The book business is booming in Brooklyn. Na’eem Douglas from News 12 gives us the scoop.
Gossip alert! A story of Brooklyn (celebrity) love begins. Perhaps we’ll start seeing these two strolling around Boerum Hill hand in hand. xo
Next time you’re in the mood for a movie night, visit Cobble Hill Cinemas. They have the best 1980s video intro ever. And don’t forget to “turn off your pagers and cell phones.”
What’s your favorite block? I’m partial to #21 - Best Block for Brownstones, or perhaps #31 - Foodiest Block, because Court Street definitely has some foodie gems.
I just came across the whimsical designs of Wayne Pate and realized his design studio is just a few blocks away.
Brooklyn’s musical culture: the famous Bargemusic “floating concert hall” via newyorkhabitat. I must try this!
An attempt to draw all the buildings in New York by James Gulliver Hancock, an illustrator originally from Australia currently based in Brooklyn.
I have fallen in love with Brooklyn, I’m going to buy a little house in Brooklyn and live there.
