We marched this Saturday and were not surprised to see hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers participating! We marched until 4pm and, when we left, the massive crowds were still flowing and it showed no signs of slowing down. The loving and togetherness vibes were similar to the Women’s March back in January but it […]
We blogged about this local start-up company when we started seeing their adorable little dog houses on our neighborhood sidewalks and now we are learning that Dog Parker is taking their boxes and leaving the city because of issues they have been having with local transit officials.

Last year on January 21st people all over the United States (and the planet!) marched in support of Women’s equality and a variety of other basic rights that are important to us all. This year it will be on January 20th and we hope that everyone is spreading the word and making plans. We know […]

The mission from the website is to “create and fund enriching field trips for under-served youth. These day trips, guided […]
I am a Red Hook resident and rely on my bike daily to get around. NYC’s bike infrastructure has improved by leaps and bounds since I moved to the city from Milwaukee seven years ago. The De Blasio administration and the city’s Department of Transportation are making strides in their “Vision Zero” initiative, adding miles to protected bike […]

Those little brown composting bins are everywhere near our Carroll Gardens office. The program is doing well in the neighborhood and people seem to be embracing it across the five boroughs.
