Turn Bay Ridge ‘eyesore’ into a soldier’s home, asks pol
A dilapidated house that has been the target of complaints from 79th Street residents for several years will finally be torn down, according to local elected officials, who said they’ve been pushing the city to do something about the messy property for ages.
The Department of Buildings has issued a demolition order for the house at 237 79th St., between Ridge Boulevard and 3rd Avenue.
Councilman Vincent Gentile and state Sen. Marty Golden both said they’re pleased that the city is finally listening to their pleas.
