Here is some information we received from NYC small business services we’d like to share with you. Some of this is pre-storm prep, such as preparing for the high winds but much of it has to do with snow and ice removal. Basically it goes through what business owners should do once the blizzard dies […]
Hey all. Hope everyone is snug in their homes or soon will be. It’s starting to look pretty nasty out there already. The wind is picking up and the snow is beginning to stick. For those who still have to go out and run some errands (get food, etc;) most stores in the area are […]
We drove past this sign, at 365 4th avenue between 5th and 6th streets, the other day and snapped this quick picture. You can’t tell from this pic but the space is huge. It spans the entire block. Gymboree Play and Music has classes for children ages 0-5 and with this amount of space kids […]

The FAB, or Fulton Area Business, Alliance has recently hung this banner that we sponsored on Fulton and we’re pretty psyched about it. FAB is a wonderful organization dedicated to improving the Fulton area in so many ways. Just read this list of from their website of all their accomplishments. “FAB provides supplemental sanitation services; […]
Realty Collective’s Mary Gaglio recently rented out a place on Visitation Place near Van Brunt Street to a gentleman who was planning on opening a business making suits. This was a very recent lease signing but Mary seemed to think he’d open fairly soon. As of a couple of days ago it looks like there […]
A recent addition to the Atlantic strip in Boerum Hill is a sandwich shop called Boomwich. We passed by yesterday and snapped some shots of the outside. The menu is filled with mostly classic sandwiches but with a twist. Carmelized Onions / Pickled Jalapeno / Fried Shallots / Nach-yo Cheese / Firey Cheetos is the […]
You may have never heard of the organization in New York, Rabbit Rescue and Rehab. Understandably, because we hadn’t either.
