🌱 DUMBO Train Changes + Cleared Encampments Leave Homeless Behind

Up and at 'em, Brooklyn Heights-DUMBO! Here's everything you need to know to get this Saturday started off right.

First, today's weather:

A p.m. shower in places. High: 57 Low: 41.

Here are the top three stories today in Brooklyn Heights-DUMBO:

1. Meet Heba Kadry, a sound engineer who, from her studio in DUMBO, is the last stop for many of the world's top indie singers' music before their work reaches our ears, including the likes of Björk and Big Thief. In this interview, Kadry pulls back the curtain on the often secretive industry. (Pitchfork)
2. While the NYPD, under the orders of Mayor Adams, may have cleared out homeless encampments under the BQE last week, many of the houseless individuals formerly occupying them still remain in the area without most of their belongings. They're still allowed to sleep on the streets, just not with a tent. (Brooklyn Paper)
3. There's no Brooklyn-bound service at High Street station this weekend, and no C train service in either direction, with Brooklyn-bound A trains running on the F line to Jay Street-Metro Tech. Welcome to your weekend transit guide. (Brooklyn Heights Blog)
