Some questions are destructive. They aren’t worth asking. Just entertaining them, giving them a foothold in the recesses of your brain can let them fester. One of those questions is: Is there anything better out there?
In Crown Heights, street parking is a precious commodity. Local residents and small business owners, particularly along Kingston Avenue, rely on these spaces for daily use, whether it’s for their personal vehicles or customer access. So, when car rental companies use public street parking for their fleets, it raises eyebrows and frustrations.
I feel very alone. The phone rings, well mostly emails constantly, asking for money. I can’t afford to pay mortgage and food and my goodness everything else, let alone tuition and daycare, bookees, etc. Nevermind, shoes and coats. Forget about travel.
This article is for every teacher, therapist, coach, and anyone in our community who has believed in a child like mine. Your unwavering support is the reason my son thrives in his learning.
When I shared with people that I was going, I got mixed responses for my friends. Some were excited while others felt that going to Kazakhstan – or going to any of the “Kevarim trips” to Rabboseinu Nesieinu – was “against Hiskashrus” to our Rebbe.
That’s right — I lost a deal worth $70,000. Not because I uncovered some scandalous activity, nor because it was replaced by a sudden windfall. No, I simply lost it. After three weeks of hard work, the deal came down to the wire, and forces beyond my control caused it to fall through.

Picture this: Friday night, as campers gather around tables, voices ring out, criticizing the food served with disdain, while devouring home-cooked or store-bought delights—kugel, cake, schnitzel—the very fare they spurn in camp. And amidst them sits Mendel, perhaps quieter than the rest, his parents unable to make the pilgrimage upstate, either due to financial constraints or because they live out of sate or on shlichus.
A proposed massive Vital Brooklyn NYS Housing Development on the corner of Clarkson and Albany will soon contribute to a parking tsunami and parking surge that will extend several blocks.
Dear community, I encourage everyone to read the following piece on the growing dangerous trend in our neighborhood involving the reckless use of oversized electric scooters by young individuals. This issue affects the safety of our streets and the well-being of our children. Let’s have an open dialogue in the comment section, as I believe this is one of the best ways to bring about positive change among us. Thank you.
Lately I’ve heard stories of non-chassidish things happening in such environments where teenagers are away from their parents and around not so chassidish people. Knowing this, the camp directors outright continue to ignore this.
Rabbi: What you just said is very nice and inspiring for you. This motivates you because you believe that you are a miracle of the Rebbe. However, how should I inspire myself to dedicate myself to the Rebbe’s shlichus if I am not a miracle of the Rebbe?
In a momentous display of unity and civic engagement, our community Just conducted an election that surpassed all expectations. With 1811 ballots cast, our voices rang out loud and clear, shaping the future of our neighborhood.
The Lubavitch community, renowned for its deep commitment to Jewish education, faces ongoing challenges in balancing rigorous religious learning with comprehensive secular education. This balancing act raises critical questions about how much we actually need to teach our kids these days.
As a long-time resident of Crown Heights, I’m deeply troubled by the fear-mongering tactics surfacing in our community elections. Our vibrant neighborhood deserves better than divisive campaigns.
When I found out about this election years ago, I was excited. And I thought to myself how can I get involved. But then I was told that women aren’t allowed to vote.
