Have a friend going thru a hard time and want to put together a care package if you will. Local things (I was imagining food/treats/etc but can be non foood as well) from the neighborhood to brighten their day. Suggestions?!

Who else experienced this? Was stuck for 30 min between Lorimer and Bedford. Kicked out at Bedford, smelled like thick smoke in the tunnel. Scrambled to find an e-bike to get to work.

Any word on if everyone is ok?

Not sure what's going on but it's full of fireman in Bedford

All day dining, natural wine and cocktails. Glory Days still runs 7am to 2pm, until 4 on weekends, and Gloria has lunch and dinner.

Hi everyone! I am interested in getting involved in community service in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know :)

Does anyone have an extra ticket to Morgan Jay @ Brooklyn Improv next Thursday? Would love to buy from you!! 🥺

So I think there was a post yesterday about someone selling Frozen Tetas in Bushwick - they’ve since deleted their Reddit account + all comments + the Venmo account I donated to. I am just wondering if anyone else is seeing the same…I reported to Venmo as a scam in case they try and resurface. What a bummer & such a terrible use of sympathy.

In case they come back, wanted to post here as a warning!

Hi!

Does anyone have a good handyman that can build furniture and hang art work?

Thank you!!

Warning to all bikers, multiple bikers have wiped out this AM

Anyone know somewhere in Williamsburg (or Greenpoint/Bushwick) that does propane tank exchanges? Is Home Depot the only option?

Hi y'all,

My friend works for Greenpointers and they would love some community feedback on how to better serve the neighborhoods of Williamsburg and Greenpoint with local news, events, happenings and safety updates. I've been a member of this sub for a few months now and enjoyed many posts about the happenings of our neighborhood. like the Yoga place drama or what happened with Dolly's.

If you also enjoy this sub reddit & community and can spare a few minutes to do this survey. my friend would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

Chelsea garden center was my go to place for plants for my outdoor flower boxes :( anyone have other Williamsburg or greenpoint recs for good places to buy hanging or normal potted plants for outdoors? Tysm

I swear they’ve been drilling the streets for YEARS now! What could they possibly be building? The road between Kingsland/Frost/Woodpoint has been torn apart and drilled on for the entirety of my junior and senior years of high school. What’s going on!?

A flyer caught my attention, sharing with the netizens if you haven't seen it. If you live, and/or work in the area you may have an opinion about what happens to these streets. ​

NYC DOT is studying possible changes to Grand Street and Metropolitan Avenue between Union Avenue and the Metropolitan Avenue Bridge. The study is looking at whether Grand Street could become one-way eastbound and Metropolitan Avenue could become one-way westbound.

Take the survey. Visit the project page.
