A new wine bar and restaurant just opened at 244 Smith Street called Big Tiny. You may be able to guess that it’s named after the size of dishes it offers. On the menu, which you can view photos of in our gallery below, they have a section for “big bites” and “tiny bites”. They […]

The corner storefront at 244 Smith Street in Carroll Gardens was occupied by Brooklyn Bead Box a short time ago. They were having 90% off sales at the end of June and we saw the brown paper covering the windows not so long ago. It seems as though the new shop, Born, went up overnight. […]

Right across the street from the Smith and 9th Street subway stop is a corner storefront that used to house Kimchi Grill. This little kimchi-centric restaurant was really yummy but unfortunately they closed shop a short while ago. Whenever we pass by a vacant space we wonder what will be the next business that opens […]

Formerly two spaces in one, a juice bar and Shelsky’s of Brooklyn, which moved up to Court Street near Atlantic, 251 Smith Street has had brown paper in the windows for a short while. We are now seeing signage! A small piece of paper has been put up in the window that announces a place […]

For many years now a row of storefronts on Smith Street have been out of commission. As you can see in the photo above, there are four or five in a row (with 252 Smith Street being in the middle) that have been boarded up for a while. Whenever we have passed by in the […]

Walking down Smith Street the other day we were seeing so many shuttered doors and papered windows. Shops come and go on this bustling street spanning from Cobble Hill to Carroll Gardens. One particular darkened space felt a bit like a punch in the gut, though. Our last neighborhood video store, Video Free Brooklyn, has moved. So […]

This Italian restaurant isn’t new to the Brooklyn scene. They have a second location near the Barclays Center on Dean Street, though food is […]
