Brooklyn Inside & Out

I'm currently in my apartment, and despite being told by the shelter that I wouldn't have to pay anything initially, I'm struggling with utility costs now that I’m on my own with my child. I have a CITYFHEPS voucher for rent, but I'm worried about the utilities since I'm not working and don’t have family support. I applied for food stamps, which help occasionally, but it’s not enough. I applied for HEAP assistance for my utilities but got denied and reapplied, hoping for better luck this time. It’s really challenging being a single mom without financial help, and I wish there were more opportunities and resources to support families like mine. Thank you for considering the needs of single mothers. 🫶🏽🙌🏽

530 Utica Avenue IN PROSPECT LEFFERTS GARDENS???? I don’t think so. I know that neighborhood boundaries get stretched by real estate interests as they get more poly, but this is absurd! Doesn’t YIMBY know anything?

Your account is slightly inaccurate. J.B. Hoecker, Jr. divorced Adele his wife shortly after J.B. Hoecker, Sr. Died in 1918. J.B. Sr.'s wife Fredericka, died 1 month later. J.B. Jr died in 1943 and his ex-wife Adele died in 1951. I'm a relative

Beautiful home, but if I was the owner I would have invested some $$ in refreshing. Get rid of the wallpaper in the bathroom, replace the vanity, paint the yellow walls a neutral color. The kitchen could be kind of cool with a new floor and an updated stainless appliances - maybe a simple tiled backsplash and no yellow walls. For probably 25k it would have a much more move-in ready vibe. But it is lovely, and a great location, so maybe buyers wont care.
