      <![CDATA[Changes are happening don't know if it's for the best, but one thing I will always have in my memories is growing up there in the 1950s and 1960s where the neighborhood was like a family. But with these changes it will never be the same.

      <![CDATA[The $1700 dollars, post-college-pretentious-non-contributors pay for their closets in Williamsburg, could really be used in their hometowns in the Corn Belt. I suggest they start contributing to Brooklyn rather then blowing their money on American Spirits, Four Loko and Retro BS.

      <![CDATA[The people who write and read this magazine live in just 3 neighborhoods and seem to huddle only in the safe centers of them, with the occasional 'dangerous' jaunt to an underground party or on a shitty apartment hunt with a spurious broker. I'll admit, it's okay to completely live in your own bubble, and it is also okay to exclusively promote businesses that advertise with you, but don't include all of Brooklyn in your fucking title.

How 'bout plain old 1900. Some of those Argyle Road houses are actually a little forward looking for the High Victorian era.
