October comes down Kennedy Boulevard in handfuls, the street trees letting go all at once when the wind swings around off the bay. Brooklyn and Leaf Landscaping meets that season where it lands — raking, clearing beds, hauling off what piles at the curb, and keeping the grass cut short and even into the last mild weeks. Bayonne yards are compact, so leaves gather fast in a corner and sit wet all winter unless somebody moves them. Getting them gone is half tidiness and half kindness to next spring's grass. When the last barrel is loaded, the lawn looks like it has been handed a fresh start, which is more or less the idea.
