I'm pretty sure all most of the public housing back there has been bought out by a frum person. Inwood is one of the fastest growing neighborhoods around here now. And it's still relatively affordable. It's going to eventually fill on from across Burnside/Sheridan till Far Rockaway. It's already being bought out by frum, even pretty close to those projects.

The ne restaurant is also not too far from Inwood, Cedarhurst, and North Lawrence. They just have to advertise so people know they are there.
I cannot believe that at all..can you please get more info. regarding that? your saying you think a frum jew bought the Redfern housing buildings??? I cant believe that just yet..pls confirm
nothings impossible- the word itself says Im possible

Not the Redfern housing. That's govt owned and in NYC. Believe he's referring to the other housing that's in Inwood but also low rent/subsidized

Redfern is literally on the border. Google actually shows it as straddling the border, but who knows.

don gaucho. Didn’t hear very good reviews about that place.
 
Also the yeshivish yeshiva in young Isreal Far rockaway bought a warehouse on redfern Ave hoping to build a building there... :-X
It would be great to expand there but I hope it’s safe enough (read: it’s not)

Don Gaucho closed a while back. Only last few months...

What's better prime bistro or doma?
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Doma, no doubt.
Jury Duty: Nothing to do there but chill and write a TR. Kinda like the beach but missing the view and ocean breeze.

I noticed that kohls in green acres is closing on 4/13. If anyone needs any kind of throwaway stuff especially for Purim this is great opportunity. Like any closeout the whole store is marked down in one way or another.

Terro liquid ant bait works wonders. Has them marching to it like it’s the Teiva. Takes a few weeks and swapping out the traps but it does the trick.

WARNING: Check your receipts at Seasons!!

They have always been sneaky by posting sale signs under similar non-sale items. They also are notorious for charging non-sale prices on sale items. But they have gotten worse. It happened to me three times THIS WEEK. When I noticed and pointed it out to them, instead of adjusting the prices, they offered excuses. I just returned the items. All three times. And I was very careful that I took the item listed on the signs,

Trick is to get ahead if it by putting bait traps all over early in season. Once you're infested it's much harder to get rid of
