I don't get it. I lived there. What about this picture is supposed to be more attractive than the tony parts of Brooklyn? It's basically not that much fun to live in the picture you posted overall. It's not quite rural, it's somewhat suburban, and it's only glancingly urban. Have you ever lived in either area before?
That is actually why i voted for Los Angeles instead of Brooklyn.
haha I mean jajajaja at the bragging about rental rates.
What that shows is people are willing to pay a lot more to rent in Brooklyn but as far as actually buying they wont pay Manhattan prices because Brooklyn is not on the same level of desirability. I already knew that btw.
Shall we talk about under construction projects and/or approvals or no? Or more talk about amenities? What happened to the food discussion? You probably don't want to mention that right? This is too funny to me. . . .
Why do you think the focus is shifting towards Brooklyn in the media, hence the global awareness/frenzy now? NYC marketing at it's best of course. You don't seem to realize this is not just for now, this is the future of New York. Deal with it. Brooklyn will never be a city of it's own, no matter how many times City-data tries to make that happen. Truly the only borough I can see leaving/seceding is Staten Island.
Lol, is this a photo of Denver? Nice I suppose if you like a area like that.
This is what urbanity/city looks like Downtown Brooklyn.
And it's in it's infancy stages. . . . =)

Between the Westside and Brooklyn or LA and Brooklyn?

I guess between the Westside and Brooklyn. If we do L.A we would add the other boroughs and I don't think any other city at the moment have more cranes up and approved projects with funding/under-construction.
We were waaaaay down the Q Line actually, and I have been told by Nei that the neighborhood is probably Sheepshead Bay. We spent most of the time in Manhattan, mostly doing the tourist thing, so no good recommendations unfortunately. It might not actually be that Jewish, just really Russian - I think my aunt is from that neighborhood.
I'm 90 percent sure this is the Metro stop we got on and off at in Brooklyn: http://goo.gl/maps/EhneP
Sheepshead Bay is way out there. There's Randazzo's out there, but I don't think I've visited anything else in the neighborhood. If you ever want any recs for parts of Brooklyn for the next time y'all visit, let me know. On the same token, do you recommend anything that's popped up this year for LA? I'll be there until pretty much the end of the year and would love to see what new developments have happened in the time I've been gone.
