"Payroll Jim" -
and you're so right - March 18, 1928 has McGuiness quoted: "During the last week 'Payroll Jim' endeavored to give the impression that I double-crossed the Polish people of Greenpoint" and then brags about his endorsement from the #Greenpoint branch of Council of Greater New York Polish Democratic Clubs.

Like many of the stories from our Exploding Brooklyn podcast, two people were found at different times this summer in Newtown Creek in #Greenpoint - both of these stories are as yet unexplained - #Brooklyn -

Of the new buildings in #greenpoint this one’s my favorite. I find the #massing to be quite interesting. It stands apart from the buildings in my prior toot, both literally and figuratively. #brooklyn #nyc #newyorkcity #architecture

Kudos to Janette Sadik-Khan for bringing bike lanes and Citibike to New Yorkers, to Transportation Alternatives for advocating so effectively for a more bike-friendly and walkable City and to City residents and visitors for ditching their car or cab or Uber and embracing the carbon neutral program with such enthusiasm. https://joel-epstein.medium.com/citibike-is-not-just-for-youngsters-cccd5c77502e #transalt #citibikenyc Rebalancing is still an issue though as at this overcrowded dock at Ash Street in #Greenpoint

Another 9 docks opened or reopened today so I had to bike them too. I'm now at 1,846. #citibike #bikenyc Here's the last dock I biked to in Woodside after the 8 I ticked off in #Williamsburg and #Greenpoint

I've swum in the #EastRiver at #TransmitterPark and #MarshaPJohnsonStatePark. I belong to an organization that does free kayaking and is located on #NewtownCreek in #LongIslandCity called #HarborLab. Daughter is in #ProspectHeights on a sublet.
