Street Justice today in the Bronx.

A father who had just picked up his son from school confronted two men who allegedly tried to take his belongings in The Bronx, New York.

The incident occurred on Thursday, Oct. 8, at about 2:30 p.m. near East 172nd Street and Mount Eden, according to dispatcher Johandry Jimenez.
According to the report, the two individuals were traveling on a motorcycle, dressed in black and with their faces covered. When they tried to strip the father of his valuables, he resisted and managed to hold one of the suspects, preventing him from escaping.

Meanwhile, the driver of the motorcycle managed to leave the place. Several people who witnessed what happened came to the aid of the father and collaborated to keep the individual detained until the arrival of the police.

So wait…the part about him being a criminal is disregarded?

I don’t get things anymore. The immigrant had a criminal history living amongst us law abiding citizens. I just don’t get it. They’re tossing around the word immigrant as if this moron was a hardworking productive member of society.

I checked the Bronx’s open HPD records. Five buildings have 4,750 entries between them.

I pulled NYC HPD’s public Housing Maintenance Code Violation records on October 10, filtered for Bronx records marked Open, and counted distinct violation IDs for each building across all classes and issued dates. The highest count in this pull was 530 East 169 Street: 1,170 open entries, including 359 Class C entries.

The five highest counts in this pull were:

  1. 530 East 169 Street — 1,170

  2. 2265 Olinville Avenue — 1,002

  3. 2179 Washington Avenue — 940

  4. 655 East 234 Street — 846

  5. 2344 Davidson Avenue — 792

That is 4,750 recorded open entries across these five buildings, including 1,365 Class C entries and 8 Class I information orders. HPD classifies Class C violations as “immediately hazardous.” That describes the violation classification, not proof that each physical condition is still present today. “Open” means active in HPD’s records; a repair can precede formal clearance. Larger buildings and different inspection histories can also accumulate more records. I did not adjust these totals for unit count, and I excluded the separate NYCHA file. This is a count of recorded open violations, not a “worst building” label.

If you’ve checked your building’s HPD record, did the status match the repairs you’d actually seen?

Clothing trends in NYC

I’m a 23 black male in need of guidance with the current fashion trends of today in New York.

Trending brands I’ve heard of that are similar to my interests is stuff like Denim Tears.

I also need guidance on wanting to go retro and try to look like how people in NYC used to look like in the 2000’s like DIPSET with the bomber jackets and baggie jeans.

If anyone has any recommendations like thrift stores or any stores catered to my interests and if you have any recommendations to the things I’m searching for PLS don’t hesitate to comment.

Park Slope grocery price check, from this week's store circulars (Lidl, Whole Foods, C-Town, Foodtown, Stop & Shop)

Disclosure first: I built the free site linked at the end, no signup and no ads, and this post is mostly data.

Park Slope is the one neighborhood where a lot of people do their real shopping at the Food Coop, so a circular roundup feels a little beside the point. But if you are not doing a Coop shift this week, or you just want to know where the regular supermarkets are cheap right now, I read every Park Slope store's weekly ad each morning and this is what they are leading with.

A timing note: the C-Town, Foodtown, and Stop & Shop ads below run through tonight (Thursday 7/16) and flip to a new week tomorrow, while the Lidl and Whole Foods ads are the current 7/15 to 7/21 week.

Lidl (120 5th Ave), week of 7/15 to 7/21:

  • Tomatoes on the vine, $1.49
  • Bellarom ground coffee, $4.79

Whole Foods (214 3rd St), week of 7/15 to 7/21 (Prime price in parentheses):

  • Strawberries, 16 oz, 2 for $7.78 ($7 for 2 with Prime)
  • Yellow peaches, $2.77/lb ($2.49/lb with Prime)
  • Large Hass avocados, 2 for $5.56 ($5 for 2 with Prime)

C-Town (329 9th St), through tonight 7/16:

  • Seedless watermelon, quarter cuts, 79 cents
  • Slicing tomatoes, $1.49
  • Yellow nectarines and southern peaches, $1.49
  • Red seedless grapes, $3.99

Foodtown (409 5th Ave), through tonight 7/16:

  • Land O Lakes cage free large white eggs, $3.49
  • La Yogurt, 10 for $8 (80 cents each)
  • Land O Lakes whipped butter, $2.99

Stop & Shop (Atlantic Terminal, 625 Atlantic Ave), through tonight 7/16:

  • Red seedless grapes, $2.69
  • Tomatoes on the vine, $1.88
  • 90% lean ground beef, $5.99/lb

A couple of head to head notes: on tomatoes on the vine, Lidl ($1.49, and good through next Monday) beats Stop & Shop ($1.88). On red seedless grapes, Stop & Shop ($2.69) beats C-Town ($3.99), but both of those ads end tonight.

If it is useful, the live cross-store price index is here (anyone can check it, no login): https://sbnyc.app/compare?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=summer-2026

Prices are from the stores' published circulars, verify in store.

Bronx dog owners — we’re opening a self-service dog wash in the Bronx and would love your honest opinion.

Would you use a place where you can wash and dry your dog yourself without the mess at home? What would make you want to try it, and what price would feel reasonable? Any feedback is appreciated.

looking for an early morning coffee spot in the bronx

i’m going to be in the bronx fairly early on a couple of mornings and realized i have no idea where to go for coffee that early

i’m talking around 5:30-6am. not really looking for a big brunch place or anything fancy, just somewhere where i can get a decent espresso or cold brew and walk around for a bit.

i’m from dublin, so i’m used to being able to find coffee pretty early, but i know nyc has its own rhythm and i’d rather ask people who actually know the area than rely on whatever shows up first on google.

bonus points if there’s a good walking route nearby. i’ll probably have a couple hours to kill before the rest of the day starts, so somewhere i can grab coffee and walk around would be perfect

doesn’t have to be in morris park specifically. anywhere that’s reasonably easy to get to and actually open that early would help

Brewery / Gastropub / Casual Restaurant with Private Room - Lower Westchester or North Bronx

Hi there, as. the title says, I'm looking for a brewery, gastropub or casual restaurant with a private room / area to hold a 50th birthday party for 30-50 people. Not looking for a sit down dinner, something more casual. Am I missing anything, especially in Yonkers, Riverdale or near Woodlawn? So far I'm looking into:

Simple Motive; Captain Lawrence; Brazen Fox; Wolf and Warrior; Pete's Saloon; Downey's (in Riverdale) and Rory Dolan's.

Thanks for any ideas!
