Streetlevel: Tish James Campaign HQ Opens on Fulton
Council Member James has put a lot of effort into trying to revitalize Fulton Street so it made sense when she decided to set up her campaign headquarters between Grand and Downing; the new office opened this past weekend. Now she’ll also have to kick in for the BID fees that some of her neighbors…

Montrose Morris,
Tish gets paid a six figure salary she doesn’t need apologists. She is totally ineffectual and I will not be voting for her.
Big Jugs, you usual ignorance is showing. You obviously have no clue what Ms James is about, or how hard she works for her varied and large constituency.
There is nothing cosmetic about AY, except on Ratner’s end, and nothing unimportant about day care, if you need it in order to work, and still have kids.
She is, after all one of several hundred city council people, not the mayor, not omniscient, and not God. She can’t fix everything, either. Sometimes people have to get off their complaining butts and be a part of a solution, in some way, shape, or form. She has positions I don’t always agree with, but she also helps with several causes I work with, and no one is as helpful, or hands-on as Leticia James. She isn’t even my city council person, so I have nothing to gain from admiring her, or defending her, and unfortunately, I can’t even vote for her.
Do you think I can go by and ask about the broken sidewalks on Putnam between Downing and Irving? Why I think I will…
The gotcha comments here are completely unintelligible.
Well well lookie here Brownstoner grew some balls!
“What are you talking about, What? As you well know, we wouldn’t pass this on our way to (a) the subway (b) the supermarket (c) our office (d) our kids’ schools. You are correct that this is the first time in the last week that we walked between Grand and Classon. So what?”
So East on Fulton St is not Clinton Hill???? So you meant to say that you are not exploring to whole neighborhood????!! So I can conclude you make up shit about “Our” neighborhood Brownstoner, right???? If “Brownstoner” the blog is about the where we live at then you have FAILED miserably! You are so stupid to admit it wow dumbass, so I wasn’t off base calling you name huh???
“Since Brownstoner is about a hell of lot more neighborhoods than Clinton Hill. ”
No Brownstoner this is a FAIL, in fact a major FAIL!!!! I sat back and watch the construction of that office hoping that it would show up here but I was wrong to believe you had some skin in the place you fucking live!
“We’re still waiting for your Clinton Hill blog where you prove to the world what a street-wise man of the people you are…”
I don’t have to Blog about nothing in the community where I grew up and live in. You and the rest of the assfucks are in Hi-Jack mode but you know something Jon?
I can see the end of the war…. I don’t know when but I see it in the distance…
“Until then, keep throwing stones, or pebbles more like…”
Bricks Bitch, Bricks!!!
The What (Brooklyn’s Finest wish you could say that Jon!)
Someday (Soon) this war is gonna end…
Are you crazy, witchdoctor? Ms. James cares nothing about stopping those drug deals. She cares only about cosmetic things, such as raising her fist in opposition to the Atlantic Yards or screeching that underutilized daycare centers should remain open. Anything of substance or that requires hard work is sure to be avoided by her.
i think that it is fantastic, now let’s send the drug dealers on the corner of grand and putnam to the front of her building and have them hang out and transact their business there! then perhaps she will do something about them and their ILLEGAL business.
With all due respect I am suprised you didn’t break this earlier there were signs of this atleast two weeks ago. And I say that considering how close you are in proximity.
“Now she’ll also have to kick in for the BID fees that some of her neighbors are complaining about!”
Only if she has a real estate tax pass-through in her lease, which I wouldn’t include if I was the landlord and had a tenant who was only staying for six months.
I can’t afford Michael Allen. Oh, I’ve got a good enough job, but I’m already 25 pounds overweight.
What are you talking about, What? As you well know, we wouldn’t pass this on our way to (a) the subway (b) the supermarket (c) our office (d) our kids’ schools. You are correct that this is the first time in the last week that we walked between Grand and Classon. So what? Your attempts at proving that we’re “not in the neighborhood” are both baseless and beside the point, since Brownstoner is about a hell of lot more neighborhoods than Clinton Hill. We’re still waiting for your Clinton Hill blog where you prove to the world what a street-wise man of the people you are…Until then, keep throwing stones, or pebbles more like…
