Dyker Heights

Think about Bayside and Douglaston and Northeast Queens.

Most of Staten Island, much of South Brooklyn, Bay Ridge, Diker Heights.

It also includes two of the most densely populated places in the country, the Upper East Side and the Upper West Side.

So all different neighborhoods.

Police say two men were hit on the head around 9:00 last night and have injuries that include lacerations.

The Burger King is in Dyker Heights at the corner of 65th Street and 14th Avenue.

Both victims are 36 years old.

They are listed in stable condition.

The other districts, 10, 12, and 18 in Brooklyn, which include Dyker Heights, Bay Ridge, Borough Park, Canarsie, four, five, and 10 in Queens, Corona, Elmhurst, Ridgewood, Maspeth, Middle Village, South Ozone Park, Howard Beach, and Bayside, and two and three on Staten Island.

That's both Mid-Island and the South Shore.

The Tour de Bronx returns to the Bronx on Sunday.

The Department of City Planning has identified 12 community districts in the city that produced the lowest rates of affordable housing over the last five years.

Well, on that list, parts of the Upper East and Upper West Side, Middle Village and Douglaston in Queens, Borough Park and Dyker Heights in Brooklyn, and the Staten Island's South Shore.

Those districts will now be subject to a new fast-track review process for rezoning.

That shortens the review process and removes the City Council's final vote, which leaves the City Planning Commission with the final say.

So I formed a committee.

Now, I represent Bensonhurst and Diker Heights, predominantly Italians.

So I formed a committee, asked the community leaders to come to my office, and immediately they responded to form a committee to preserving an Italian-American heritage coalition.

And I asked them a very simple question.

So you having a good week? Chances are one lucky Brooklynite is having an even better one.

There's a new lottery winner, a $1 million Powerball ticket sold in Diker Heights at Bola Market on 86th Street.

I definitely knew it wasn't me.

Still got to get up and go to work every day.

It's a lucky area.

And employees who work here are wondering if it was one of their regulars that won.
