Just saw this on Gothamist. Thirteen made a video of the tombs and catacombs at Green-Wood Cemetery. Cool stuff. They should do one on the Red Hook Grain Terminal.

Anybody know where I might be able to score a goose tomorrow? I know it's a little late but there's always hope. My little guy wanted to try it after seeing "A Christmas carol" last night. Thanks!

-Yes, we had planned to light 3 trees, but the Parks Dept. wasn’t able to install power for the tree by the Rec Center- Sorry

All are welcome- young + older, short + tall, musicians, poets, singers, dancers…

Just about to move to 23rd St. and will need someone/service to help with the pooch on weekdays. Anyone use anyone trustworthy in the area?

Anyone know an honest mechanic in the neighborhood who won't take me to the cleaners for all kinds of things I don't really need when I go for an annual inspection? In the past it's been an oil change, when I had less than 3,000 miles since the last one. Or an air filter, spark plugs, etc. I know I need to be safe but really.

Any one familiar with this block or neck of the woods. moving here with wife, son and two dogs very soon. I know traffic is pretty heavy on 4th ave. crime? supermarkets? fresh produce?

thanks!
