Neighborly
Posted on May 31, 2010 | 1 CommentForums, friends the world round in fact has had one piece of feedback when we share with them the news that we’re moving to the Toren, “the projects”. Yes, the Toren is next to the Projects, outdone only by the Oro — which abuts the... -
Neighborhood: Brooklyn Flea
Posted on May 30, 2010 | No CommentsI’d heard a lot about the Brooklyn Flea, everyone from colleagues at work, Bravo’s odd but absorbing Novogratz’s, and of course the Brownstoner. I expected to find a treasure trove of unbelievable knick knacks, and that’s not far from the truth. On Sunday the Brooklyn... -
Neighborhood: Bedouin Tent
Posted on May 28, 2010 | 2 CommentsThe best value in Brooklyn - seriously. -
All the single ladies
Posted on May 26, 2010 | No CommentsGenerally, the only good Monday is the one coming up, Memorial Day. Otherwise, it’s just dreary and exhausting to even think about. Leave it to my girlfriend Sam to turn it upside down. “Do you want to watch the premier of Sex and City 2?”... -
Urban legends
Posted on May 25, 2010 | 1 CommentPart of the problem when you’re moving to Brooklyn from Manhattan, is that well … it’s not Manhattan. We might try to tell ourselves that it’s not a big deal, that in fact, it’s even better! But it’s not. Certainly Williamsburg, and Cobble Hill make... -
Be@schermerhorn
Posted on May 23, 2010 | 2 CommentsA new / returned development opened it’s doors this weekend, Be@Schermerhorn located on 189 Schermerhorn. Curious since our broker had suggested we look at this development (before we locked in at the Toren). We didn’t come in with the most open mind, who can forget... -
Dim Sum a Go-Go
Posted on May 22, 2010 | No CommentsWe received an invitation for a Dim Sum Mimosa brunch this weekend at The Toren’s bi-level rooftop. Josh and I are never ones to pass up Dim Sum, especially from dimsum GoGo we signed up. My aunt and uncle came with us, we figured it... -
Welcome INN
Posted on May 21, 2010 | No CommentsI excitedly read the Curb’s post yesterday that the Sheraton in downtown Brooklyn had opened. I checked out their generic website and read every word. While, I remain excited that a hotel has opened in Downtown Brooklyn, finally giving the Marriott company, I was underwhelmed... -
Pioneers
Posted on May 20, 2010 | No CommentsWhen I think of Pioneers I imagine something like the Oregon trail with families fully loaded on their conestoga wagon headed out west. I figured that unless you were traveling to space there weren’t any “real” pioneers left. But as we were wandering the Downtown... -
Loose Change
Posted on May 18, 2010 | No CommentsWe are fully committed now. That means we’ve signed the Purchase Agreement (contract), forked over our down payment, and secured a commitment letter from the bank for our 30 year fixed. At this point I’ve gotten over whatever twinges of sadness I had left at...
