INC.Thursday November 8 (please note change) Christ Church Kane & Clinton Streets8:00 p.m.Fifth Avenue Fixes FacadesThe Fifth Avenue Committee unveiled its progress in improving facades along St. Marks Place between Fourth and Fifth Avenues on October 11. Patching, painting, cornice and door repairs on several buildings have so far been the results of the program, and the Ccmrrht^0 will eventually rework and repair some thirty-five facades along the street. The program is being underwritten by the Brooklyn Union Gas Cinderella Project, Manufacturers Hanover Trust and Pintchik Paints. To qualify to have their house faces redone, residents must make a $50 donation to the St. Marks Block Association.Crowds Go To Board FairCrowds of people filed through the auditorium of P.S. 58 at Carroll and Smith Sts. on Wednesday, Oct. 17, collecting leaflets and flyers, greeting acquaintenances and joining mailing lists in a Resource Fair sponsored by Community Board Six and the South Beach Psychiatric Center. With more than forty agencies represented, which vend local services ranging from youth programs to job referrals to church participation works, visitors were treated to a veritable printed onslaught on what is good, what is worthy, and what is where in the Board Six area (Park Slope, Cobble Hill, Carroll Gardens, Red Hook, Gowanus and the Waterfront).Also given out at the fair were newly-compiled Board Six Resource manuals, which tabulate and list local groups, centers, services and contact people throughout the area. For more information on the manual or resources available in the community, call Board Six District Office at 643-3027. %u2014LZGMyrtle Ave. Funds SoughtThe Coalition for Myrtle Avenue has submitted a synopsis of its Myrtle Avenue Development Plan to Community Board Two and is applying for $500,000 in federal Community Development VI funds for commercial revitalization. The Coalition consists of Mvrtle Avenue Merchants Association, Pratt Area Community Council, Society for Clinton Hill. Willoughby Walk Cooperative, The A & P, Citibank, and Bedford Stuyvesant Restoration Corporal ion.The funds sought would be used to improve facades and sidewalks along Myrtle from Vanderbilt Avenue to Emerson Place in the Fort Grecne/Clinton Hill area. The Coalition hopes to attract new businesses to the commercial strip, which the proposal states is suffering from deterioration and has numerous vacant storefronts at its eastern end.Slope Library Moves SiteThe Park Slope Branch of the Public Library at 4316th Avenue has temporarily closed its doors and is scheduled to re-open on December 10 at 10 am at an alternate site. The new location will be at The Knights of Columbus Hall at 303 8th Avenue (between 5th and 6th) and will continue to administer library services until the long awaited renovations totaling up to $480,000 have been rendered at its original location.Golden Rails Hospital PlanBorough President Howard Golden has written Mayor Koch protesting the effect the M ayor%u2019s %u201c Plan for Improving the Effectiveness of Hospital Services%u201d would have on north Brooklyn. Golden, writing also on behalf of Brooklyn%u2019s elected officials and Community Board Chairpersons, denounced provisions in the plan which, Golden asserts, would close Greenpoint and Cumberland Hospitals before Woodhull Hospital is fully operational.Woodhull, the newly built facility in Williamsburg, is costing $18 million annually in debt service and maintenance even though it is not open, and Golden maintains that the hospital should be opened as soon as possible, with a period of %u201c shake down%u201d before other hospitals are closed. He said that if the State %u201c accepts both the full cost of building Woodhull and the entire $14 million annual lease payment%u201d in its Medicaid reimbursement calculations, the hospital could be run for the same $40.8 million annually which it now costs the city to run Greenpoint and Cumberland.Antic Is Chilly SuccessThe several hundred thousand people that turned out to the fifth annual Atlantic Antic on October 14 were perhaps a bit chillier than ever before but, say the organizers of the mammoth street festival, the spirit of the event was hardly dampened. %u201c We felt really terrific about it,%u201d enthused Judy Bush, coordinator of the Antic, calling the annual festival a major event. %u201c The weather could certainly have been a little warmer-but it was certainly a wonderful Antic.%u201d She said that merchants along the avenue reported doing better than ever before, perhaps because the cooler climes %u201c attracted a different crowd, and kept people moving,%u201dSome merchants had expressed qualms about the size of [he Antic in the early planning stages last yea%u2019-, feeling that it had grown perhaps a bit large and impersonal for the Avenue. %u201cThis year, it was really successful,%u201d Bush reiterated. %u201c It really worked out very well.%u201d %u2014LZGGarden Given GrantThe Brooklyn Botanic Garden was given a $25,000 grant by the Institute of Museum Services to help keep up and care for the grounds and exhibitions it sponsors. The amount given is the maximum that can be awarded through the program. The Garden was one of 403 mstitutions to receive monies, selected from more than 1,700 ipplications.Page 4, The PHOENIX, Oclober 25,1979
