This is Street Wars, a weekly series on the battle for space on New York’s streets and sidewalks. As the sun climbed in the sky, it was largely quiet. Birds could be heard chirping, and so could the shh of tree leaves swaying in the breeze. Occasionally the beeps from a garbage truck pierced the silence, as did the rumble of a subway train passing overhead. Many New Yorkers find the simple act of being a pedestrian in the city a challenge.

A five-minute walk to work and around $600 a month in rent was hard to pass up in 1990. Rodolfo Calica worked as a parking attendant at Maimonides Medical Center in Borough Park, Brooklyn. His wife, Queenie Calica, also began working there in the 2000s as a housekeeper. It made sense to them to move into one of the nearby buildings that Maimonides bought in the 1980s to serve as housing for its employees. Now, after spending more than 30 years in the home, the Calicas are facing eviction.

☆ Menachem Daum, 77, Filmmaker Who Explored the World of Hasidim, Dies
▼ + stars: | 2024-01-19 | by ( Joseph Berger | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

Menachem Daum, a filmmaker who co-produced a groundbreaking 1997 documentary that illuminated the cloistered world of America’s Hasidim, died on Jan. 7 in a hospital near his home in Borough Park, Brooklyn. She said Mr. Daum had been treated for congestive heart failure. The resulting film offered a complex portrait of a religious group usually depicted as somber and impenetrable; here it offered scenes of Hasidim joyfully dancing. Mr. Daum, though ultra-Orthodox, was not Hasidic himself. And although he had earlier made a film about caregivers for the aged, he was scarcely a seasoned filmmaker.

The time had come to fulfill those wedding vows. “We needed somewhere that felt like home,” Mr. Estep said.
