I IThe year was 1975 and a renewed neighborhood and Brooklyn spiritwas bursting out everywhere. To illustrate the mood of the times, ThePhoenix staff members and their families that year got together on thesteps of Borough Hall for this photograph, each sporting a T-shirt thatproclaimed a Brooklyn theme. (Phoenix Photo)FOURTEEN YEARS AGONovember 30, is/2State Senator-elect Carol Bellamycontinued her busy speaking schedulein Brooklyn the week after winning theelection as Brooklyn%u2019s first womanState Senator. The problems sheviewed as critical to her district wererace relations, education, housing, andcrime. The Senator-elect criticized theNixon Administration for %u201clighting thefires of fear%u201d in the nation. The idealpolitician, she said, was %u201can activist ina decent sense,%u201d and that despite theirpower, politicians have to depend onthe people they represent.Fire damaged several stores onMontague Street. An existing supermarket was completely gutted, stockwas ruined in neighboring stores,which included a pet store whoseanimals perished in the smoke. Fivefire fighters were injured fighting theblaze.The Phoenix marked its first sixmonths of publication. In theNovember 30 issue, the publishersrenewed their pledge to providereaders with a forum for local opinionand coverage of community news. Thepaper%u2019s growth in ad revenues andreadership allowed for morephotographs and expanded communitynews coverage.TEN YEARS AGONovember 25,1976Controversy and confusion surfacedat a workshop held in Brooklyn forover 100 private citizens and government officials meant to clarify for attendees the complex issues involved inplanning for the City%u2019s long-rangepollution control and waterfrontrestoration programs. The workshop,one of five held in each of theboroughs by the Departments of CityPlanning and Water Resources, wasthe beginning of the City%u2019s attempt tocomply with the 1972 federal amendments to the Water Pollution ControlAct. It became evident in theworkshop that the dialogue over theissue was to become an ongoing process as both citizens and governmentagencies started to come to grips withcomplex federal pollution regulations.A task force was formed by theMayor%u2019s Office of Neighborhood Services (ONS) to investigate drug andcrime problems plaguing Fifth Avenuedespite the strong possibility that theeffort would have to be dissolved whenthe new City Charter took effect inJanuary. The formation of the taskforce followed several efforts to increase the presence of the 78thPrecinct and the Narcotics Squad inthe area by the community.FIVE YEARS AGONovember 26,1981Developer David Walentas of theTwo Tree Management Company tookover a dominant interest in the FultonFerry area between the Brooklyn andManhattan Bridges. Walentas wasplanning to redesign the Gair Complexof industrial buildings, which fell inthe area, for a combination of businessand residential uses. More than 2,000jobs were sustained by the manufacturing firms located in the Gair Complex.Controversy continued to surroundthe transferral of ownership of a Cityowned property on lower Fifth Avenueto the building%u2019s tenants. Continuedallegations by members of the community that the residents were involved in drug dealing angeredtenants and divided community activists.ONE YEAR AGONovember 28,1985Rumors of budding violations in 44new buildings in Park Slope Villagewere proved to be reality when one ofthe new homes on Butler Street received a violation from the BuildingsDepartment because it was leaning.The builder, Fulton Park Associates,began restudding the building in an effort to secure it.Adelphi Street residents strengthened their commitment to close andseal a City-owned building at 154Adelphi Street following the firebombing of a neighbor%u2019s car and threats tohis life and other property. When theblock association began the effort toclean up the neighborhood severalyears prior, the Department of Housing Preservation failed to respnd tocomplaints that the building hadbecome a hangout for drug dealers.And with a new housing project aboutto undergo construction in theneighborhood, the community renewedits efforts to seal the building in orderto make their neighborhood one worthmoving into.Wollman Rink officially opened forlast winter%u2019s ice skating season,despite unseasonably hightemperatures and heavy rains thatcomplicated the ice-making procedure.Chairman of the BoardD.B.
