Damn sirens have been none-stopped for like 10 mins. Can smell the smoke from Fort Wadsworth. Hoping everyone is safe there🙏

It is new. Only been opened since December and I loved going there since I’m up the block.

Why are ppl saying the nail salon was always closed? They recently opened back in December and I’ve been going here since. Really nice ppl, what a shame.
