to do to guests who might be watching what they eat. Herb-crusted grilled chicken, roasted colorful vegetables in a ratatouille, a bean salad, and a threecheese gourmet mac-and-cheese are some simple crowd-pleasers.

• Keep some trendy foods on hand.

Canarsie Holiday House Offers Smiles, Tradition And New Additions

The Canarsie Christmas house, all alight. ebrooklyn media/ Photos by Steve Solomonson

By Jaime DeJesus INBrooklyn

A Brooklyn holiday tradition continued with much fanfare.

On Sun., Dec. 2 at around 5 p.m., Brooklyn Democratic Party Chair Frank Seddio and his family hosted the annual lighting of their extravagant holiday display. Dubbed Canarsie’s Christmas house, the home at the corner of Flatlands Avenue and East 93rd Street sports around 50,000 lights and numerous other decorations.

“It was fabulous,” said Seddio. “Even though we had rain most of the day, it stopped when we were ready to start the two-hour program. We had a slightly smaller crowd because of the rain, about 1,000 people.”

Despite the rain, the vibes were great and spirits jolly.

There were musical performances by the Chorus of P.S. 115 and the

Isabella Wein Vaccaro with Santa.

choir of Holy Family Church. And of course, there was a special appearance by Santa Claus. There were also new additions to the winter wonderland in Canarsie.

“We have a whole brand new display and set-up this year that’s really unique,” Seddio said, “with Mr. and Mrs. Claus sleeping after all his hard work.”

The displays also feature a new Santa Claus in the workshop, a hot air balloon that goes up and down around 80 feet, and a skating rink populated by Smurfs.

Seddio said that the festive holiday home was almost featured on the ABC show “The Great Christmas Light Fight,” a competition special featuring decorations from all over the country, with the winner taking home a prize. Scheduling conflicts prevented it from coming to fruition.

“We watched the show and saw the people who won and we definitely would’ve won,” Seddio said with confidence.

The display, which lasts throughout the holiday season, means a lot to the community and Seddio gets great pleasure in keeping it going.

“Some people ask me why I do this,” he said. “It’s to look in the eyes of a five year old and see the joy and the awe. That’s the best Christmas present you can get.”

Art GOWANUS SWIM SOCIETY HOLIDAY ART MARKET Holiday season is officially upon us, which means it is time to support local artists.

They’re teaming up again with local bar Dirty Precious to give you a fun, boozy, art filled Sunday Funday.

There is an assortment of handmade items from their own Swimmers and they have invited some local artisans to join in spreading the holiday cheer.

When: Sunday, December 9th, 1 p.m.

Where: Gowanus/Dirty Precious (317 3rd Avenue) ARTIST TALK WITH VITTORIA CHIERICI Come by for an afternoon conversation with Italian artist Vittoria Chierici, whose work, a series of paintings in conversation with Raphael’s fresco “The School of Athens,”

When: Sunday, December 9th, 4 – 5 p.m.

Where: Crown Heights/Five Myles (558 St. Johns Place) SCHOOL OF PAIN The exhibition School of Pain draws on the work of Leopold von SacherMasoch and Marquis de Sade, the first two thinkers of economies of desire. Sade with his ironic demonstrations may be seen as a predecessor to the attitudes of twentieth century modern and conceptual art. The libidinal economy, unleashed by modern reason, turned out to easily adopt such subversions in the constant mutations of advanced

capitalism. The originally subversive imagery of Sade’s mechanised, accelerating and coldly executed desire therefore turned out to be a very literal image of our time. The exhibition poses the question of whether the related but oppositional position of Masoch, based on suspension and humor, couldn’t be the answer to both a return of contemporary art from theory to the sensual, but also meaningful art’s attitude towards an overly alienated world. The exhibition features work by artists Than Hussein Clark, Anna Daučíková, Chiara Fumai, Mark Ther and BRUD (Aditya Mandayam) and is curated by Michal Novotný, Director of Centre for Contemporary Art FUTURA in Prague.

When: Tuesdays-Saturdays through December 16th, 12 – 6 p.m.

Where: DUMBO/A.I.R Gallery (155 Plymouth Street) EMPATHY In an increasingly polarized political climate, empathy has proven to be a challenging emotion to conjure for many Americans.

Both the public and its leaders seem to show little interest in understanding the viewpoints and experiences of others across the divide. The disruptive rhetoric of the current administration, and of media pundits, has only exacerbated the disjuncture in this country.

This exhibition features artists who reveal a capacity for empathy, a willingness to reflect on another’s point of view or to understand those whose backgrounds differ from their own.

Through photography, video, sculpture, drawing, embroidery, installation, performance, and virtual reality, the artists engage in projects that employ deep listening, compassion, care ethics, and other empathic skills.

Without the synthetic, the rote, the mannered, the cautious, the mercenary, the logical. Inclination towards still. Liberated assumptions, hovering reference. Delight in the role of delivery. Pause, option, breath, freedom.

Friend as unguarded recipient.

Where: DUMBO SUBVERT CITY Conceived by gallery artist Vincent Como, this exhibition brings together a group of five artists, each of whom are engaged in varied yet distinct forms of painterly heresy.

Apophatic meditations on the modern canon which endeavor to honor tradition by undermining, over-saturating, or inverting it. From the subtle to the sublime, that which was once deemed non-objective

by Malevich, has become radicalized into a planar lucidity of the material object-in-itself.

Where: DUMBO/Minus Space (16A Main Street) PENELOPE UMBRICO: MONUMENT Penelope mbrico’s MONUMENT explores the monolithic state of current technologies in relation to their obsolescence. Umbrico begins with the idea that all technologies–including the electronics we use at home and in the workplace– are in effect “black boxes” whose contents are largely incomprehensible to end users. Although we tend to think of screens as invisible and we never see the workings of our technologies, almost everything we learn and know these days is mediated through the filters of technology. Umbrico aims to demystify the black-box device and to engage the public in creative modes of transforming and visualizing the electronic detritus that accumulates in our homes and in landfills.

Brooklyn Eagle Founder Isaac Van Anden’s Brownstone Sold for $12 Million (ABOVE) Welcome to the Promenade, Brooklyn Heights’ endangered crown jewel.

(INSET) This is Brooklyn Eagle founder Isaac Van Anden, who lived at 218 Columbia Heights in the 1870s.

Brooklyn Heights Brooklyn Heights, perhaps the best known of all the Brooklyn neighborhoods, owes its name to the Dutch (with a tweak from the British). And the last Ice Age. Some 50,000 years ago, when the climate warmed up after the last Ice Age, the melting ice was trapped by the hills until, several thousand years later, the water broke through, cutting a swath that created the Narrows, Upper New York Bay, the East River, the Harlem River and Long Island Sound.

The events left a high palisade towering above the East River.

The indigenous Indians who lived in the area named it Ihpetonga, meaning “high, sandy bluff.” We call it the Heights, now topped by a pedestrian deck renowned as the Promenade.

It was a site noted by Henry Hudson, who came exploring in 1609. Hudson reported back to his Dutch sponsors with rave reviews of the New World.

And the Dutch came by the boatloads, this time not to discover, but to settle.

Most of them put down roots in New Amsterdam on Manhattan island, but some preferred the area across the narrowest part of the East River. It was flatter than hilly Manhattan, with more fertile land for farming and waters for fishing and for transporting their produce.

In 1645, a village was formed there, when the West India Company, trying to lure colonist to the new land, offered farmers small parcels of land as a “free loan,” as long as they cultivated the farms for 10 years and then paid the company one-tenth of what they produced. The Dutch had called the area Clover Hill, for the thick foliage of the trees they found there. But soon the name Bruijkleen came into use, from bruijk (to use) and leen (loan). The name Bruijkleen Colonie was given to this tract of land that was among the first settled. The name, according to some, was not “coined” for the village, but it described what this tract of land was intended to be – a homestead.

The village, its center located on then-Fulton Avenue, came to be called Breuckelen, presumably after the village of the same name in Holland. The earliest mention of the name Breuckelen in the records of the colony of New Netherland is a contract dated 1646. When the English came in possession of New Netherland in 1664, they Anglicized the name to Brookland, a close counterpart of Bruijkleen as the latter was pronounced by the Dutch, Brooklane. The English probably believed the Dutch name had some connection with the “broken land,” its original significance as the marsh or brook land.

Various names and spelling followed: Breucklyn, Breukland, Brucklyn, Broucklyn, Brookland, Brookline, and others, until the end of the 19th century, when it settled into the present-day Brooklyn.

The neighborhood played a key role in the Revolutionary War. At the southern end of what is now the Promenade was the house called the Four Chimneys, where Gen. George Washington set up his headquarters to keep an eye on the British coming into the harbor. Nearby was one of several defenses he set up, Fort Stirling. The Fulton Ferry Landing is whence Washington’s troops sneaked away from the British during a stormy night and foggy morning in late August 1776, surviving to fight another day (actually another seven years).

As the 19th century began, Hezekiah Beers Pierrepont, who had owned the Four Chimneys mansion, started buying up lots to expand his real estate holdings. He took about 60 acres of the most desirable property. He divided his property into 25-by-100-foot lots for sale and other wealthy landowners followed suit, advertising the area to potential buyers as “the nearest country retreat.”

It was Pierrepont who helped Robert Fulton establish his steampowered ferry company, which started service on May 10, 1814. The new accessibility of Brooklyn Heights soon established it as “America’s first commuter suburb.”

During the Civil War era, in the neighborhood’s Plymouth Church of the Pilgrims, Rev. Henry Ward Beecher preached his abolitionist views and the church served as an Underground Railroad depot.

The Brooklyn Bridge, opened with fanfare in 1883, brought more people to Brooklyn and that meant a need for more rapid transit, "people movers," first electric-powered streetcars called trolleys, then buses, then the subway. The first underwater subway tunnel from Manhattan opened on Jan. 1, 1908.

In 1947, power broker Robert Moses pushed a plan for the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway to cut through Brooklyn Heights. But residents fought the plan and won concessions. The highway was moved four blocks west and redesigned into a double-level roadway topped by the building of the Promenade with its magnificent views of the Statue of Liberty, New York Harbor and Lower Manhattan – and, more recently, Brooklyn Bridge Park. (In 1864, well before the Promenade was constructed, Abraham Lincoln took in the view and said: "There may be finer views than this in the world, but I don't believe it.") The southern half of the Promenade opened in 1950, the northern half in 1951.

The Landmarks Preservation Law of 1965 made Brooklyn Heights the first neighborhood to be designated a historical district and legally protected from overdevelopment. The district is bounded by Cadman Plaza West and Old Fulton Street on the north, the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway on the west, Atlantic Avenue on the south.

The neighborhood itself stretches from Old Fulton Street near the Brooklyn Bridge south to Atlantic Avenue and from the BrooklynQueens Expressway to Court Street and Cadman Plaza West.

Wanna Know the Latest Brooklyn Heights House Prices?

By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

Brooklyn’s most expensive houses are here — on the Heights.

Of course you remember actors Jennifer Connelly and Paul Bettany’s widely reported $15.5 million Brooklyn Heights Historic District rowhouse purchase, which they made in May. This deal is tied with photographer Jay Maisel’s 2015 acquisition of 177 Pacific St. in Cobble Hill as the highest-priced house purchase in the entire borough.

In recent months, there have been other big-ticket landmarked Brooklyn Heights house sales, too. We want to tell you about some of them.

Many took place before city Department of Transportation officials’ September announcement that their preferred plan for dealing with Brooklyn-Queens Expressway reconstruction between Sands Street and Atlantic Avenue would be to tear down the fabled Promenade and in its place construct a six-lane highway to serve as a BQE replacement for many years.

If the Transportation Department carried out this proposal, the roughly 153,000 vehicles that would travel each day over this replacement highway would unleash epic amounts of dust and noise in Brooklyn Heights. Area property values would take a hit.

Neighborhood residents and civic groups who oppose the Promenade’s proposed demolition have suggested alternatives to the Transportation Department, our Brooklyn Eagle colleague Mary Frost has reported.

In late November, the Brooklyn Heights Association presented agency bigwigs with a proposal conceptualized by Marc Wouters Studios for a temporary two-level bypass to be constructed at the edge of Brooklyn Bridge Park west of the BQE. For now, the Promenade’s fate is shrouded in uncertainty.

As a momentary digression, stroll with us through the surrounding neighborhood and take a peek at several of its treasured historic houses.

DO YOU KNOW THE WAY TO ISAAC VAN ANDEN’S HOUSE?

A brownstone Isaac Van Anden built in 1871, whose address is 218 Columbia Heights, sold for $12 million last summer.

Here’s the backstory concerning the history of the house.

Van Anden founded the Brooklyn Eagle in 1841 with Henry Cruse Murphy.

Stories in the Eagle’s electronic archives describe Van Anden’s brownstone as a four-floor mansion on a 150-foot-deep lot that stretched to Furman Street. The stories were written long before the construction of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway and the Promenade, which sliced a big piece off the waterfront side of 218 Columbia Heights’ lot.

Van Anden died in 1875. After that, his sister Susan Van Anden Swift owned 218 Columbia Heights, the old Eagle stories indicate.

Swift died at 218 Columbia Heights in 1909. She was 91 years old. She bequeathed the brownstone to her cousin, Susan M. Van Anden.

In 1910, the cousin sold the house.

BANKERS AND ORPHANS

At some point after that, 218 Columbia Heights became the residence of Richard S. Ramsay, who was a former president of East River Savings Bank. He lived there until his death in 1931.

After that, it belonged to his half-sister, Ione May Spears. When she died in 1932, she left the house and everything in it to the Orphan Asylum Society of Brooklyn.

Eagle stories published in 1935 describe an auction of the rowhouse’s contents, which included Ramsay’s desk from his job at the bank and paintings by various artists. Auction proceeds went to support an orphanage at 1435 Atlantic Ave. Now, back to present-day Brooklyn Heights.

The sale of 218 Columbia Heights closed in August.

An LLC with Steven Eisenstadt and Jennifer Eisenstadt as members bought the brownstone from the estate of Robert S. Rubin, who had owned the property since 1989, city Finance Department records indicate.

According to a Real Deal story about the recent house sale, Steven Eisenstadt is the CEO of Cumberland Packing Corp., the Brooklyn-based maker of Sweet’N Low. Rubin was an investment banker and philanthropist.

AUSTIN TOBIN’S MONROE PLACE BROWNSTONE

In September, an LLC with David R. Welch as manager bought 13 Monroe Place for $11.5 million, Finance Department records show.

The deed gives Welch’s address at SJP Properties in Times Square.

The firm develops office complexes and residential buildings. Welch has been its chief financial officer since its 1981 founding.

The Monroe Place brownstone sold for more than its asking price, which had been $10.5 million, online postings indicate. Joan Goldberg of Brown Harris Stevens had the listing.

BROOKLYN HEIGHTS HISTORY The early inhabitants of what is today Brooklyn Heights included the Canarsee Indians and Dutch farmers, who settled in the area in the mid1600s.

The neighborhood played a pivotal role in the Revolutionary War by housing George Washington’s headquarters and providing a location for American soldiers to slip across the East River after the British invasion.

It wasn’t until Robert Fulton then launched the first steam-powered ferry service in 1814 that Brooklyn Heights faced tremendous development.

Fulton’s ferry brought residents home over the East River in less than 15 minutes to “Manhattan’s bedroom.” Two years later, Brooklyn Heights’ streets were planned and laid out. (continued on next page)

— Continued from page 32INB — The seller, an LLC with Alexandre Mars as manager, had purchased 13 Monroe Place for $7.75 million in 2012, Finance Department records indicate.

According to Clay Lancaster’s book “Old Brooklyn Heights, New York’s First Suburb,” 13 Monroe Place was built in 1851.

An Eagle story published in 1952 said 13 Monroe Place was the home of Austin Tobin, who was the executive director of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.

Tobin, who held that job from 1942 to 1972, spearheaded the development of the original World Trade Center, which was destroyed in the 9/11 terror attack. He also was in charge of financing and developing metro New York’s four major airports.

Tobin died in 1978.

A HOME IN A COZY CUL-DE-SAC

In May, an LLC with Lee Bergstein as authorized signatory bought 6 Grace Court Alley for $8.325 million, Finance Department records show.

It’s a carriage house on a cozy cul-de-sac whose entrance is on Hicks Street.

In early 2017, Brown Harris Stevens had the listing for 6 Grace Court Alley and the asking price was $10 million, online postings indicate.

Later that year, Compass became the listing broker and the asking price was trimmed to $8.8 million.

The sellers, Rohit Sah and Ruchika Sah, had purchased the carriage house for $2.7 million in a 2011 estate sale, Finance Department records show.

Grace Court Alley is a 19th-century mews, in other words a street lined with horse stables that have been converted to housing.

A posting on the Place Matters website says the Remsen family, whose home was nearby, originally had stables on the tiny dead-end street.

Later, it served as a stable alley for nearby Grace Church and then for residents of mansions on Joralemon and Remsen streets.

When cars became trendy in Brooklyn Heights, the stables became garages and housing for chauffeurs.

BROOKLYN HEIGHTS HISTORY The area was advertised as the “nearest country retreat” for the Manhattan businessman and recognizing the opportunity, landowners like John Hicks, Jacob Middagh Hicks, John Middagh, Henry Remsen and Teunis Joralemon divided and sold their farms and the standard 25 by 100 foot Brooklyn Heights lots were born.

Residential construction quickened in the 1820s and continued until the turn of the century, beginning at the northern side of the neighborhood.

After the Brooklyn Bridge opened in 1883 and the Interborough Rapid Transit Company arrived in Brooklyn in 1908, the elegant neighborhood could no longer remain a retreat for

JACK NICHOLSON AND MERYL STREEP FILMED ‘HEARTBURN’ HERE

In October, an LLC with Stephen Skoller as assistant treasurer bought 15 Garden Place from Jane Marvel Garnett for $8.1 million, Finance Department records show.

The red-brick Greek Revival rowhouse was built in the 1840s.

Kevin J. Carberry Real Estate had the listing, online postings indicate. The asking price was $8.5 million.

The new owner of 15 Garden Place plans to do some interior renovation, city Buildings Department filings indicate.

A 1985 New York Times story says 15 Garden Place was used in a film shoot for “Heartburn,”which starred Meryl Streep and Jack Nicholson.

The late Nora Ephron wrote the film’s screenplay, which she based on her similarly named, semi-autobiographical novel about her marriage to Watergate journalist Carl Bernstein.

At the time of the film shoot, 15 Garden Place belonged to Daniel and Eileen Morris.

MILLIONAIRE MANUFACTURER’S HENRY STREET HOUSE

In September, an LLC with the buyer’s attorney, Alison Hirsch, as authorized signatory, paid $6.5 million for 261 Henry St. in an estate sale, Finance Department records indicate.

The Greek Revival brick rowhouse was built in the 1840s, Lancaster’s book “Old Brooklyn Heights, New York’s First Suburb” says.

According to a posting by listing agent Karen Heyman of Sotheby’s International Realty, the asking price had been $7.25 million.

The new owner wants to build a horizontal addition onto the two-family house and turn it into a single-family home, Buildings Department filings indicate.

Over the years, notable residents of 261

Henry St. included Charles Elwell Perkins and his wife, Grace P. Perkins.

At the time of his death in 1923, he was the chairman of the board of a Brooklyn woolen-goods manufacturer called the J.T. Perkins Company, Eagle stories from the 1920s say. He had been a director of the Kings County Trust Company and the Irving Bank-Columbia Trust Company.

He left a net estate of $5.7 million, which was considerable wealth in the dollars of that era.

He willed much of the money to the Brooklyn Orphan Asylum Society — sounds familiar, right? — the Brooklyn Home for Children and numerous other charities.

Mrs. Charles E. Perkins, as Eagle stories usually called her, continued to live at 261 Henry St. for many years. In 1932 she was elected chairman of the Woman’s Auxiliary of the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

A BELOVED AD EXEC’S HOUSE WAS SOLD

In July, Elan Katz and Inna Katz bought 11 Cranberry St. for $7.4 million from William G. Daluga Jr. as Trustee of the Christoper N. Wall Declaration of Trust Dated March 13, 2015, Finance Department records show.

Chris Wall, who died last year, was a muchadmired advertising exec at Ogilvy & Mather, an Eagle story published in August says. His most recent job had been vice chairman of Ogilvy North America.

A colleague nicknamed him “The Great Wall” because he was 6 feet 10½ inches tall, the Eagle story notes.

A plaque on the facade of the Flemish-bond brick rowhouse says it was constructed in 1840 for a ship’s chandler named Mott Bedell.

A February 1878 Eagle story about his funeral says Bedell died at 11 Cranberry St. He was 84.

He had been a ship’s captain early in life and “made a considerable fortune at this calling,” the article notes.

After retiring from his seafaring job, Bedell became a “commission merchant” on South Street in Manhattan, the story says.

wealthy commuters and upper-class residents moved out.

Their mansions and row houses were divided into apartments and boarding houses and several hotels were built, including the St. George, once the largest hotel in New York City.

The completion of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway then changed Brooklyn Heights forever. Whole sections of brownstone row houses were demolished for its construction but the Brooklyn Heights Association, one of the country’s oldest civic associations, pushed for the construction of the now internationally-popular Promenade.

In 1965, Brooklyn Heights became the first New York City neighborhood to be designated as both a New York City historic district and a national landmark.

As Interest Rates Rise, Brooklyn Real Estate Financing Favors Climbing The Capital Stack

By Matthew Dzbanek, Director – Capital Services

Dusan Racic, Analyst,

Investment Research

As the U.S. economy continues to strengthen, the Federal Reserve is positioned to continue raising interest rates for at least another year.

As rates seem to be rising faster than rents, the real question becomes how do landlords refinance out of their existing mortgages? While it has indisputably become more complicated to finance commercial real estate projects, a borrower can nimbly refinance a maturing loan by tapping into structures higher up on the capital stack, such as mezzanine financing or preferred equity.

A red-hot labor market and muted inflation has the Fed confident that the economy can withstand the impact of higher rates, with gross domestic product – the broadest measure of goods and services produced in the U.S. – growing at a 3.5% annual rate in the third quarter. While that’s below the second quarter’s 4.2%, which was the strongest since the third quarter of 2014, it was sharply above the first quarter’s 2.2%. A stronger economy has led to a surge in demand for housing in rapidly growing markets, such as Brooklyn, where new jobs are being created amid a growing population.

The Fed’s policy-making arm has raised short-term interest rates three times this year, with one more penciled in for its December meeting and at least another three forecasted for 2019. This should put more upward pressure on rates and eventually lead to even higher borrowing costs on consumer and business loans.

The 10-year Treasury yield, which influences everything from mortgage rates and small business loans to state/government bonds and corporate loans, has been hovering near a 7-year high. Meanwhile, interest rates on fiveyear multifamily loans are roughly 75-100 basis points higher than where they were a year ago.

From 2016 through 2017, Brooklyn saw 301 transactions consisting of 515 properties totalling $4.3 billion in gross consideration, according to Ariel Property Advisors’ Investment

Research Division. These properties likely used financing for the acquisition, with the 5-year maturity being the most common term. Private lenders have been extremely active in Brooklyn due to the large amount of appreciation and rental growth in that market, and borrowers have been actively taking advantage of that.

It has therefore been a busy year for Brooklyn because as loans mature, investors typically choose to refinance or sell their properties, and the buyers of these assets often seek financing to fund their purchases. Indeed, Brooklyn, the most populous borough, has dominated commercial lending activity this year and September was no exception, snaring a 40% share of New York City’s 374 transactions, according to the Commercial Observer, citing the latest data available from lending database Actovia.

The Capital Stack Solution For most of the past decade, record low interest rates fostered feverish demand for multifamily properties in Brooklyn, which, in turn, sent prices substantially higher. Prices have held steady and even appreciated in some areas of New York City, but Brooklyn was the only region that witnessed depreciation in the third quarter, with the average price per square foot dropping 1.2% to $367, according to Ariel Property Advisors’ “Multifamily Quarter In Review.” For our exclusive report, click on http:// arielpa.com/report/report-MFQIR-Q3-2018 Commercial real estate principles teach that an investor should not purchase an asset with a cap rate, or an investors’ rate of return, below the cost of their debt. However, this principle holds up less with value-add projects because today’s cash-on-cash return, the cash income earned on the cash invested in a property, is less important than stabilized cash-on-cash.

Over the past few years, many sales in the borough were purchased at sub-4% cap rates with the hopes of being able to increase rent and add value to the properties. Private lenders were very active in this segment of the market, providing higher leverage loans than the properties current cash flow supported in order to provide the capital needed to complete these projects.

David Baruch,

Senior Analyst – Investment Research

As interest rates increase, the biggest constraint in Brooklyn is debt service. So, the big question for these property owners is how they can increase their cash flow enough to support a loan to take out acquisition financing. For example, and using basic numbers, if you purchased a rent stabilized building below a 4% cap rate with a 75% leverage private loan, you would need to increase your net operating income (NOI) by approximately 60% to refinance out all of your debt in today’s environment.

For investors who got extremely aggressive during the upswing of the market, selling might not be the right move as buyers might not be as aggressive as they once were. Refinancing is likely their best option. With lenders aware of this problem in a rising rate environment, they are starting to get more creative in solving these concerns. This is being done by adding more structure to their loans, such as master leases, holdbacks for vacant units, burn off personal guarantees, underwriting to lower debt con-

straints, etc. In some cases, they are allowing borrowers to take mezzanine financing or preferred equity to fill up the capital stack.

Despite higher financing costs, Brooklyn’s multifamily market has fared quite well in in 2018. In the year through October 31, the borough saw 118 sales that included 220 buildings for a total consideration of $2.57 billion. Versus the same period in 2017, these figures represent increases of 19.2%, 13.4% and 106.6% in transaction, building, and dollar volume, respectively. The spike in dollar volume can largely be attributed to the $904.61 sale of the Starrett City Portfolio in the first half of 2018.

Now more than ever, utilizing an experienced mortgage broker is crucial as they can peruse an array of options for a borrower to attain an ideal financing package that best suits their business plan. While interest rates are on the rise, there are many ways to maneuver the current financing environment and moving up the capital stack is one of the best strategies around.

Ariel Property Advisors’ Capital Services Division provides owners, investors and real estate professionals with custom-tailored financing solutions.

Leveraging strong relationships across numerous local, national and international capital sources, we find the capital structure that best suits a client’s specific needs.

Brooklyn Eagle cover from Dec. 4, 1936

ON DEC. 4, 1936, the Brooklyn Daily Eagle reported, “London, Dec. 4 (U.P.) — Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin faced a historic session of Parliament today and threw a clear-cut challenge to King Edward VIII to drop his plans to marry Mrs. Wallis Simpson or abdicate. There could be no mistaking the meaning of the blunt country squire who heads his majesty’s government. Baldwin informed [House of] Commons that a morganatic marriage is contrary to English law and any one the king marries automatically becomes queen. Since the Government has taken an irrevocable stand against Mrs. Simpson becoming queen, the king would have no choice but to give up his throne and empire if he persists in marrying her. There were strong indications that the strong-willed monarch intends to accept the challenge and fight back, carrying the issue to his people and risking losing the dominions which, Baldwin said, are opposed to the marriage. The king has sent Mrs. Simpson into seclusion with friends in France while he faces his crisis alone. It was said on the highest authority that he intends to defy Baldwin, the conservatives, the clergy and the press and form a government headed by the brilliant, erratic Winston Churchill.”

ON DEC. 5, 1952, the Brooklyn Eagle reported, “Enroute Home With Eisenhower, Dec. 5 (UP) — President-elect Eisenhower started home tonight after getting the ‘feel’ of the Korean war in a top-secret three-day tour which included conferences with top commanders and chow with fighting men in sight of the battle line. ‘Much can be done to improve our position,’ he said. ‘Much will be done.’ The former five-star general was convinced that American aid to South Korea should be increased, but he was equally convinced that the war should not be allowed to spread. And he added that he arrived at ‘no panaceas, no trick ways of settling any problems.’ … Eisenhower’s trip, from his departure from his New York headquarters right to the battle line, was conducted behind a curtain of secrecy.

News of it was not released until after he had left Korea and his Military Air Transport Service Constellation was safely out of the reach of Communist fighters.”

Brooklyn Daily Eagle cover from Dec. 8, 1941

ON DEC. 7, 1941, the Brooklyn Daily Eagle reported, “Tokio, Dec. 7 (Sunday) (U.P.) — Japan indicated early today that she stands on the verge of abandoning efforts to achieve settlement of the Pacific crisis by diplomatic negotiation at Washington. At the same time warnings circulated that Soviet Russia — with an estimated Far Eastern army of 840,000 — has swung in with America, Britain, China, Holland and the British Dominions in a united front against Japan. The press, bellwether of Japanese opinion, thundered that the moment of supreme sacrifice was at hand. A government spokesman said Japan’s ‘patience’ may be tried only a little longer.

The following day, the Eagle reported, “Washington, Dec. 8 (U.P.) — Casualties on the Hawaiian Island of Oahu in yesterday’s Japanese air attack will amount to about 3,000, including about 1,500 fatalities, the White House announced today. The White House confirmed the loss in Pearl Harbor of ‘one old battleship’ and a destroyer, which was blown up. Several other American ships were damaged and a large number of Army and Navy airplanes on Hawaiian fields were put out of commision, the White House disclosed. It reported at the same time that American operations against Japan were being carried out on a large scale, resulting already in the destruction of ‘a number of Japanese planes and submarines.’”

The Eagle also published President Franklin Roosevelt’s address to Congress, which read in part, “‘Yesterday, Dec. 7, 1941 — a date which will live in infamy — the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan. “‘The United States was at peace with that nation and, at the solicitation of Japan, was still in conversation with its Government and its Emperor looking toward the maintenance of peace in the Pacific. Indeed, one hour after air squadrons had commenced bombing in Oahu, the Japanese Ambassador to the United States and his colleague delivered to the Secretary of State a formal reply to a recent American message. While this reply stated that it seemed useless to continue the exisiting diplomatic negotiations, it contained no threat or hint of war or armed attack.’”  ON DEC. 6, 1942, the Eagle published the following notice: “In Memoriam. FOLEY — In loving memory of my son, First Class Seaman WALTER CHARLES FOLEY, killed Pearl Harbor, December 7, 1941. First anniversary mass at 10:45 a.m., Holy Name R.C. Church, Prospect Park West-Prospect Avenue. Loving MOTHER.” Foley, an 18-year-old Brooklynite, died aboard the USS Oklahoma along with 428 other crew members during the Japanese attack on Hawaii. Last week, the Pentagon announced that his remains had been identified through DNA samples. More than 72,000 service members remain unaccounted for from World War II.
