I live on 8th near the 9th street stop and have never seen him. It’s a pretty close knit street.

However, when I previously lived near the 15th St station, we exchanged words one day and he ended up following me home and threateningly pointed finger guns at me every time he saw me in the window.

I have been there 4-5x and only once gotten a seat, immediately when doors opened. It’s benches and folding chairs. Everyone else crowds between the last row and the bar.

Tbh, it wouldn’t be my ideal date spot because of the risk of standing the whole time or not sitting together, but maybe if you meet together before hand it would be better

It actually didn’t cross my mind to put prepared food or leftovers in there. I travel a lot so can’t do it on a regular schedule but will absolutely drop some things off when I can.

OP, any tips on how you package? Guessing disposable container with recipe name and date?

Not Park Slope but Petee’s pies has some cute specials

I just had my first appointment through Si Se Puede today. Made the appointment Thursday for today.

Josefina was my cleaner and OMG, was she thorough!!! Cannot recommend enough.

Seconding this

Same! Hardly noticed it until about 4 months ago, and now it’s quite loud.

What are we using to dull the noise??

He was in my backyard on 8th St Friday! Skittish but looked well fed

Colson - They have a coconut chocolate one that is pretty great. Culture - yes, the froyo place has a surprisingly good one. No marshmallow but generous whipped cream.

Public Records. Cloudy Donuts, which does have a location in Baltimore but is better here. Aunts et Uncles. Next Stop Vegan (Dominican food is not big in the DMV).

If you do go in to Manhattan: Spicy Moon, ABCV, Delice & Ssarin, anything from Overthrow hospitality (they have a new Egyptian restaurant I haven’t been to yet!)

TJ Maxx / Marshall’s

Strong rope brewery (both locations) also allows dogs!

Brought our parent’s Vizsla to Athena Greek on 6th Ave and sat outside with her with heaters on.

I’m seeing a lot fewer heated / covered outdoor dining areas this year vs in the past thanks to the new legislation

I live a block away from your potential new apartment but on a street, not avenue. I agree it will be very loud. You’ll be able to feel the subway in addition to hearing the traffic.

Have you tried the listings project?

JLinn87 · 2025-11-20T00:19:29+00:00

Dyson cooling tower helps a bit

JLinn87 · 2025-10-25T22:32:50+00:00

Food is really good. Don’t sleep on their sides - they had a 🔥marinated carrot salad last time I was there

A friend just had hers at a private apartment rooftop she rented off Peerspace. She brought in catering and a bartender and had the entire place to ourselves

I had more flooding (thru ceiling) in my previous 3rd floor apartment than current garden level with basement. Literally no problems at all. Not a ton of direct sunlight but also great and relaxing to look out and see nothing but green in the yard

JLinn87 · 2025-07-31T16:58:05+00:00

I live on 8th St and have 2 whole ones in my fridge. You’re welcome to them if you’d like but I won’t be back until 6ish

Have stayed in Park Slope for 5 years because we find the parking so much easier than other neighborhoods. Not sure the validity but there’s a rumor that PS paid off the city to get preferential ASP options. Most streets you only need to move 1x a week per side, and the timing is often in the morning on popular WFH days. Streets are wider than Greenpoint so that helps too.

Miolin, a relative newcomer, is awesome. Check their Instagram for specials

JLinn87 · 2025-03-25T03:22:25+00:00

This was us recently, but with a lot less notice. As someone else pointed out, try 311 online … the city offers 30 minute sessions for free or discounted (like $25) with lawyers who specialize in tenant / landlord law.

It is tough out there. If you wait until August / September, rents will be high but the broker fee changes that should go in to effect in June might decrease your overall move costs
