Some of you may not know that Morbid Anatomy has a space in Greenwood Cemetery.

A couple of years ago we learned that Kensington Stables had declared bankruptcy and the building was on the market. Residents of this area near Prospect Park were upset to hear this news.

Soon it will be “back to school” time for parents and students around the New York City area and this means many of us are getting a list-full of school supplies at our local office supply chain, drug store or ordering them online.

The quiet and mostly residential section of Brooklyn’s Windsor Terrace doesn’t have a lot of commercial space. When a new spot opens up in the area, residents take notice. The coffee shop at 144 E 4th Street, Windsor Coffee, is already a neighborhood favorite. It gets great yelp reviews and usually has a good amount […]

Located in the center of Brooklyn just south of Prospect Park, this diverse neighborhood is home to gorgeous prewar buildings and Victorian homes along it’s tree-lined streets. Ocean Parkway, which was finished in 1880, starts in Kensington and runs all the way down to Coney Island. The Parkway offers 5 […]

Over the years if you’ve headed towards Prospect Park from the Kensington or Windsor Terrace areas you may have seen folks riding on horseback towards or from the park. At the very least you’ve noticed a horse trail with evidence that horses were recently present in the form of manure. These beautiful animals belong to […]

It’s no secret that we are fans of Brooklyn Brainery. We blogged about this community education storefront years ago when they opened their first shop on Court Street in Carroll Gardens and we occasionally share info on classes they are hosting. That space on Court has since closed and they are now housed at 190 […]
