Halloween Memories in Brooklyn Heights, the return of Plymouth Church’s Yankee Fair and a Plan for Saturday’s Packed Community Calendar
I suppose we could have a debate, but I’d win: there’s really nothing more Fall than Halloween in Brooklyn Heights. And with a world going sideways, we need community, small humans and canines in costumes, Fall lovers and spectators, pumpkins, homemade treats and gratitude in this harvest home. This Saturday, October 28th, is shaping up for a […]
A Good Showing for Brooklyn Heights and Environs at LGA’s Terminal B
I may be a year late to the transit hub party, but I have finally seen the light—or at least the sunrise—on the newish Terminal B at LaGuardia Airport. I guess I’ve been flying Delta a lot—which typically involves a tiny tease of the swanky new Terminal C and then a dreary detour back through […]

The ride was indeed smooth and steady, […]
Clark Street Station is OPEN!

The station had its “soft launch” last night, and its “Grand Re-Opening” this morning (well, “Grand Re-Opening” for those of us who were asleep when it officially re-opened). The businesses located in the station must be relieved, having […]
Clark Street Station STILL CLOSED
Well, it’s no longer April, and as of May 1st at 8:35am — despite the rumors of a late Saturday night opening — the Clark Street station is still closed. I guess always bet against an American infrastructure project being on time and/or on budget — especially in NYC? We will try […]
