WolfishMusings-

Thank you for the info re: Rabbi Yisroel Hirsch.

If I find something online related to learning and halocha which looks OK to me (knowledgeable, correct [frum] hashkofa) but I don’t know the author myself, I feel obligated to mention that fact as an implicit “check out his bona fides for yourself” disclaimer.

david1999-

There are mechitzos encompassing Brooklyn on three sides at its waterfront. These include, gates, seawalls and the Belt Parkway.

1) I assume when you say “there is no rabbim traversing them” you mean 600,000. Is this correct? (the belt at rush hour gets pretty busy)

2) Do you mean seawalls above ground level, or also those at ground-level, such as the the one next to the belt parkway where it abuts the water?

3) By “gates” do you mean Seagate’s wall or are there others as well?
