I saw a bobcat and a larger front loader working the corner of Albany and President this morning to clear the corners. I have no idea who sent them, didn't look like the city.

Nice initiative, though I wonder if $25 is enough to move the needle.

Being that after every snow storm the pedestrian corners usually are left unshoveled and is a huge pain for those with strollers, perhaps the Jewish community council should hire someone to keep the pedestrian corners of all the crossroads on Kingston Ave (from empire to Lincoln). Is this something that they would even do? It would definitely benefit the entire community.

Wow, you still have faith in the jewish community council

Right
Maybe some here want to expand the offering

Honestly, I don't think it's about the $25. Anyone doing this actually WANTS to do it for the public benefits, this initiative is just the kick in the proverbial rear end to get out and take action.

I didn’t shovel any corners because I prefer pain in the proverbial rear, over pain in my actual back

Why can't this be arranged for the snow as well?



Just a thought, why can't chaverim/shomrim take the initiative. I'm not trying to push it (no pun intended) to someone else. I don't have the capabilities to crowd source help.

Heard that bunch bagels is closing for good

Just heard that wholesome bagels is buying buncho

I’m gonna miss Bunch O’s food, Wholesome will probably bring their own menu over and just have two locations. If they made a Wholesome Deluxe that was higher quality, that could be nice too.

A second potato bagel location!

I don’t get the hype, and either I’ve become more sensitive or they’re putting more black pepper in the potatoes

The potatoes from BAB are much better IMHO

I haven't tried BAB but I haven't tasted any that are as good as Holesome's (though I would never consider having it on a bagel).

Full disclosure: I love black pepper.

Rebranded, but no upgrade to (currently dubious) Kashrus.
