Citibike should consider the roadway (or the sidewalk) frontage at Walgreens (formally Riteaid) parking lot, 1020 St Johns Pl, & the frontage at its neighbor next door - a storage facility. If on the sidewalk, then the parking lot wall would be a good site. Ethel Tyus
There are Citi Bike docks surrounding this part of Bed Stuy, but none located inside of it. This would be a major help to local residents - as would extending the Hancock bike lane that runs through Bushwick but ends at the Bed Stuy border for some reason!

Emailed Suggestion from Church of St. Gregory
The intersection of St Johns Place and Brooklyn Avenue cannot safely accommodate a bike station. Two of the four corners on St Johns Place are occupied by bus stops. The remaining two corners have a church and a funeral parlor where a bike stop would be disruptive so neither corner would be an appropriate location. Besides already having a bus stop, Brooklyn Avenue is already too narrow to for the heavy traffic volume.
strongly oppose a Citi Bike station on Dean Street Between Nostrand and New York Avenue. Our block has one large church on the west end of the block and two large churches to the Eastern end of the block. Parking is a major issue. The church on the east and west of Dean Street are also food distribution sites. Two days a week we have at least 50 to 100 people lined up to get food. Having a bike rack on Nostrand or NY Ave would add to the congestion and crowded conditions on the block.. Parking is already a major issue on our block.Most evenings I wait 1/2 hr to 1 hr for a parking spot. In addition Dean Street has a bus stop on Nostrand and NY Avenues. Based on the aforementioned issues I would request that a Citi Bike expansion project find another location. Besides we already have Citi Bikes on Dean and Franklin Avenue. Let's have some balance and plan for fairness for bikers and folks with cars.
On the North west side of the street is the St. Gregory Catholic Church and South west side of the street is a funeral parlor. Citi bike stations would be very disruptive to these institutions. On both corners of the eastern side are bus stops and the street sidewalk is very narrow. This location is not adequate for bike stations.
Important Citibike station: Right next to bike lane connecting the area to bed stuy and northern brooklyn.
right next to subway - perfect spot for last mile travel!
