This Week in Ditmas Park

The weather might not feel spring-like, but that’s not stopping these crocuses from popping up on the malls on Albemarle Road. To keep up with other signs of spring, and all other news from the neighborhood, like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter, and subscribe to our daily newsletter. If you’ve got a story idea, a question, a complaint, anything, send us an email at editor@ditmasparkcorner.com.

Here’s a recap of the past week:

• The stolen Cortelyou Road taco truck may have been found!

• A new traffic light came to Ditmas Ave, but not before another crash.

• Police are searching for Marie Adelson, missing since Monday.

• Remembering Frank Brandow, owner of the old Cortelyou Lounge.

• An amazing officer is spending time (and his own money) to help local kids.

• Hope you’re all enjoying some hamantaschen today!
