We saw this sign at 26 Court Street the other day. ProHealth Urgent Care has nine locations around Brooklyn, one being only blocks away from this spot at 330 Court Street.

It’s an interesting look at how […]

We don’t normally post about other blogs but as I was looking for pictures of Clinton Hill’s Halloween Walk, which is put together by the Society for Clinton Hill, I came across their blog.
