This guy really should have a street named after him!  Because of Mr Pintchik, we're getting fancy indian and hip korean and so much more, where McDonalds and Hooter's would have reigned.  

I'm even in favor of his multi-floor high profile mega sport's bar adjacent to the stadium because it's going to act like a lint trap for out of towner stadium visitors.    Another neighborhood save you sly dog!

fascinating!

Good point, @Vanderbilly !

Wow. Some big and exciting changes.

Crunch, orange theory, soul cycle, byklyn all on a block or two... the workout density is of chelsea proportions!

Few people that own large amount of properties seem able and willing to put in the effort to create thought-out districts.

The whole becomes greater than the mere sum of the parts.

Ramen has arrived on Flatbush. Not sure if this one of theirs
