And while some of them had spent the last two months in extended spring training at Port St. Lucie, Fla., and knew each other pretty well, oth- ers had been picks in the June draft and had just signed contracts or finished their college seasons and arrived the night before. Together, they began their walk up Surf Avenue to Gargiulo’s. SUMMER IN THE CITY Adler could breathe easier a little while later, as the Academy bus came down Surf Avenue, but not for long, as it missed the turnoff into the Keyspan parking lot. The bus began to back up and after a block, a car blocked their way. The driver (possibly a Yankee fan), refused to move, even after the impassioned pleading of the bus driver, and the bus had to take the long way into the stadium. Through the heavy rain, the Dodgers came into the Gallery. ohnny Podres, winner of the deciding seventh game against the Why is everyone Yankees in the 1955 World Series, was there; Podres was look- Jing for his pal, Gene Hermanski, who couldn’t make it. Ralph Branca was there, as was Brooklyn native and Bay Ridge resident Joe Pignatano, a frequent visitor to Keyspan. Pitchers Clyde King and Roger Craig were in attendance along with outfielder Luis Olmo, first baseman Ed Stevens, pitchers Bob Milliken and Pat Mc- Glothin, and catcher Cliff Dapper. John “Spider” Jorgensen, Dodger so worried about third baseman was there, as were fellow Dodgers infielders Randy Jackson and Bobby Morgan. Jorgensen, who came up to the Dodgers from Montreal with Jackie Robinson, shared some memories. “I booted a ball against the Cardinals one day,” said Jorgensen, “and they beat us in the 11th or 12th inning, so when I got home that electricity? Are we really night [to Bay Ridge], six to eight kids were outside and they said, ‘Spider made an error! Spider made an error!’ I was madder than hell. I was gonna run ’em off, but I thought better of it.” Spider laughed. “ Ed Roebuck recalled when he came up to the Dodgers in 1955. “The fans knew all about what I did at Montreal. It was hard to believe that they would know about me. The fans here were the best using that much more? I’ve ever seen or heard.” When asked for a good memory on the field, as Roebuck was about to answer, the gregarious Roger Craig interrupted, “His best memory was watching me pitch.” At the dinner, radio announcers Warner Fusselle and Ed Randall introduced the Cyclones and the Dodgers. Brooklyn Borough Presi- dent Marty Markowitz spoke and said that Brooklyn was totally be- hind the Cyclones, but he joked, “They better win.” Then, the new Cyclones and the old Dodgers broke bread with about 300 Brook- lyn fans. After the main course, Johnny Podres stepped outside on the It's all the stuff that's part of our daily steps of Gargiulo’s, for some air. The rain had stopped. A few fans were there with him. Podres was talking about Pignatano. lives. We've got more PCs, printers and “You know, Piggy was Gil’s right hand man with the Mets,” said Podres.

The talk on the steps turned to a rumor. Pignatano still has the sign from the Mets’ bullpen that says “The Pigpen.” Pignatano used to grow tomatoes in the Mets’ bullpen when he was their bullpen Our energy supplies are tight, but coach, and their bullpen, in his honor, was “The Pigpen.” Might that ” sign appear in the Cyclones’ bullpen?

CB10 is planing a meeting with local city councilmen, and has also invited Geraty’s mother, to discuss how Bay Ridge should memorialize the victims. A hanging amulet from street signs with the victim’s name or a special plaque in the ground are among some of the ideas. While Councilman Vincent Gentile said he was waiting to com- ment on the street namings until after the meeting with CB10, a spokesman for the former councilman and current state senator, Marty Golden, said he was in favor of street namings for all victims. “If a family has reached out to the community and asked for their street to be renamed in honor of a 9-11 victim, be it a serv- ice worker or civilian, the senator would support the family in their endeavors to insure the memory of their loved one remains part of the community in the future,” said Golden spokesman John Quaglione. Most community board members contacted declined to com- ment, noting the sensitivity of the issue. Eileen Geraty said this week that she was disappointed in the board’s decision. Her daughter Suzanne Geraty was born and raised in Bay Ridge and attended PS 104 and Our Lady of Perpetual Help High School. From an early age, Geraty volunteered at a camp for chil- dren with cancer and HIV. She was a longtime volunteer for the Special Olympics and was an employee at the Guild for Excep- tional Children before taking a job at Cantor Fitzgerald. “I just want people to remember her,” said her mother. iNTERNET CAFE June ON 5TH SPECIAL $22/hr (reg. $4/hr) offer ends June 30, 2003

Not Just Another Pretty Face! ARLENE GREENDLINGER Real Estate LLC PUBLIC NOTICE Tel (718) 857-5360 Fax (718) 623-3323 www.arlenegreendlinger.com R30 NOTICE OF PUBLIC SCOPING AND INTENT HOUSES TO PREPARE A DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL For Sale / New Jersey IMPACT STATEMENT

PROPOSED BROOKLYN BRIDGE PARK PROJECT

Notice is hereby given pursuant to the New York State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA) and its implementing regulations (6 NYCRR 617) that the New York State Urban Development Corporation d/b/a Empire State Development Corporation (ESDC) intends to serve as lead agency for the proposed Brooklyn Bridge Park Project (the “proposed action”). ESDC has determined that a draft environmental impact statement (DEIS) is to be prepared for the proposed action.

R22 The Brooklyn Bridge Park Development Corporation (“BBPDC”), a subsidiary of ESDC, is responsible INSURANCE for all planning and design, property acquisition, and all development, construction and rehabilitation necessary for the creation of Brooklyn Bridge Park.

The proposed project, which ESDC has determined to be a Type 1 action, involves the creation of a 70- acre continuous park extending along the East River from the foot of Atlantic Avenue to Jay Street, north of the Manhattan Bridge. Within its 1.3-mile stretch of waterfront, the proposed park would offer a

N23-37 range of landscapes, passive and active recreational activities, and other opportunities for a wide variety of park experiences. Potential commercial facilities that would support the operation of the park include an indoor athletic facility for year-round swimming, ice skating, and other activities; a new hotel with restaurants; sites for more casual dining opportunities; and arts, education, and cultural facilities. The proposed park is envisioned as five interconnected areas. From the south, these are: the Atlantic Avenue Gateway including Pier 6; Piers 5, 4, 3, and 2; Pier 1 and Fulton Ferry Landing; the Interbridge Area; and North of the Manhattan Bridge and the Manhattan Bridge Gateway.

A public scoping meeting has been scheduled to take comments on the scope of work for the DEIS. The meeting will be held at Brooklyn Borough Hall, Court Room, Second Floor, 209 Joralemon Street on Thursday, June 26th at 5pm. Comments regarding the scope of work for the DEIS may be made in writing to the lead agency (Attn: Rachel Shatz, Empire State Development Corporation, 633 Third Avenue, NY, NY 10017) or in testimony at the public scoping meeting. Written comments regard- ing the scope of work for the draft environmental impact statement will be accepted until close of busi- ness Friday, July 11, 2003.

Copies of the draft scoping document may be obtained from the offices of the Brooklyn Bridge Park Development Corporation, 633 Third Avenue, 33rd floor, New York, NY 10017 (Attention: Maria Mooney, 212-803-3822, e-mail: [email protected]) or at the Brooklyn Public Library, Brooklyn Heights Branch, 2nd floor reference desk, 280 Cadman Plaza West; the Brooklyn Borough President’s Office, Police Desk, 209 Joralemon Street; Brooklyn Bridge Park Coalition, 334 Furman Street.
