CBS Drama Person of Interest Shooting Here Wednesday

September 2, 2012

Residents of the North Heights take note – the CBS drama Person of Interest will be shooting in the area on Wednesday (9/5). We saw notices on Hicks and Henry Streets that cars must be moved by 10pm to avoid being towed away. Be sure to look for any postings wherever you may be parked as well.

Note that this is one of your humble publisher’s favorite shows. Special bonus if we spot Taraji P. Henson, Jim Caviezel and Michael Emerson winding down at Jack the Horse after the shoot.

The show has also shot in DUMBO and other parts of Brooklyn.

The show’s second season begins on CBS September 27.

Cranberry Street Poster: Don’t Feed the Rats!

September 1, 2012

Moments after reading one resident’s poster on Cranberry Street about the proper disposal of dog poop, we spotted another across the street about the War on Rats.

As any resident of Brooklyn Heights knows, we are in a constant battle with these vile creatures. That is clearly one of the motivations of the poster who takes a sarcastic approach here:


WATCH: Biomonde’s Johnny Falco whacks rats on the Brooklyn Heights Promenade


Be Hospitable: They are your neighbors!

Throwing your garbage on the street is a boon to your good neighbors, the rats, who are rapidly infiltrating our blocks and congregating on our street corners. But it’s inconsiderate to the rest of us.

The message is clear: Please despot [sic] your garbage in airtight containers! It’s the right thing — and the legal thing — to do!

Dog Poop Showdown on Cranberry Street

September 1, 2012

In the aftermath of last week’s Mom vs. Wack Jobs in Brooklyn Heights debate comes evidence of another controversy brewing in the neighborhood.

The issue: Dog owners who dump their pooch’s poo into someone else’s garbage. One resident of Cranberry Street has had enough and posted this quite polite and reasonable notice on the street:

To Whom It May Concer:
Thank you for picking up after your dog.
Now, what to do with that trash?
Please be responsible and respectful and:
1)take it home to your trash bin, or
2) place it in the public trash bin on the corner

Please DO NOT put it:
1) in your neighbor’s plastic recycling
2) in you neighbor’s paper recycling
3) in your neighbor’s trash
4) in the planters or tree pits on the street
5) ever so neatly on top of your neighbor’s trash
6) on the sidewalk

Thank you,
Brian @ 31

If this message does not apply to you, please disregard.

Is this an issue on your street?
