Your comment is plain ignorance. You need to get out more.

community center?
October 23, 2014 2:28 pm

Why would anyone want a community center- to mix with goim? The next step being intermarriage.

banquet hall

Now the kinus can follow the Rebbe’s directive to have the banquet in Crown Heights.

we need a jcc

Devorie Halberstam can help us make this into a commnuity center with a gym basketball court pool etc.

yeshivah, eishel, plus

Mendy Hendel: here’s your cheder, elementary school, mesivta and dormitory all in one. Perhaps one wing is separate enough to turn into an additional men’s hotel for shluchim / kinus / Tishrei (Eishil could then be used for the girls/women in Tishrei).

THE RENT IS TOO DA-N HIGH
October 22, 2014 2:28 pm

BUT IF BUILDING PROJECTS INCREASE SUPPLY (DEMAND STAYING THE SAME) PRICES SHOULD FALL.
FOR RENTS TO GO DOWN BY HALF, RENTABLE UNITS MUST DOUBLE

please a community center would be awesome!

Nostalgia Note

Who else remembers the armory as the site for huge bazaars every year? I always loved to shop for the real bargains there. the place to me (as a kid) was so huge and overwhelming and marvelous…….

You have a recreation center on st marks
October 22, 2014 10:23 am

But It need to be renovated and accessible for all CH people ….make it nice resedetial housing for the expended park slope /willy yuppies they are mostly in need to be settled here ….and built few low cost projects for others in some places around to help everyone be settled .,.

A Project
October 22, 2014 9:37 am

A huge housing project. With lots of benches for the people what have no jobs who live there, is what we need. Make it happen!

I'd take a Walmart
October 22, 2014 12:33 am

or Costco. Or Shoprite. Or Whole Foods. Or…. a cool shopping Mall.

be honest

a community center would not be a safe place anyways. it would turn into these ‘cultural’ places
for the sake of crown heights, a great hotel/conference center would bring meetings, banquets etc to the neighborhood and business to the stores. CH is a great place to visit, but there is no where to stay Build a first class hotel/convention center. It will bring lots of jobs, opportunity, economic growth and lots of$$ for the local restaurants, businesses, etc. i vote hotel all the way.

HELLO! COMMUNITY CENTER!!!
October 21, 2014 11:27 pm

It’s about time we have a state of the art gymnasium, pool, and other recreational things in our neighborhood!!!

Where are the Lubavs?
October 21, 2014 9:52 pm

We are fast becoming a minority in the neighborhood that we helped foster into what it is today. I don’t see any members of the Chabad Crown Heights community represented. If you want your suggestions to carry any weight show up at the next meeting..
More importantly, let the community politicos hear from you.

Pls give something tangible to all the Jews that voted for you

a community center would be amazing!!!!!
October 21, 2014 8:39 pm

A community center is what crown heights needs!!!!! hotel is also great but community center is better!!!!I agree with#3!!!PLEEEAAASE!!!!!!😊

Dont see any Jews there
October 21, 2014 8:36 pm

Well one thing clearly stated here is that who ever was there do not want a hotel.
So if Jews want a hotel, you are going to have to show up for the meetings!

Community center
October 21, 2014 8:19 pm

Totally agree with no. 3……

Totall agree with number 4
October 21, 2014 7:41 pm

A hotel would be great for Crown Heights.

crown heights needs a hotel
October 21, 2014 6:59 pm

crown heights needs a good hotel, there are people coming here from all over the world and there is no place to stay. having a hotel would bring people to crown heights, bring business here and money to the neighborhood. imagine business conferences here and the money it would bring to the shops.

What about a community center!
October 21, 2014 6:18 pm

Crown heights is from only communities without a community center with basketball courts pools arcades ice skating/roller skating gym a lounge etc. And is funded by the government and monthly memberships!!!
Please act!!

October 21, 2014 5:32 pm
