Q&A:  Revisions to CPN’s By-Laws

We urge you to attend an informational meeting:

 All Shareholders should have received a copy of the “red-lined” By-Laws for review.

 Please submit any questions prior to the meeting in slot behind doorman’s station.

-BY-LAWS COMMITTEE, CPN BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Brooklyn’s modern history began as six small Dutch towns on the southern tip of Long Island. From these inauspicious beginnings sprouted New York’s most populous borough, full of unique and distinct neighborhoods. You may know where these neighborhoods are, but do you know what their names mean?

Brooklyn Heights Blog community member “Nabeguy” has posted many vintage photos of Brooklyn Heights including the block where 140 Cadman Plaza West now sits.  About the pics he says:

These photos were taken in November 1961 by my father, who, along with other like-minded neighbors, was in opposition to the proposed zoning variance that would allow for construction of the Cadman Towers. He wanted to illustrate the variety and depth of the 19th-century architectural heritage that was at stake. In one of his last-ditch efforts to forestall the wrecking ball, he lobbied to have the building on Cranberry St. in which Walt Whitman set the type for “Leaves of Grass” designated a National Landmark. Obviously, his attempts were in vain, but we do now have the Whitman Townhouses, and these photos, as reminders of what was lost.

The 140 Cadman Plaza West Peace & Quiet Committee seeks participants.

Our coop has sent representatives to the DOT Working Group meetings in
response to nightly construction noise on the Brooklyn Bridge. We need
some new blood.

If you would like to work on this problem, please contact Roberto Gautier.

Thank you.

ALERT: RAT POISON BAIT BLOCKS have been found lying on the ground inside Cadman Plaza Park. Specifically at the Clark Street entrance. Granted this area is marked with active rat holes, dog owners need to be alert. Some of the blocks can be found under piles of leaves. Try to avoid the Clark Street entrance for now.
