MERCURY FOUND IN TOWER Toothy stuff for Magic and condo developers By Ariella Cohen The Brooklyn Papers City inspectors have found dangerous levels of mercury vapor in the Williamsburgh Savings Bank tower, the landmark building at 1 Hanson Place which is being converted into luxury condominium apartments by Earvin “Magic” Johnson’s development company. The building, across the street from the Long Island Rail Road terminal and near the proposed Atlantic Yards mega-development site, is the tallest in Brook- lyn. The Department of Health (DOH) sampled the air inside of the building on June 15, one month before Johnson’s company, Canyon-Johnson Urban Fund, was preparing to demolish the building’s interior to make way for condos. In a former dental office on the eighth floor of the 34-story building, the air sampler recorded 2,300-2,400 nanograms of mercury vapor per cubic meter — more than double the level that would mandate a government-supervised clean- up in a residential unit. Before Johnson’s company teamed with developer Dermot Co., to buy the / Jeff Zelevansky / Jeff tower, many dentists offices were located there. In years past, mercury was a Callan / Tom common ingredient in dental fillings. In one-third of the locations tested by the DOH, dental tenants begat mercu- ry vapor levels that were well above the governmental safety regulations for Associated Press residences: 200-300 nanograms per cubic meter. “Every time someone made a filling, he would take a mortar and pestle and

Rising across a full city block between Hicks and Henry streets, the St. George was built as nine separate buildings in the 1920s and stood as the city’s grandest hotel for decades. But by the 1950s, the hotel’s luster had dimmed. Soon, vagrants were renting rooms. In 1995, a 16-alarm fire crackled through its art deco towers and completely destroyed one building. In 1997, Educational Housing Services, a private company that provides urban housing to students, took over the lease on the Weller building. While another St. George building now houses co-op apart- ments and a private health club, the complex’s Italian tiled, salt- water pool is long gone, as is its famous ballroom. “It’s sad in a way,” said Judy Stanton, executive director of the Brooklyn Heights Association, “Way back when, even peo- ple from Manhattan came over for the balls.” “It’ll never reach that level again,” said John Manbeck, for- mer Brooklyn Borough historian, “It was the place to go, the epitome of Brooklyn high society in its time.” Army links boro Arab to terror

Associated Press An Arabic translator for the Army may have secretly helped Iraqi insurgents by taking classified documents home from Iraq to Brooklyn, where he made a series of calls to numbers linked to the insurgency, a federal prosecutor said. The man was charged last month with falsifying his identity over many years, beginning when he entered the United States seeking political asylum sometime between 1978 and 1989. His alleged ties to the insurgency were revealed for the first time at a bail hearing Monday in federal court on Cadman Plaza East. Largest selection of Great selection of Assistant U.S. Attorney John Buretta on Monday said authori- ties had yet to determine the true identity of the defendant, who was ordered held without bail on three counts of making false statements to federal authorities. NATURAL & BEERS “We don’t know who the defendant is,’’ Buretta said. Buretta said the defendant posed a threat to American forces and prosecutors would likely seek the maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. ORGANIC & ALES “His release likely would directly endanger U.S. soldiers in Iraq,’’ Buretta said. Investigators said the suspect had extensive ties to people PRODUCTS from around the world linked to the Iraqi insurgency, according to the complaint and law enforcement officials. His cell phone address book contained two coded entries with the numbers of known insurgents, Buretta said. When he returned to the United States this year, he had more than 100 conversations with people directly involved with the in- surgency, Buretta said, including some whose numbers were found at suspected safehouses for Jordanian extremist Abu Full line of Musab al-Zarqawi, the leader of al-Qaida in Iraq. Investigators also discovered the suspect had improperly taken Gourmet Deli, to his Brooklyn apartment classified documents about combating the insurgency. One of the documents contained the heading GROCERY, “current threat,’’ said Buretta. Buretta said the man had received money from Sunni sheiks Cheeses, in Iraq, whose tribes supported the insurgency.

MUSIC Miles of tiles The Brooklyn Philharmonic kicks off its fourth sea- son of “Music Off the Walls” on Nov. 13 with its “Jewish Mosaic” program. Sunday’s concert will ex- plore — through music — the themes and ideas pre- sented in the current Brooklyn Museum exhibition, “Tree of Paradise: Jewish Mosaics from the Roman Empire.” The chamber music line-up, which traces the path of ancient cantorial singing into music new and old, includes works by Gabriela Lena Frank, Maurice Ravel, Yehudi Wyner, George Perle and Paul Ben-Haim. Cellist David Cal- houn (pictured) will be (718) 834-9350 The Brooklyn Papers’ essential guide to the Borough of Kings November 12, 2005 among the musicians performing works by this very international coterie of composers. The exhibition, “Tree of Paradise,” which is on dis- play in the first floor Robert E. Blum gallery through June 4, includes 21 Roman period mosaics as well as 38 related artifacts such as textiles, marble statues, gold jewelry and bronze ritual objects. “Tree of Paradise,” which was organized by Ed- ward Bleiberg, associate curator in the museum’s de- partment of Egyptian, Classical, and Ancient Middle Eastern Art, includes mosaic panels that were part of Myla’s the sanctuary floor of the synagogue in Hammam Lif, Tunisia, which were accidentally discovered on Feb. 17, 1883. On that day, according to the muse- um, French army captain Ernest de Prudhomme or- dered his soldiers to prepare his backyard for a gar- den where they simultaneously discovered the mosaics and, in the process, ushered in the birth of synagogue archaeology. The Brooklyn Philharmonic’s remaining “Music Off the Wall” concert dates explore Edward Burtyn- ‘Season’ sky’s photographs of landscapes (Jan. 15), William Wegman’s photographs of dogs (March 19) and the art of Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson (April 23).
