Also noticed on that block the grand opening this week of a mattress store on the corner of 87th & 4th (where the tutoring place used to be)...think it's called Dreamy's.

isn't sleepy's already on that block?

Chianti closed for renovations

New nail place next to Bay Ridge Bicycle (you guys all must have 6 toes down there or something)

Never heard of them. Though it appears they have a ton of pissed off customers on the web.

I'm in need of a couch, and finding that everyone has a ton of pissed off customers on the web. By the way, anyone know where I can buy a couch that won't fall apart?

by **naked rev. trish** » 15 Jul 2010, 11:00

costco?

by **Laura** » 15 Jul 2010, 11:02

They have couches? Nice.

Lazy Boy

At least that's where I am going next time I am buying sofa
my previous 2 were purchased at Jennifer Convertibles and broke after 6-12 months of use
I know my ass is big and heavy but it can't cause that much damage

by **Laura** » 15 Jul 2010, 11:13

Lazy Boy! Genius! I completely forgot about them, their products could totally survive being bounced, spilled, colored, and rolled upon.

Laura, talk to Kevo

I am not quite sure if you are calling Kevo lazy (Lazy Boy), or if he can help Laura with a furniture purchase.

Does he jump on couches? :-D

by **naked rev. trish** » 15 Jul 2010, 13:54

I forgot about that. He can help you with a purchase.

by **Laura** » 15 Jul 2010, 14:08

By telling me which brand can take the most abuse?

by **naked rev. trish** » 15 Jul 2010, 14:09

I believe he's working at one of the retailers...

by **Laura** » 15 Jul 2010, 14:10

Perhaps I'll still insist he jump on anything he shows me :-D

by **naked rev. trish** » 15 Jul 2010, 14:12

perhaps I'll just quietly walk away from that....

by **Laura** » 15 Jul 2010, 14:15

Yeah, I'm totally on that side of creepy.

What the man does in the privacy of his own home is no ones business, besides he's not allowed on the good couch :lol:

by **MQS1110** » 15 Jul 2010, 17:06

Seriously, he works for a furniture company. I got a nice set, let me rephrase that, I bought a living room set and he was able to get me a great deal.

by **PatC** » 28 Jul 2010, 18:10

Passed by earlier -- opening soon on 4th Avenue (between 85th & 86th Street) "King Grill Hibachi Express".

For good furniture, I used Mauriello Furniture. 7003 Fort Hamilton Pkwy (718) 238-7820

I owned a sofa from Mauriello's for over 10 years and it showed little sign of wear and tear. Bought a new one from them and they are just beautiful.

Call ahead and ask for the owner, Josephine because she knows what she is doing.

Looks as if "Bay Ridge Diner" will open in the old "Paradise" space on 5th.

by **qwijibo** » 04 Aug 2010, 11:52

It looks like Ridge Towing lost their city contract for the Belt Parkway.
I think the new guys are called Runway.

The other day I was at my doctor's office at 94th and 3rd and noticed that there's something called The Cafe at Sam's Bakery or something like that. They were closed but I'm intrigued. Have we discussed them yet?

You already have the best chinese restaurant in the neighborhood on 87th and 5th.

Chinese Restaurant, in the old Haagen Das space on 4th/87th - next to Dreamy's.

There must be a lots of Jews in the neighborhood, someone must be buying all that Chinese food.

That's funny because there are almost no jews in the neighborhood. Just poor people who work too much and have no time to cook.

"Fresca Bakery" on 92nd and Ft. Hamilton closed. I am surprised it lasted that long.

by **crazychristie717** » 14 Aug 2010, 20:15

I apologize if these have been posted yet. The old Robicelli's space has a canopy up, it's going to be a place called Monaco's, it says bakery and cafe. The old Blockbuster is going to be a Ford dealership.
