We’ve been hearing that Sunset Park is growing and now here is a story of a huge retail lease, the biggest in Brooklyn for the year 2014, that proves it. Corporate giant, Bed Bath and Beyond, has leased a space at Liberty View Industrial Plaza. The home goods chain will not be the only one […]
There’s been a January deal going on at Red Hook Pilates that we heard of and wanted to share, since everyone still has a few weeks to take advantage of it. The special is below, along with the new schedule for January. Red Hook Pilates is located at 414 Van Brunt Street. Walk ins are […]
We’ve created a new Pinterest board entitled “Greenwood Cemetery“. Check out pics of this beautiful and historic cemetery, like the one above. Most are taken by us but we added a few that were taken pinned by others. If you’ve never been, it’s definitely worth a trip to walk around and take in the grandness […]
There are a couple of children’s programs going on a Carroll Gardens Branch Library on Union and Clinton. One is a relatively new weekly event called Book Adventures, which is today at 4:15 and every Thursday at the same time. It’s for kids 5 and up and involves a read aloud followed by activities, such […]
We saw this sign by 220 Atlantic Ave announcing the Cobblestone Catering, also known as Cobblestone Foods, is making the move to this location. Not a huge move granted since the original space, at 199 Court, is simply around the corner from this spot. Still good to know for those who frequent the place. They […]

From shared office/creative space in Red Hook to drinks and shuffleboard in Gowanus, unique ideas seem to be the theme of 2014. Royal Palms Shuffleboard opened up in Gowanus close the beginning […]
This sign has been up for a week or so. Thought we’d share it for anyone who hasn’t passed by in a while but ever visited this corner neighborhood drugstore. This place will surely be missed. Not only did it have that old school neighborhood feel to it, if you frequented the store you would […]
We passed by 257 Smith Street the other day and saw this new sign for Ramna. At first we thought it was a a new place. there are so many new restaurants opening on Smith street and we assumed this was one. However when we looked it up online it seems that the name has […]
