New Courtyard, Old Worries At LeFrak
By Jackie StrawBridge
Staff Writer
For some, the opening of the West
Courtyard at LeFrak City marked a
new era for the 50-year-old apartment
complex.
For others, it put a shiny new façade on long term problems.
Assemblyman Jeffrion Aubry (DCorona), State Sen. Jose Peralta (DEast Elmhurst) and a representative
for Councilwoman Julissa Ferreras
(D-East Elmhurst) joined LeFrak Organization principal Jamie LeFrak in
opening the courtyard April 8, marking a milestone in a multi-million
dollar renovation project in progress
throughout the complex.
Alongside the new West Courtyard,
LeFrak City is in the process of receiving new elevators, mail and laundry
rooms, apartment renovations, and
will ultimately see outdoor landscaping and a swimming pool among a
slew of other upgrades, according to
LeFrak. The new courtyard project –

Businesses Say ‘No’ Main
Street Bus-Only Lanes
By daniel Offner
Staff Writer
Business owners in the Queensboro Hill community have started a
petition against a proposed bus-only
lane on Main Street between Jamaica
and Flushing. The lanes are part of the
MTA and Department of Transportation’s plans for Select Bus Service
along the Q44 bus route from Jamaica
through Flushing and across the Whitestone Bridge to the Bronx.
Don Capalbi, president of the
Queensboro Hill-Flushing Neighborhood Association, said that while he is
in favor of enhancing bus service in the
area, he does not want the DOT or MTA
to take away parking from businesses.
“It’s not a big [business] district,”
Capalbi said, “but, it’s just as important
to us as Bell Boulevard is in Bayside.”
Of the two potential options presented by the MTA and DOT, both would
impact parking along the retail hub.
The petition states, “the merchant
district on Main Street, between Booth
Memorial Avenue and the Long Island Expressway, serves as a hub of
its Queensboro Hill residential community. Elimination of already-scarce
parking would destroy the currently
vibrant neighborhood commercial
hub, severely diminishing the quality
of life of all who have chosen to reside
in its proximity.”
As of press time, approximately
35 businesses in the Queensboro Hill
community have signed the petition
opposing a bus-only lane on Main
Street – a critical component of Bus
Rapid Transit, according to the Riders
Alliance, a membership-based organization of mass transit advocates.
“Ultimately, it’s what makes [Select
Bus Service] work,” Jessica Nizar, a
senior organizer with the Riders Alliance, said. “We don’t want a halfassed version.”
She explained that while the project would still include features like a
digital countdown clock, off-board
ticketing and more spacious buses, it
would not meet its objective: to improve travel time by 10 percent or
more taking the bus between Jamaica
and Flushing without the lanes.
Members of the business community feel removing already limited
parking would produce more harm
than good.
“Elimination of Main Street parking would exacerbate already substantial traffic congestion as drivers seek
alternate parking,” the petition reads.
Still in the preliminary stages, local
business-owners are hoping the DOT
and MTA will take their concern into
consideration before presenting more
detailed plans for SBS service on Main
Street.
Both the MTA and DOT plan to
meet with members of Community
Board 8 this spring to review any potential changes to the proposed SBS route.
Reach Daniel Offner at (718) 3577400, Ext. 125, doffner@queenstribune.
com, or @DanielOffner.
Both Aubry and Peralta repeatedly
referred to the renovations as a “new
beginning” for LeFrak.
“Over 50 years ago, Samuel LeFrak
had a vision, and his vision was to create a destination – a place where people could call home,” Peralta said. “The
LeFrak Organization have stepped up
to the plate to really meet up to what
Samuel LeFrak’s vision was, and this is
a new day, this is a new era.”
“LeFrak has gone through some
recent tragedies,” he added, alluding
to the shooting murder of a pregnant
resident last Thanksgiving and a cooking fire that killed three on New Year’s.
“But today is a day of celebration.”
Some residents, however, had trouble appreciating the project over what
they called persistent issues within LeFrak City.
Jim Galloway, coordinator for the
LeFrak City Tenants’ League, and resident Jorge Rodriguez together cited
poor heat and hot water, plumbing
problems, security problems and slow
response time from management to
complaints. Senior citizens in particular are “placed on the back burner” in
terms of getting problems fixed, Galloway argued.
He went on to call conditions at
the apartments – which rent at around
$1,500/month for a one-bedroom, per
the LeFrak City website – “deplorable.”
When asked about these specific
claims, LeFrak refuted them, and
said in particular that management
received no heat complaints over the
winter.
“Residents are really happy,” he
said.
LeFrak City management could
not confirm the lack of complaints.
In a conversation this week with the
Queens Tribune, Peralta noted that his
office has received calls from LeFrak
residents who have been unsuccessful
in getting heat issues and other apartment problems addressed.
However, he added, “when we call
LeFrak, they fix them immediately.”
Regarding security, LeFrak noted
that upgrades have already begun.
He said that around 600 of a planned
1000 cameras have been installed, and
pointed to one of the new key fobs that
have been installed on LeFrak City
doors, among several other measures.
“There’s a limit to how fast one
could go, but we’ve got quite a lot of
that out of the way,” LeFrak added.
Glancing at the new basketball
courts after the ribbon cutting, where
a group of kids had already started a
game, Rodriguez remarked, “this is
beautiful. I don’t mind paying for all
of this.”
“But give me services,” he continued.
“The apartments are falling apart.”

Four Found Dead In Home
By dOmenick rafter
Editor in Chief
Four elderly people were found
dead last Friday in a Floral Park home,
apparently killed by what officials said
was accidental carbon monoxide poisoning.
Police were called to the home at
260-08 86 Ave., just a few blocks from
the Nassau County border, at around
3:15 p.m. last Friday after the son of
Jerry and Marie Hugel, the elderly
couple who lived in the home, called
911. According to police, NYPD Sgt.
Robert Hugel had come to check on
his parents after receiving no response
from them, and upon arriving, found
them unconscious and their Buick
running in a closed garage.
Responding officers found four
people unconscious in home; Mr. and
Mrs. Hugel, who were 83 and 80-yearsold respectively, their tenant, Gloria
Greco, 70, and a friend, Walter Von
Thadden, 76, of Whitestone who happened to be in the home at the time.
EMS responded to the location and
declared all four victims dead at the scene.
The victims had no signs of trauma.
Police believe carbon monoxide emitted from the running car in
the garage may be to blame for their
death. According to published reports,
Jerry Hugel was found inside the car,
while his wife was in a kitchen nearby.
Von Thadden was found in the living
room in the first floor and Greco was
found at the top of the stairs on the
second floor.
FDNY officials say there were no carbon monoxide detectors in the home.

Jack Friedman, “Mr. Queens,” Laid To Rest
By Luis Gronda
Staff Writer
On somber Sunday afternoon –
what would have been his 56th birthday
- many who knew and loved Queens
Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Jack Friedman gathered to remember his life and contributions to
the Borough that he loved.
It was standing room
only at Parkside Chapel in
Rego Park for Friedman’s
funeral service. The longtime civic leader and businessman died last Thursday.
Family members and
close friends fondly remembered Friedman, not only
for what he did for Queens,
but the type of father and
husband that he was.
His son, Daniel, was first among the
family to eulogize his father, saying he
was “more than average” and he lived
his life, even when he was affected by
illnesses that ultimately took his life.
“The things that he overcame medically, one of them would have been
enough to debilitate someone for the
rest of their lives, but after the heart attack, the bypass and dialysis, he was always positive,” Daniel said. “[He] went
to the Mets games opening day, went
to the Knicks games when he could,
watched Notre Dame when he could.”
Cara, Friedman’s daughter, said he
was more than just a father to her, and
she looked up to him as a life influence.
“He was a mentor, a career counselor, a secret-keeper, he knows a lot
of things about a lot of you,” Cara said,
which produced laughs from those in
attendance. “But most importantly, he
was my best friend so today is a hard
day for all of us.”
His wife, Lorie, said the
service should be considered more of a celebration
of Jack’s life. She said that
he was planning on being
back at work this past Tuesday and attending Mets’
opening day on Monday.
“He’s watching us with
a big smile today because
he always hoped his work
made a difference and he
wore the title of ‘Mr. Queens’ proudly,” she said. “With all the tributes and
the articles and on social media, Danny and Cara can see that their dad was
one of the good guys and he did make
a difference.”
Lorie added that his family meant
everything to him, including taking
trips to Florida to see his mother and
taking care of his children.
“Jack was my best friend for almost
40 years, and I will always love him,”
she said.
Among those in attendance at the
service were Queens Borough President Melinda Katz, Public Advocate

Assemblyman Michael Simanowitz and Borough President Melinda Katz join other dignitaries at Freidman’s funeral Sunday.
Letitia James, State Sens. Toby Stavisky
and Leroy Comrie and Council Members Mark Weprin, Karen Koslowitz,
I. Daneek Miller and Julissa Ferreras.
Several elected officials sent out
statements expressing their condolences to the Friedman family.
“Jack Friedman was a beloved staple
of the Queens business and civic community,” Katz said. “Jack was fiercely
committed to making Queens a key
center of economic opportunity and
prosperity. Jack’s deep love for Queens
guided his leadership and activism
throughout the community for years,
and he was well-respected for it.”
Weprin first tweeted about Fried-
man’s death last Thursday.
“Devastated [to] say that my dear
friend Jack Friedman Exec Dir of @
QueensChamber has passed away.
My prayers to his family and many
friends,” he said.
Friedman was the executive director
of the Queens Chamber of Commerce
since 2007 and was also a member of
Community Board 13. He previously
served as President of the Northeast
Queens Jewish Community Council
and chief of staff to then-Councilman
David Weprin.

Possible Parking Reductions Rile CB Heads
By Jackie StrawBridge
Staff Writer
An early proposal by the Department of City Planning to revamp certain zoning regulations would also
remove some parking requirements,
to the chagrin of many Queens community leaders.
The plan includes a slew of adjustments to current zoning regulations
that the agency believes would together encourage affordable and senior
housing and create more attractive
buildings.
A major aspect of the plan calls for
modernizing zoning laws that were
established in 1987. Broadly, the DCP
believes regulations in certain districts
create tight, ugly buildings, which the
agency would address by increasing
height maximums five to 15 feet and
removing penalties for buildings that
are set back from street level, among
a number of other changes that Chairman Carl Weisbrod called “very, very
modest” at an April 6 media roundtable.
The plan also has a component to
address the City’s growing senior population: the DCP proposes relaxing
density restrictions on senior housing
and eliminating certain special permits for nursing home development.
The parking reduction involves the
removal of off-street parking for af-
fordable housing in a “transit zone” –
areas in mostly western and southern
Queens that are accessible by public
transportation. According to the DCP,
most low income homes either do not
have cars or cannot afford the offstreet parking lots provided by their
buildings, making those lots a burden
on developers. The agency believes
eliminating parking requirements
would encourage the development of
affordable housing.
Community Board leaders, however, were skeptical of these assertions.
“Once again it’s Manhattan-centric,” CB 5 chair Vinny Arcuri said.
In Ridgewood, which falls in the
transit zone and which Arcuri’s board
covers, “you can’t fit another car on the
street on alternate side [street sweeping] days,” he continued. “They’re
double and triple parked. So if you
reduce the requirements for off-street
parking, where are they going?”
CB 10 chair Betty Braton noted
that her district, which also lies in the
transit zone, is heavily populated by
drivers despite being served by public
transportation.
Braton explained that she has recently collected commuter Census
data for her board and found that “a
majority” of CB 10 residents drive
to work, opting out of the subway or
buses.
CB 2 Chairman Pat O’Brien also
responded to a specific element of the DCP’s parking
plan: parking reductions for
new and existing housing on
a case-by-case basis through
discretionary review.
“You’ll have to double the
staff at the BSA or DOB or
whoever’s going to do it, because every one of [the developers] is going to want to do
it,” he said.
In a statement released
Tuesday, Borough President
Melinda Katz reiterated these
concerns.
“In a transit desert like the
Borough of Queens, the reality for many families is having
to rely on cars to get to work,”
she said. “For our seniors, we
want them to maintain an
independent, active quality
of living for as long as possible. Our current mass transit
system – including subways,
buses and Access-A-Ride – is

Overactive Bladder:
Don’t Let It Get in the Way of an Active Life
Overactive bladder (OAB) is a very common condition, but many people have trouble discussing it with their
doctor because of embarrassment, a lack of knowledge about treatment options and the misconception that it is
a “normal” part of aging. Farzeen Firoozi, MD, urologist specializing in Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive
Surgery at the Arthur Smith Institute for Urology, part of North Shore-LIJ Health System, discusses what you
need to know about this condition.
Bladder frequency and urgency, also commonly known
as overactive bladder (OAB), is a condition affecting
millions of Americans. It can be found in people who
have conditions such as diabetes, stroke, dementia,
Parkinson’s disease and multiple sclerosis, but it may be
an indication of other diseases or conditions that would
also warrant medical attention. It commonly appears
without apparent cause.
Some symptoms of OAB include:
• Urinary urgency, or being unable to postpone the
need to urinate
• Frequency of urination, or the need to urinate at
least eight times per day
• Urge incontinence, or leakage of urine when one
gets the urge to urinate
• Nocturia, or the need to get up and urinate at least
two times per night
If you or a loved one has symptoms of overactive bladder, call (516) 734-8500 today to make an
appointment with one of our urologists. For more information, visit NorthShoreLIJ.com/Smith.
Customized Relief Options
We offer a range of treatments designed to manage most
symptoms of OAB. Depending on the causes of your
condition, these may include:
• Dietary modifications
• Very safe and mild medications
• Physical therapy for the bladder and the pelvic floor
• Non-invasive surgery — for a small fraction of
patients when the above options are ineffective
If you think you have a problem, you shouldn’t
wait. OAB can get in the way of your work, social
life, relationships, exercise, sleep, and overall
quality of life. The Smith Institute for Urology
has resources for men and women who want to
discuss these symptoms and treatment options with
a physician. Our urologists and urogynecologists
are at the national forefront for many non-invasive,
state-of-the-art procedures to correct incontinence.

In Our OpInIOn
Don’t Eliminate Parking
The proposal from the City Department of Planning to ease parking requirements
in a so-called “Transit Zone” to encourage more affordable and senior housing is a
bad idea.
In much of the Borough, parking is impossible. In neighborhoods in the “Transit
Zone,” like Astoria, Jackson Heights, Ridgewood, Flushing, Woodhaven and Jamaica,
residents have long complained of a lack of street parking. Despite the Department
of City Planning’s assertion that these neighborhoods are within walking distance of
subways, many residents still use and need cars for work, shopping, or other activities.
Many homes do not have driveways, or tenants do not have access to them. Queens
is not just a bedroom community for people who work and play in Manhattan.
Queens, and the City as a whole, needs more affordable and senior housing. But
we believe it cannot come at the cost of parking, which is also a necessity for many
seniors and residents who need affordable housing. They have cars too.
We urge the city to rethink their proposal to eliminate parking requirements.
Queens, for better or worse, is a Borough that includes a lot of drivers. And we urge
residents concerned about the plan to get informed about the proposal and make
their voices heard at the public hearings that are to be scheduled. Look for the times
and location to be published in the Queens Tribune.

Bayside Parking Options

To The Editor:
here are other options to
building a multi-story
parking structure at the

in Bayside. Why not approach
the Metropolitan Transportation Authority Long Island

spaces directly adjacent to Bell

Study Aims To Ease
Bell Blvd. Parking
Woes
By Daniel Offner
Staff Writer
Trying to park your car along Bell
Boulevard in Bayside can be a daunting
task. So, in an effort to address some of
the parking woes along the boulevard,
members of the Bayside Village Business Improvement District met on
Tuesday evening to workshop some
plausible short-term and long-term
solutions to the problem.
“We want to balance the parking
needs of businesses along Bell Boulevard and minimize congestion,” Lyle
Sclair, executive director of the Bayside Village BID, stated as the reason
behind the parking study.
Receiving $20,000 from New York
City Councilman Paul Vallone (DBayside) to help fund the study, the
BID issued a Request for Proposals
last year. As a result, they hired both
the engineering firm VHB and parking
consultants with the firm DESMAN
Associates to conduct the study.
According to Matt Carmody, director of transportation with VHB, the
overall purpose of the parking study
was to look at some of the different
issues that contribute to the parking
shortfall along Bell and recommend
short-term and long-term improvements to address them.
“By June we hope to complete the
study and our recommendations,”
Carmody said. “Within a year, we
hope to implement some of the shortterm solutions.”
Carmody said that one short-term
solution is to have some of the businesses with private parking lots hash
out a deal with neighboring businesses, in an effort to consolidate space
along the boulevard.
Another aspect of the study highlighted on-street parking in areas a
quarter-mile around the Long Island
Rail Road station, which was used to
determine approximately how many
commuters would park all-day long.
Based on data collected from MuniMeters along Bell Boulevard, consultants were able to determine that
parking is easiest in the morning
before peak hours, from 1 to 7 p.m.,
when it gets to be impossible to find
a spot.
One consultant with DESMAN Associates said some of the parking woes
that shoppers and businesses experience are due to New York City parking regulations, which have a much
different impact in more suburban

from eight potential options to address
parking issues, which included: $15
million to construct a private parking structure; $40 million for private
mixed-use development with floor
retail parking; $1 million for a longterm surface parking lot; $500,000 annually for coordinated valet parking;
$100,000 for new and improved MuniMeters; $786.6 million for a Citywide permit parking system; $25,000

CB 9 Angry Over
Katz’s Sacking Of
Member
By DOmenick rafter
Editor in Chief
Community Board 9 took direct
aim at the top of the Borough’s civic
and political food chain.
Angry over the ousting of longtime
board member Dr. Vincent Evangelista, CB 9 voted to send a letter to Borough President Melinda Katz insisting
that she reinstate him and suggesting
that his removal stemmed from Katz’s
disapproval over the process to hire a
new district manager, a process Evangelista led.
In March, Katz sought to slow down
the hiring process amid questions of
its transparency, but Evangelista, who
chaired the Board’s hiring committee,
and fellow Board members said there
was no reason to and moved forward
with hiring Lisa Gomes, a longtime
employee in the Board’s Borough
Hall office, to replace longtime district
manager Mary Ann Carey.
Critics of the process said it was
rigged from the beginning in favor
of Gomes, but members of CB 9 and
the hiring committee note that meetings were held in the open, including a
February meeting in which committee
members reviewed resumes in front
of media and members of the public.
Evangelista was the only Board member whose application for reappointment was not renewed.
CB 9 member Sylvia Hack read the
Board’s letter aloud at Tuesday night’s
meeting in Richmond Hill questioning Katz’s office.
The letter noted Evangelista’s perfect attendance record and blaming his
removal on the district manager hiring committee he chaired. “It was the
members of this board who decided to
accept the committee’s recommendations on the final decision on the three
candidates. It was our board’s decision
as a whole to move forward with the
election.”
The Board voted overwhelmingly
in favor of sending the letter with only
two votes in the negative. One of them
was from Joel Kuszai of Woodhaven
who explained his vote on Twitter.
“I don’t have any sense of what
went on with the search, have no
opinion about [Evangelista], who
seems like a great guy,” he said. “Rumors and fact are indistinguishable
for me at this point. So it’s not personal, not about the search, or even
on the merits of the ask. It’s not a battle we would win and not much good
will come from fighting this battle
when we’ll need all hands on deck for
real issues.”

The Price Of Water Will Rise Yet Again
By Daniel Offner
Staff Writer
Residents throughout the five boroughs will see a 3.24 percent increase
on next year’s water bills, if the City
Water Board approves a proposed rate
hike from the Department of Environmental Protection – the agency’s lowest increase in a decade.
“By implementing effective cost
controls, refinancing higher interest
debt and reducing the rental payment,
we are able to deliver the lowest rate
increase in a decade, and the 25 percent of single family homeowners who
use the least water will not receive any
increase at all,” DEP Commissioner
Emily Lloyd said in a statement. “In
addition, we have put together a
package of initiatives to provide
relief to nearly 50,000 additional
low-income, senior and disabled
customers.”
As a result, water and sewage
bills for an average single-family
homeowner will increase from
approximately $1,025 to $1,058
a year – less than $3 a month for
residents with an average consumption of 80,000 gallons a
year.
The proposed rate increase for
the 2016 fiscal year is .11 percent
less than last year, when Queens
elected officials and civic leaders

protested a proposed

it “unjustified,” and demanding that a City Hall spokesperson referred to
City Hall release key documents to Lloyd’s statement.
The DEP argues that the rate prodetermine if revenue from the water
system was being diverted to pad the posal for the 2016 fiscal year is a whopping 34 percent lower than originally
City’s general budget.
“For decades, the water system projected, because of cost-savings inionly charged customers what it need- tiatives that were implemented to keep
Water Rate Hikes Since
the rate as low as possible.
According to the agency, the proposed 3.24 percent increase is the
result of lower interest rates, strong
revenue projections, operational cost
savings and revenue carried over from
2014. The City will also return 20 percent – or $41 million – of the 2015 fiscal year rental payments to help fund
the water and sewer system.
In addition to the rate hike, the
DEP is proposing to freeze the minimum water charge of $1.27 for customers using less than 100 gallons per
day, expand the Home Water Assistance Program for 12,500 qualifying
low-income homeowners, implement
an online billing system and increase
credits for the lead and copper monitoring program.
The City Water Board will hold
2002
five public hearings – one in each
Borough – to discuss the DEP
proposal. On April 30, the board
will hold a hearing at LaGuardia
Community College, 45-50 Van
Dam St., at 7 p.m.
Following the public hearings,
members of the Water Board will
vote on May 8, to adopt the new
rates, which will take effect July
1.

Army Corps Planning Queens Flood Barriers
By Luis Gronda
Staff Writer
The Army Corps of Engineers will
soon choose a plan to better protect
coastal areas in Queens in the event of
a future hurricane.
According to Colonel Paul Owen, the
Army Corps is looking at two options
to build a protective flood barrier that
would shield southern Queens and the
Rockaway Peninsula from floodwaters.
The bigger, more expensive option
is to build a giant barrier in Jamaica
Bay near the Marine Parkway Bridge.
The alternative plan would see a smaller barrier go up around different parts
on the Jamaica Bay coastal area.
The ideas were announced during
a Superstorm Sandy flood insurance
town hall last week in Howard Beach,
which was organized by Rep. Hakeem
Jefferies (D-Brooklyn, Queens)
Owen said either barrier would
aim to reduce flood surge from flowing onto land and penetrating homes.
Sandy’s storm surge, which reached
several feet in parts of southern
Queens, caused most of the damage.
No matter which plan is ultimately
chosen, according to Owen, residents
will not see the barriers any time soon.
He said either option would take about
two years to plan - which would see
construction beginning in 2018 - and
about five years to build.
Owen said the larger barrier would
cost more and take longer to build
while the second plan would be cheaper and could be done in less time. He
estimated that the larger barrier would
cost almost $3 billion to build.
“The most comprehensive plan is
probably the surge barrier. We just got to
see if there’s the appetite for that much
money to build it,” the Colonel said.
Owen said they are hoping to make
a decision on which plan to move forward with by September of this year so
the planning phase can begin.
There will be two public hearings
this month specifically about the flood
barrier proposals. The first will be on
April 22 at the Knights of Columbus
in Rockaway. The second will be one
week later, April 29, at Floyd Bennett
Field in Brooklyn.

Gastropub OK’d At Lively Hearing
By Jackie strawBridGe
Staff Writer
A new gastropub from the owners
of LIC Bar got a green light for a liquor
license at a standing-room-only Community Board 2 hearing last Wednesday.
To be located at 47-02 Vernon
Blvd., the eatery promises a 40-seat
restaurant and a 12- to 14-seat bar.
Whereas LIC Bar is a music venue,
owner Brian Porter said his new establishment will be food-focused and
will not feature live music.
The special hearing for this application was called at a March CB 2 City
Services and Public Safety committee meeting, after neighbors William
and Beth Garrett expressed concerns
about potential noise, according to a
report from the LIC Post.
Vernon Boulevard residents and
business owners took turns debating
not only the gastropub’s liquor license
application, but also the character of
the neighborhood in general, and the
impact of late-night establishments on
public safety, the local economy and
sleeping neighbors.
Discussion revolved specifically
around whether the restaurant’s bar
should be allowed to stay open until
the legal last call, 4 a.m.
CB 2 member Kenny Greenberg
spoke about his experiences living
near late-night bars.
“It’s colorful, let’s put it that way,”
Greenberg said, before going on to describe finding vomit along the streets
and being awoken in the middle of the
night.
Beth Garrett spoke in support of
curtailing the gastropub’s hours.
“It’s not to limit businesses,” she
said. “It’s to make a compromise between people who live here – quality
of life – and business.”
Others, however, argued that CB 2
should encourage late-night establishments, in order to provide services for
Long Island City’s booming population and boost economic growth.
“Let the small businesses grow
here,” one neighbor said. “Don’t drive
people into the City, or Brooklyn, or
even into Sunnyside.”
Ultimately, Porter struck on a compromise that the Committee found
appealing. He suggested keeping his
kitchen open late, perhaps until 2
a.m.
“They’re going to sit down, relax,
have something to eat as well,” he
said.
The Committee subsequently approved the liquor license application
in a unanimous vote.

Red Storming Ahead:
Past SJU Coaches
Talk Mullin,
Future Prospects
By David Russell
There was a time when St. John’s
basketball was bigger than Duke.
Chris Mullin and Bill Wennington
turned down the Blue Devils to play
for Lou Carnesecca’s Redmen. Mullin became the program’s all-time
leading scorer, and led St. John’s
to the 1985 Final Four. Since then,
Mike Krzyewski has led Duke to 12
Final Four appearances and five
national championships. St. John’s
is still looking to make it back to the
Final Four.
Now Mullin returns to Utopia
Parkway as the head coach of the
Red Storm, replacing Steve Lavin.
Although there is a lot of excitement,
much has changed in the last 30
years.
“It’s not the same school he went
to. The biggest mistake they ever
made was building dorms,” said Mike
Jarvis, who coached the Red Storm
from 1998 to 2004. “Players went to
St. John’s because they could stay
at home, pay rent, drive a car. They
got a lot of kids who would get a stipend. That was the beginning of the
downfall.”
When Carnesecca retired in 1992,
assistant coach Brian Mahoney was
promoted. But since his departure
in 1996, the school has looked for
someone with St. John’s ties.
“From my hiring to the present
day, they were never satisfied with
someone outside of their own family,” said Fran Fraschilla, Mahoney’s
replacement. Fraschilla was fired
after a 22-win season in 1998. “It
doesn’t matter how hard you try,
unless you’re getting to the tournament consistently. I felt I wasn’t a
St. John’s guy, and that permeated
through my two years at the school.”
Fraschilla was replaced by Jarvis,
who also had no previous connection
to St. John’s. “They always wanted
one of their own,” Jarvis said. “They
got exactly what they wanted. He’s a
perfect fit, the fit they’ve been waiting for.”
“A John Calipari or a Rick Pitino
would have won big, but it wouldn’t
have been the same as Chris Mullin,”
Fraschilla, who played with Mullin in
Marine Park, Brooklyn in the 1960s,
said. “I knew him since he was 14. I
do think he’ll do a good job. I have an
interesting perspective.”
Mullin has never coached or recruited, but he’s hired Matt Abdelmassih as an assistant coach. Abdelmassih had been the assistant at
Iowa State. St. John’s has already
landed Tariq Owens, a transfer from
New St John’s head coach Chris Mullin at his introductory press
conference with his former coach Lou Carnesecca.
Tennessee, and Darien Williams,
who committed to Iowa State but
instead follows Abdelmassih to St.
John’s. The hiring of Abdelmassih
was critical for Mullin, given that
Mullin has been much closer to the
NBA game. “No matter how much
you know, it’s different,” Jarvis said.
Mullin is also expected to hire Barry
Rohrssen, who served as an assistant at Kentucky.
Being a college coach means a
lot more than just coaching on the
sidelines. “The toughest thing he’ll
get used to is how many directions
he’ll get pulled in,” Fraschilla said. “I
spoke 75 times in two years at fundraisers and alumni events.”
The school is hoping Mullin’s
credentials will bring in the top high
school players. “How often does a kid
get to play for a Hall of Fame player?
Especially in New York, that makes
all the difference,” said Jarvis, who
coached Mullin in the 1981 McDonald’s All-American game. “Kids are
impressed by titles. What you wear,
what car you drive. He’s a soft-spoken guy. I think he’ll be perfect.”
St. John’s wanted a big name to
lead the program and got it. “He’s
going to do an unbelievable job,”
said Norm Roberts, who coached St.
John’s from 2004-10. “Hiring someone of that magnitude, hiring him is
terrific. He’ll do a great job.”
Mullin’s NBA experience should
Clockwise from left:
Former
coaches Norm Roberts, Mike
Jarvis and Fran Fraschilla share
their thoughts on Chris Mullin.
serve him well, according to Fraschilla. “It will generally come naturally to him. The NBA is much more
sophisticated than college. If he
coaches his team like an NBA team,
I think he’ll be better for it. Kids want
to play faster, they want their shot
and he was a good shooter. All of
that knowledge he has, this won’t
be the equivalent of brain surgery.
Chris is going to be around a great
staff. He has a terrific basketball
mind and he has pride in restoring
St. John’s.”
Some coaches and teams have
had difficulty following the 1985 Final Four season. The ’91 and ’99
teams made the Elite Eight but have
been somewhat forgotten. “The ’99
Elite Eight was pretty special. People would like to forget it for some
reason,” Jarvis said. “In 2000, we
went undefeated in February. We
beat Duke, Syracuse and UConn in
one week and were a 2-seed in the
tournament. If they don’t send us out
West maybe we make the Elite Eight
or Final Four.”
Mullin’s popularity may be through
the roof, but Jarvis said fans should
make sure the expectations are realistic. “I hope they don’t call him
‘King’,” Jarvis said. “They called me
‘King’ once. I wish him nothing but
the best. He’s a great, great guy.”

Start Planning Your Child’s Summer Today
During the summer while
school’s out, kids are at
greater risk for learning loss
and weight gain unless they
have a game plan that includes learning enrichment
and physical activity. Summer camps are a great way
to ensure children continue
to grow socially, emotionally,
cognitively and physically,
while learning skills that will
serve them well in the coming school year and beyond.
Working with SEER, an independent research organization, the Y
surveyed nearly 40,000 parents with
children enrolled in Y camp programs. The survey revealed that 91
percent of parents said they agreed
day camp programs helped their
kids make new friends. In addition,
81 percent said they agreed the program helped their kids discover what
they can achieve, while 86 percent
agreed their child felt a sense of belonging at camp.
Taking time to research summer
camp options is critical to finding
the best fit for your child. Consider a
camp program that offers learning,
exploration and achievement to help
make your child’s summer the best
ever. Here are some questions to ask
when selecting a camp:
Does your child want to attend
a day camp or a resident camp?
Typically, day camps are a child’s
first camp experience that prepares
him or her for overnight camps later on, but there’s no rule that says
kids must start close to home. It all
depends on what you’re looking
for and what’s comfortable for your
child. Most importantly, you want
your child to have fun at camp. As
a nonprofit committed to youth development, the Y offers more than
1,800 day and 300 resident camp
programs. Y camps focus on three
areas proven to impact child development: friendship, accomplishment
and belonging.
What camp size is best? Make
sure your camp meets the recommended leader-to-participant ratio.
For example, there should be a 1:10
ratio for camps catering to 8 to 10
year olds. Also, ask yourself
how your child interacts with
peers. Some kids enjoy large
camps where they can make
many friends, while others do
better in smaller groups, like
a few dozen campers, where
there’s no fear of getting lost
in the crowd.
Does the camp have qualified staff? Selecting a camp
requires trusting that the camp
selects well-qualified young
adults and trains them well
to safely lead programs that provide
values lessons for your child. Learn
about the staff and camp directors
to be assured that the camp screens,
carefully selects and trains their leaders. Many camps are accredited by
the American Camp Association,
which requires adherence to a wide
range of safety practices.
Does your child want a general
camp or a specialty camp? Many
organizations like the Y offer more
classic programs that get back to
nature with rustic cabins and a variety of outdoor activities. Some offer
specialty programs with a single goal
in mind, such as nature education,
training for a sport, horseback riding or performing music. Talk to your
children about what type of camp
interests them and would best provide their ideal summer experience.
Traditional camps that offer a wide
variety of outdoor programs can be
very impactful, and provide kids with
choices that they can make independently.
Does the camp encourage
healthy eating and physical activity? The collaboration between first
lady Michelle Obama, the Partnership
for a Healthier America and the Y has
focused on developing healthy habits in kids, families and communities
across the nation. These healthy eating and physical activity (HEPA) standards have been adopted by summer day and resident camps. Make
sure your child’s camp program offers plenty of health-conscious meals
and snacks while providing plenty of
chances for exercise.
When kids are out of school, they
can face hurdles that prevent them
from reaching their full potential,
related to hunger, water safety,
academics, safe spaces to play and
health. Through summer camp and
other youth development programs,
the Y helps more than 9 million
youth nationwide “hop the gap” and
achieve more, providing a safe to
place to learn, stay healthy and build
friendships.

LEISURE
Taste Of Sunnyside Back Under The 7
By Jackie StrawBridge
Staff Writer
A block-long buffet of dumplings,
pub food, bubble tea, craft beers and
more will sit under the 7 train in Sunnyside again this May.
Taste of Sunnyside, presented by
the Sunnyside Shines Business Improvement District, is back for another
year under the train at 46th Street and
Queens Boulevard. The event takes
place May 19 starting at 6:30 p.m.
Tickets cost $35 and are on sale
now at tasteofsunnyside.com. For $60,
attendees can get early entry at 5:30
p.m.
Many of this year’s participating
restaurants are new to both the festival
and the neighborhood, such as Dumplings and Things and the soon-to-open
Soleluna.
A number of popular Sunnyside
staples are also on the menu, including
Salt and Fat, Murphy’s Lobster Grill, the
Dog and Duck pub and De Mole.
Photo Courtesy of sunnyside shines
Last year’s Taste of Sunnyside saw about 600 attendees.
The event aims not only to support
local business, but also to emphasize
and promote the area’s diversity, billing
itself as a “culinary passport.” Keeping
with this theme, the BID has booked
the Thalia Spanish Theatre with Danza
Espana for a performance, among other
performers.
“Bringing all the flavors of Sunnyside into one visible food festival is an
amazing opportunity for local residents
and visitors alike to discover their new
favorite restaurant, and a great way to
help promote Sunnyside as a restaurant destination,” BID director Rachel
Thieme said in a statement. “Last year’s
event exceeded our wildest expectations
and we’re excited to be back under the
7 train again this year to sample all this
delicious food.”
According to a Sunnyside Shines
spokesperson, about 600 people attended last year’s Taste of Sunnyside
and the BID is expecting the same
numbers this year.
To coincide with Taste of Sunnyside,
the BID created a local shopping incentive; a Taste of Sunnyside Discount Card
is available for use April 8 through May
31 at participating local businesses.
The card and more information on
the event are available at tasteofsunnyside.com.

Musician Of Queens: Kento Iwasaki
By Jackie StrawBridge
Staff Writer
For Elmhurst-based composer Kento Iwasaki, music has a narrative. The
artist draws from a variety of musical
and artistic traditions to create compelling songs that tell a story.
Iwasaki’s works include everything
from orchestral pieces, to narrated
folktales, to performance pieces and
accompanied spoken word.
“I find gestures in music have an inherent theatricality,” Iwasaki said. “My
goal as a composer and performer is
to have the music communicated to be
the central focus; the performer is the
conduit of that music world. Similarly,
in theater, I strive for the characters
and the world to be conveyed, so
much that we forget who it is who is
performing during the duration of the
performance.”
Iwasaki has also written operas;
his work “Beloved Prey” tells stories
of predator animals adopting other
animals that would typically be prey.
Accompanying the music, shadows of
the show’s singers are projected onto
a screen “to convey a story of nature
with a sense of the mythological,” the
composer explained.
“I try my best to explore the central
themes in each particular story,” Iwasaki
said, adding that he is drawn to themes
such as nature and familial love.
Iwasaki also noted a special interest in communication across borders,
cross-cultural encounters and translation. Before coming to the melting pot that is Queens, Iwasaki was
well traveled, having lived in Tokyo,
Champaign, Ill., Princeton, N.J. and
Philadelphia.
“I find myself drawn to classical
and folk traditions in different parts
of the world,” he said. “I personally
write music because it conveys another
world, some other place that’s just as
real as ‘here.’”
Iwasaki specializes in a Japanese
instrument called the koto. The koto is
a 13-string harp played with picks, with
potential to create a variety of sound
types from scratching, plucking and
pushing and pulling the strings.
“The instrument can play in nonwestern tuning systems without difficulty. It’s just a matter of tuning it by
ear,” the artist explained. “I find myself
moved by the simplicity of the koto, by
its ‘less is more’ aesthetics.”
Music fans can catch Iwasaki at
Long Island City’s Secret Theatre in
November, as part of the Sound of the
Arts Festival, where he will perform
“Beloved Prey.” Iwasaki’s music will also
accompany the Korean dance group
Noree Performing Arts in an upcoming
Flushing Town Hall performance, date
to be announced.

members of the QBG Gallery Committee. The Garden is a place where
people, plants and cultures are celebrated through gardens, educational
programs and demonstrations of
environmental stewardship.
“If you have any doubt whether
spring has sprung then rush right
over to The Red Wall Gallery at Resorts World Casino,” Susan Lacerte,
executive director of the Garden
said. “QBG’s story – its origins,
development and continued flowering – reflect the Borough’s love
of plants and community. We are
thrilled to show the beauty flowering right here in Queens to patrons
at the casino.”
The exhibit will also feature photographs from local photographer
Dominick Totino.
“The QBG holds a special place for
me, as when my father was starting his
landscape business back in the early
60’s, one of his first biggest contracts
was landscaping for the 1964 World’s
Fair in Flushing Meadows,” Totino
said. “During that time he was asked
to save four trees by transplanting
them out of the park. Today, those
four trees are the ones stand at the
main entrance of the QBG.”
Resorts World Casino is located at
110-00 Rockaway Blvd., Jamaica and
the exhibit is free of charge. For more

Please read it carefully. SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT
You are in danger of losing
your home. If you fail to respond to the summons and
complaint in this foreclosure
action, you may lose your
home. Please read the summons and complaint carefully. You should immediately contact an attorney or
your local legal aid office to
obtain advice on how to
protect yourself. SOURCES
OF INFORMATION AND
ASSISTANCE The State encourages you to become informed about your options
in foreclosure. In addition to
seeking assistance from an
attorney or legal aid, there
are government agencies,
and non-profit organizations
that you may contact for information about possible
options, including trying to
work with your lender during
this process. To locate an
entity near you, you may call

Department’s website at
www.banking.state.ny.us
FORECLOSURE RESCUE
SCAMS Be careful of people
who approach you with offers
to “save” your home. There
are individuals who watch for
notices of foreclosure actions
in order to unfairly profit from
a homeowner’s distress. You
should be extremely careful
about any such promises and
any suggestions that you pay
them a fee or sign over your
deed. State law requires
anyone offering such services
for profit to enter into a contract which fully describes the
services they will perform and
fees they will charge, and
which prohibits them from
taking any money from you
until they have completed all
such promised services. Section 1303 NOTICE YOU ARE
IN DANGER OF LOSING
YOUR HOME If you do not
respond to this summons and
complaint by serving the
copy of the answer on the
attorney for the mortgage
company who filed this foreclosure proceeding against
you and filing the answer with
the court, a default judgment
may be entered and you may
lose your home. Speak to an
attorney or go to the court
where your case is pending
for further information on
how to answer the summons
and protect your property.
Sending a payment to your
mortgage company will not
stop this foreclosure action.

premises, Defendant(s), TO
THE ABOVE NAMED DEFENDANTS: YOU ARE HEREBY
SUMMONED to answer the
Complaint in this action,
and to serve a copy of your
Answer, or, if the Complaint
is not served with this Summons, to serve a Notice of
Appearance on the Plaintiff’s
Attorneys within twenty (20)
days after the service of this
Summons, exclusive of the
day of service, where service
is made by delivery upon you
personally within the State,
or within thirty (30) days
after completion of service
where service is made in any
other manner, and in case
of your failure to appear or
answer, judgment will be
taken against you by default
for the relief demanded in
the complaint. NOTICE YOU
ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING YOUR HOMEIf you do
not respond to this summons
and complaint by serving a
copy of the answer on the
attorney for the mortgage
company who filed this foreclosure proceeding against
you and filing the answer with
the court, a default judgment
may be entered and you can
lose your home. Speak to an
attorney or go to the court
where your case is pending
for further information on
how to answer the summons
and protect your property.
Sending a payment to your
mortgage company will not
stop this foreclosure action.
YOU MUST RESPOND BY
SERVING A COPY OF THE
ANSWER ON THE ATTORNEY FOR THE PLAINTIFF
(MORTGAGE COMPANY)
AND FILING THE ANSWER
WITH THE COURT. The following notice is intended only
for those defendants who
are owners of the premises
sought to be foreclosed or
who are liable upon the
debt for which the mortgage
stands as security. YOU ARE
HEREBY PUT ON NOTICE
THAT WE ARE ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT,
AND ANY INFORMATION
OBTAINED WILL BE USED
FOR THAT PURPOSE. The
present amount of the debt
as of the date of this summons: $399,546.04, consisting of principal balance of
$283,918.41 plus unpaid accrued interest of $67,209.97,
escrow/impound shortages
or credits of $22,016.79, late
charges of $0.00; Mortgage
Insurance Premium charges
of $24,207.14; Broker`s
Price Opinion/Appraisal of
$325.00; Property Inspection
and miscellaneous charges
of $647.00; attorney fee
$1,200.00 and surrogates
search fee $21.73. Because
of interest and other charges
that may vary from day to
day, the amount due on the
day you pay may be greater.
Hence, if you pay the amount
shown above, an adjustment
may be necessary after we
receive the check, in which
event we will inform you.
The name of the creditor to
whom the debt is owed: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC
D/B/A CHAMPION MORTGAGE COMPANY. Unless
you dispute the validity of the
debt, or any portion thereof,
within thirty (30) days after
receipt hereof, the debt will
be assumed to be valid by the
herein debt collector. If you
notify the herein debt collector in writing within thirty
(30) days after your receipt
hereof that the debt, or any
portion thereof, is disputed,
we will obtain verification
of the debt or a copy of any
judgment against you representing the debt and a copy
of such verification or judgment will be mailed to you
by the herein debt collector.
Upon your written request
within 30 days after receipt
of this notice, the herein
debt collector will provide
you with the name and address of the original creditor
if different from the current
creditor. Note: Your time to
respond to the summons and
complaint differs from your
time to dispute the validity
of the debt or to request the
name and address of the
original creditor. Although
you have as few as 20 days
to respond to the summons
and complaint, depending on
the manner of service, you
still have 30 days from receipt
of this summons to dispute
the validity of the debt and
to request the name and address of the original creditor.
TO THE DEFENDANTS: The
Plaintiff makes no personal
claim against you in this action. TO THE DEFENDANTS:
If you have obtained an
order of discharge from the
Bankruptcy court, which
includes this debt, and you
have not reaffirmed your liability for this debt, this law
firm is not alleging that you
have any personal liability for
this debt and does not seek
a money judgment against
you. Even if a discharge has
been obtained, this lawsuit
to foreclose the mortgage
will continue and we will
seek a judgment authorizing
the sale of the mortgaged
premises. Dated: September
16, 2014 Joshua P. Smolow,

Help For Homeowners In
Foreclosure New York State
Law requires that we send
you this notice about the
foreclosure process. Please
read it carefully. Mortgage
foreclosure is a complex
process. Some people may
approach you about “saving” your home. You should
be extremely careful about
any such promises. The State
encourages you to become
informed about your options
in foreclosure. There are
government agencies, legal
aid entities and other nonprofit organizations that you
may contact for information
about foreclosure while you
are working with your lender
during this process. To locate
an entity near you, you may
call the toll-free helpline
maintained by the New York
State Banking Department at
1-877-BANKNYS (1-877-2265697) or visit the Department’s website at www.banking.state.ny.us. The State does
not guarantee the advice of
these agencies.

By JoRDan GiBBonS
Jacob deGrom was not dazzling
in the Mets home opener, but he got
the job the done and kept the Philadelphia Phillies from crossing home
plate, earning his first victory of the
season.
The Mets won 2-0 on Monday
afternoon manufacturing enough
offense to support deGrom and the
bullpen, despite leaving nine runners on base.
Last year’s National League
Rookie of the Year did not have his
best stuff on the mound, but was able
to muster up six plus innings with
three strikeouts,
while giving up seven hits.
“When you realize you don’t
have that you really got to concentrate and try to make the pitches that
you can make,” deGrom said. “My
offspeed really wasn’t that good and
I was having a hard time locating my
fastball, so I really had to bear down
mentally and try to get guys out.”
Daniel Murphy helped get the
Amazin’s on the board first in the
bottom of the 4th inning when he
knocked a double over rightfielder Grady Sizemore’s head. Travis
d’Arnaud helped move him over to
the third with a groundout, which
set up Juan Lagares for the two-out
RBI opportunity.
Lagares cracked a groundball
back up the box at Harang, who
got his glove on it to knock the ball
down, but got his cleet stuck in the
mound and could not get to the ball
fast enough to throw out Lagares at
first, allowing Murphy to score the
opening run.
In the top of the seventh inning, Manager Terry Collins pulled
deGrom from the game after giving
up back-to-back singles. He left the
mound having thrown 99 pitches.
Carlos Torres came in and got two
straight outs, stranding runners on
first and third.
Late in spring training, the Mets
acquired lefthanded reliever Jerry
Blevins, who came in Monday and
continued to be lights out against
lefthanded batters, getting Odubel
Herrera, Chase Utley and Ryan
Howard 1-2-3 in the eighth inning.
Michael Cuddyer knocked his
second hit of the game in the bottom of the eighth. Murphy followed
by smacking a groundball to second
base, where the normally sure-handed Utley botched the play, allowing
the ball to shoot through his legs for
an error. This allowed the Mets to
manufacture another run as d’Arnaud
produced a sacrifice fly bringing in
Cuddyer for the second run.
“I’d like to wack a few more,”
Collins said about the ways the Mets
are producing their runs. “We’re just
kind of plugging along, plugging

Monday.
along and if something happens,
how many times do you see a ball
go through Chase Utley’s legs - like
never - and so we capitalized and got
a run out of it. That’s how we’ve been
winning.”
Jeurys Familia came in to close
out the ninth and gave up a walk
to start the inning. But after David
Wright came in to calm him down,
Familia got Sizemore to ground into
a 3-6-1 double play that he finished
off himself, inciting some emotion in the newly-named closer. He
closed out the game on the next batter for his second save on the young
season.
“This is a whole different stage.
There’s 45,000 people screaming and
if we’re going to continue playing like
we’re talking, you better get used to
it,” Collins said about Familia dealing with the sold out crowd. “This
is a good outing for him to get out
there and understand the noise and
everything else involved, you still
got to control yourself and he came
back and got some outs.”
The Mets announced that Monday’s game set a record for attendance during a regular season game
- 43,947. The only time Citi Field saw
more people in the stands for baseball was at the 2013 All Star Game.

Promoters and sponsors of this
year’s planned cricket tournament at
Floyd Bennett Field that may feature
many of the top cricket stars from
the West Indies and elsewhere, announced some specifics of the twoday event last weekend.
The games, which will be held
Aug. 1 and 2, are attracting a lot of
attention from local fans of the sport,
which originated in England, but is
extremely popular in the West Indies
and South Asia and other countries
formerly part of the British Empire.
The idea for the event came from
a similar one that was held in Fort
Lauderdale, Fla. in January.
“We wanted to bring this to the
cricket capital of the United States,
the New York area,” tournament pro-
moter Pooran Ramnanan said.
Gordon Greenidge, a former star
player with the West Indies cricket
team, which includes players from 15
English-speaking Caribbean country,
including Guyana, Trinadad and Tobago and Greenidge’s native Barbados,
was on hand Saturday in Ozone Park
to announce plans for the games.
“I wouldn’t put my name to this
if I didn’t think it would happen,”
Greenidge said.
One issue is lining up the roster
of cricket players from all over the
world. Ramnanan said the list of
participants may change and many
players may not be able to commit
until the final weeks.
Tickets will go on sale in the
coming weeks. It will be general admission with one price.

Cricket Stars To Hit The Pitch At Floyd Bennet Field
Tournament manager Orville Hall (left), promoter Pooran Ramnanan
and West Indies cricket legend Gordon Greenidge announced details
of the August game last weekend.
Hall said Floyd Bennett Field was
chosen over other locations because
of the size and the accessibility of the
venue, and noted that parking was a
major consideration as cricket fans
from as far away as New Jersey and
Connecticut are expected to attend.
Hall said he hoped the event
would help the cricket communi-
ty grow in the New York area and
throughout the country. He said he
hoped to bring similar events to other areas with a growing following,
such as Texas.
Ramnanan said plans are in the
early stages to take similar games
overseas as well to places such as
Guyana and India
