We are thrilled to share with you that the legislation we’ve been pushing for months has been signed into law! HUGE thanks to Governor Kathy Hochul for signing the bill authorizing Weigh In Motion technology to keep overweight trucks off the BQE cantilever. This is a first step towards a cleaner, greener BQE (or maybe no BQE) for all of us! Great work by Assembly Member Jo Anne Simon and Senator Brian Kavanagh to see this through.

UPDATE: on Wednesday we launched a fundraising campaign for the two victims of the 132 Montague Street fire, and the community came together with an outpouring of generosity -- so much so that we ended our campaign early. In just one day 115 donors sent us $10,476 which we will now disburse as quickly as possible. Once again you have shown how much we can accomplish when we come together. Thank you for making Brooklyn Heights such a wonderful community.

On Friday December 10th a fire decimated 132 Montague Street.

The BHA has been in touch with the Red Cross and we have determined that two of the apartments were occupied at the time of the fire. We know that our wonderful community wants to assist those who lost their homes and property, and we are collecting funds that will be distributed to the impacted individuals in the form of a one-time cash grant. We will be collecting donations through December 31st.

EVERY CENT YOU DONATE WILL GO TO THE VICTIMS OF THIS FIRE.

The BHA will cover the credit card processing fees, and we don't take a percentage of your donation, which most crowdsourcing platforms do. All donations are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.

Early this morning responded to a 4 alarm fire at 132 Montague Street. Luckily no one was seriously hurt but the property damage is extensive. Many of you have reached out to us to see how you can help. We will let you know as soon as we determine what the needs are and how to best meet them. ❤️❤️❤️
