Neighborhoods don't just happen. With unprecedented detail, local historian Henry Stewart (True Crime Bay Ridge) reveals how a quiet Dutch farming community in Kings County was transformed into a bustling small city. Along the way he uncovers the forgotten stories of local Native Americans, slaves and artists while exploring long-demolished cemeteries, elevated trains, country clubs and waterfront resorts. How Bay Ridge Became Bay Ridge is a revelatory portrait of how a Brooklyn community was built, park by park and block by block-the story of Bay Ridge as it's never been told before. Henry Stewart is a journalist. He lives in Bay Ridge, where he has always lived, with his wife.

World-famous kidnappers, shot outside a Shore Road mansion. A local barfly, burned alive in her Ridge Boulevard apartment. A third-grader at St. Anselm's, plucked off Third Avenue. These are just a few of the true tales of murder, kidnapping and gunplay featured in this collection, culled from the blog Hey Ridge, each set on the streets and in the homes of Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. Did the Mafia dump bodies on Oliver Street? Was a would-be serial killer bludgeoning his victims near Flagg Court? Using contemporary newspaper accounts, as well as trial transcripts and out-of-print books, local historian Henry Stewart assembles vivid accounts of the crimes, the victims, the perpetrators and the neighborhood, revealing that this sleepy, suburban community has always had a darker side-which many residents would sooner forget. "A dark delight...Stewart raises the bar by laying out these tales in chronological order, tracing the evolution of Bay Ridge through its crimes...well written and compulsively page turning." - Tim McLoughlin, Brooklyn Noir

A landlord, gunned down on Gatling Place. A guidance counselor, blown up on 91st Street. A sophomore at Fort Hamilton, executed in Owl's Head Park. In this standalone work, local historian Henry Stewart follows up True Crime Bay Ridge with eleven more stories of thievery, kidnapping and murder. Together, they illuminate the neighborhood's past by focusing on the lives of its unluckiest and most notorious residents, from the bank robbers who ran a roadhouse on 92nd Street to the madam who managed a brothel on 86th Street. Spanning a century, from 1886 to 1982, More True Crime Bay Ridge uses contemporary newspaper accounts to uncover a parallel history of this quiet community, which has long had a place on its margins for the dissolute and the doomed. Henry Stewart is a journalist and historian. He lives in Bay Ridge, where he has always lived, with his wife. "Nobody knows Bay Ridge quite like Henry Stewart. Get ready for another wild ride: in punchy tabloid style, this is a bullet-spattered journey to the end of Brooklyn that you'll never forget." -Kevin Walsh, Forgotten New York, Forgotten Queens

What farmer is there who has not, in the majority of seasons, felt that some at least of his crops could have been largely benefited and increased by a copious supply of water at critical times ? Market gardeners, whose crops on the average reach a value of several hundred dollars per acre, and to whom a loss of crop is partial or complete ruin, every year experience a vast amount of loss which might have been avoided were a supply of water available.
