Bushwick Clicks 5/12/08

Bogart St., Bushwick, by Miss Eagle Eye
Street of 20 Nationalities: A talented couple move into a beautiful house in the refreshingly intact Stockholm Street Historic District, removing all traces of previous, uh, “renovations” and transforming it into a bright, tastefully decorated living space. The guy built the kitchen cabinets himself!
Warehouse of 20 Nationalities?: And NYT also discovers the McKibbin lofts, for some reason an object of obsession for media types, defining all of Bushwick though it’s barely even in it.
Post, Times, Courier…: No confirmation except for this one post on a baseball fan blog, but it seems Rupert Murdoch may have bought the Ridgewood Times-Newsweekly — which means he now has an iron grip on all two of our local papers. The other one is the Bushwick Courier. I know you never heard of it, but trust me, it exists.
Enough, Already: Another person who thinks they are so sharp pointing out last year’s witticisms. “East Williamsburg” is likely to actually be Bushwick! Get it? She liked the apartment in Greenpoint because it was new construction and near a comfortingly “suburban” Key Foods.

So cool you could link from the NYT real estate article on the couple that bought a “farmhouse” in Queens to an older post of yours about the block of Stockholm street. Very informative!
Also, they seem to have turned what was a two-family into a one-family.
