Downtown Brooklyn is one of the greatest places on earth

It's a clusterfukk and because of gentrification, all the stores will be gone soon and replaced by expensive housing that will be occupied by rich tech bros and other assorted CACs.

Ask yourself who lives in Saurons Tower

Holy shyt. Corner of Hoyt? What's there now.

I use to work in Downtown Brooklyn and loved taking walks during lunch. I haven't been around in 6 years and been meaning to go and walk around

A bum ass discount pizza spot

These days I don't see much difference between BK and Manhattan.

I’ve lived in my brownstone all my 40 years. Before it was a quiet little known sublet of fort Greene. Was neighbors to many stars including Chris rock, Michael from good times and Jason su.. su… the dude from SNL and horrible bosses. It was more friendly and neighborly, when my mom passed the whole block came to give their respects and help me and my dad. Now most of moved out or died off (even my dad is sick in the hospital) and these new folks took over and just stare at you in disbelief I live with them. They all not bad but there isn’t a sense of community like it was when I was kid. Parking is an adventure sometimes. But all in all, I love my brownstone. I love my little part of Brooklyn. The food options are great. Very quiet still despite high rises and more people around. Clinton Hill son

The owners when they moved to fulton (where las santas used to be) were on some real fukk shyt not paying the employees

Shout out. To Albee Square Mall. Iykyk. Toys R Us. Buster Brown to cop school shoes. Wendys and playing in the park in Fort Greene.

Last time I was in NY, I only had a chance to visit Harlem and Queens. I guess Brooklyn is the next stop

I walk in peace but that don't mean I don't carry a big stick in case things get real. I'm like De La Soul

nikka you was walking up to people with the hammer, wasn't you.

You'd probably like BK, a lot of free fun stuff to do and all kinds of food. Unfortunately all the original residents have been moved out.

 

[Wiseborn]

Its still dope but it was when better in the 80s and 90s.

waaaaay better back then.

Is Fort Greene part of downtown Brooklyn? I’m from the Carolina’s but that part stood out to me. Probably my favorite part of NY
