Palermo Pizza will reopen on CIA & Cortelyou, selling $1 slices.

• Across CIA, a commercial opening has some of you hoping for Vietnamese food.

• iPhones continue to be a target of thieves.

• But at least one thief, suspected in a home robbery, has been arrested.

Two public hearings are scheduled about the MTA and the NYCHA.

• Classes start soon for budding musical geniuses.

• A map shows a rise in home prices in our area, but not many of you buy it.

• Some people rang in the new year with gunfire, and filmed themselves doing it.

Here’s how you can recycle your Christmas tree.

• A Community Supported Fishery will be making deliveries at Sycamore.

• An Australian visitor met some of our neighbors and took lovely photos of them.
