I pulled these off this morning's circular feeds. Match the shelf tag before you pay.

I don’t take the 2 or 5 back home often but I’m glad I did this time. A lovely sunset with the Manhattan skyline in the distance. I had no idea you could see the World Trade Center AND Chrysler Building from out here

My pictures definitely will not do the library justice, as I had to leave out several sections of seating and shelving to protect patron anonymity.

But do come on down!

Full disclosure: I’m a Bronx resident on New York Public Radio’s Community Advisory Board, a volunteer group that gives listener feedback to WNYC, WQXR and Gothamist. One of my goals on the board is making sure Bronx voices are part of that feedback.

Last week’s ICE shooting in Marble Hill, with a five-year-old in the back seat, has a lot of us thinking about how immigration stories in our neighborhoods get told. We’re holding a public forum on immigration coverage next Wednesday, Oct 21 at 6:30pm over Zoom. What stories are they missing? What do they get wrong about immigrant communities in the Bronx? Feedback goes to station leadership.

Albanian specialty store/deli on Middletown Road and Edison ave has not been open for over a week.

Super nice owner who never seemed to have much business. Anyone ?

Didnt have milk last time I was there.

ICE IS IN THE WAKEFIELD SECTION OF THE BRONX ON MONTICELLO AVE

thought a transformer blew or something because the whole building shook for a second and then sirens started going off the block and now i am too tired to function today

grateful! I love trees and my neighborhood is very green. I can literally walk at 1 am because I feel safer here than any other neighborhood because I know my neighborhood got my back. My first ever apartment is here.

Hi all! I hope all is well. Does anyone know if there’s a healthy food market anywhere in the Bronx with somewhat organic / low calorie food / snacks? Preferably by Arthur Ave, willing to try Pelham parkway / morris park as well. I can’t find anything!! I would love to do food shopping while meal prepping 🫩

My wife and I are both renters in the east Bronx, interested in buying a 3 bed condo as our first (forever?) home, there's none in our area unfortunately, just expensive houses. But we found two elsewhere that we are torn between.

We both work union jobs (nurse and secretary) in a South Bronx hospital and plan to stay until we're vested in our pensions.

Both condos have plenty of accessible transit nearby and are almost a wash financially when it comes to the monthly payment.

Condo #1... Galaxy towers in Hudson county NJ (west New York) overlooking Manhattan. $4650 monthly payment (mortgage, interest, HOA/utilities, taxes, etc).

1. Pros: highrise style condo with amenities and utilities all bundled into the HOA. Unit is renovated and ready. Doorman, two pools, elevator, laundry, gym, spa. Living in NJ but working in Bronx gives us a little extra raise (no city tax). Plenty of transit outside the building.

2. Cons: commute is 80-90 min to job in South Bronx. Hopefully we can Eventually pivot to working in Manhattan or NJ for a shorter commute. Parking space is $120/month. HOA is high ($2000) but includes all utilities and amenities. Its a 2 bedroom but we have to spend between 2k-4k upfront to turn the dining room into a third bedroom (for our oldest daughter).

Condo #2... Shorehaven condos in the Bronx (near clason point area). Also on waterfront, overlooking Manhattan and LaGuardia. $4200 monthly payment (mortgage, interest, taxes, HOA), utilities separate.

1. Pros: commute is 45-50 min. gated townhome style community with pool, gym, parks, laundry, walking paths. Nyc ferry right nearby for a nice cruise into Manhattan (instead of boring subway). Unit is renovated and ready. This is a 3 bedroom, so no need to put up a wall/door to make another room like the galaxy unit. Bruckner shopping area nearby. HOA is $600, includes 1 assigned parking space.

2. Cons: HOA doesn't include utilities but includes amenities, parking, maintenance, etc. not sure how the Public middle/high schools are nearby.

I know this is a long shot, but I wanted to try anyway. My little brother lost his white Champion backpack. It has a blue Soccer Sweatshirt (the same one in the image) inside. It was lost at Prospect Ave & Westchester Ave, at the bus stop for the Bx17 towards Fordham Plaza on October 1st around 4-5 PM. An award can be arranged if anyone who sees this happens to have it.

I moved to the South Bronx in February from Washington Heights and I see that there are no public trash cans anywhere in the Bronx! Why?!! This is ridiculous

I’ve been wanting to join one that’s more local to me. One where I could go to either draw, talk about art, or one that does museum visits or gets together to do figure drawing. One that is ideally friendly to both digital and traditional art.

Hey New Yorkers!

I'm Finn, 22, from a small town near Frankfurt, Germany. We sometimes call Frankfurt "Mainhattan" because of its skyline, so I guess I've already had a little practice with skyscrapers. Just on a much smaller scale. 😄

I've never been to the US, but I've always been fascinated by the people, their openness, the music, fashion, and culture. And New York has always been my dream.

There's something almost paradoxical about it. You're surrounded by so many people, yet nobody really cares what you're doing. Everyone is living their own life, following their own path. There's a certain kind of freedom in that which I've always found fascinating.

I'm not dreaming of some glamorous lifestyle. Just taking the subway to work, exploring the city afterward, meeting people, and experiencing everyday life would mean the world to me.

A little about me: I've completed a three-year vocational apprenticeship in metal fabrication, spent another year training as an industrial mechanic, and also worked in administration and logistics.

I'm hoping to spend 6–12 months legally living and working in or around NYC. I'm currently exploring J-1 Intern/Trainee programs for technical fields like manufacturing or quality control, as well as H-2B seasonal jobs.

So I figured I'd take a chance and ask the people who actually live here:

Does anyone know a company or business owner who might consider hosting an international technical trainee, or someone familiar with these visa programs?

I'm not looking for a handout. I'm willing to work hard and do everything the right way. Sometimes all it takes is one connection.

This has been a dream of mine since I was a kid, and now that I'm 22, I really want to give it a shot rather than spend the next few years wondering what could have been.

Thanks for reading, New York!

A father who had just picked up his son from school confronted two men who allegedly tried to take his belongings in The Bronx, New York.

The incident occurred on Thursday, Oct. 8, at about 2:30 p.m. near East 172nd Street and Mount Eden, according to dispatcher Johandry Jimenez.
According to the report, the two individuals were traveling on a motorcycle, dressed in black and with their faces covered. When they tried to strip the father of his valuables, he resisted and managed to hold one of the suspects, preventing him from escaping.

Meanwhile, the driver of the motorcycle managed to leave the place. Several people who witnessed what happened came to the aid of the father and collaborated to keep the individual detained until the arrival of the police.
