If you’re looking for some fun post-work plans this week, we’ve got a fun, theatrical option for you

In the past few weeks, we’ve had the distinct pleasure of hosting some pretty amazing local photographers on our Instagram

How many times have you heard someone say, “This neighborhood is just getting so expensive”? If you live in Bushwick then, yeah, probably a lot

Buildings transform constantly in this city – AKA in this ever-changing neighborhood – and with each new transformation comes a new layer of paint

Winter in NYC is probably my least favorite time of year because, sure, the snow looks pretty for about three minutes when it first begins to fall, but then it either melts and turns into brown sludge, or it freezes and turns into sheets of ice

One thing that makes NYC – particularly Bushwick – such a wonderful place to live is its diversity, the fact that not everyone comes from the same place, time, and culture as you

When Strauss Yawney first reached out to us about hosting a Detritus-themed Insta-Takeover, my first thought was: Finding trash in Bushwick? That shouldn’t be too hard

Remember when you were little and you’d do those puzzles where you had to identify what was in the picture but it was always too zoomed in or kind of fuzzy or a weird angle to tell? (Some of us were never very good at those

It has been a long and wonderful year of Insta-Takeovers

One thing that makes Bushwick so wonderful is that it has lots of history on its streets – it’s a constant mesh of old and new

The Bushwick Starr has that distinct black box theatre smell; it’s paint, dust, and something else I can’t put my finger on

Have you ever walked by something abandoned on the sidewalk and thought, “I wonder how that got there?” Now imagine other people, who you may not know, collaborating with you to create that story

When an artist who goes by the name “Napkin Killa” requested to take over Bushwick Daily’s Instagram account, I paused for a moment

You may or may not know me but I joined the Bushwick Daily team in 2011 – first as Copyeditor, then as Managing Editor and now as Contributing Editor. Back then, I was working a day-job that made me feel distanced from all things creative, and I had just moved to a new neighborhood, Bushwick. I was stuck […]

Have you noticed that Bushwick is home to tons (and we mean tons) of churches? We did – and so did  Dimitri Manousakis, our photog for the latest installment of Insta-Takeovers! Dimitri, a photographer, mixologist for a Greek restaurant, and resident mixographer for Bushwick Daily, wandered our broad neighborhood and captured the exteriors of many Bushwick houses of worship on camera

Bushwick is full of treasures great and small, sometimes so small they go unnoticed

Oh fall

Halloween just might be Bushwick’s favorite time of year

You’ve seen Bushwick’s golden glow splendor at sunset – but what happens after the sun goes down? Bushwick Daily photographer Alonzo Maciel arrives at the scene to capture the evening streets in all of their calm, neon-lit glory, that’s what

It seems like everyone has been talking about Bees Knees Spicy Honey

Everyone knows that the folks who work at the counters of our local businesses can make or break a customer’s experience

“ACTION!”

What did you notice when you first met Bushwick? If you’re Bushwick-born and raised, you’ll remember things through a child’s eyes

You didn’t realize just how much goes on behind the scenes of Bushwick Daily

Did you miss us? Our Insta-Takeover series went on a post-end-of-summer hiatus, but we’re back in full force! We may or may not have been hungover from all the party-centric photos that Sam Kellam posted during our most recent Insta-Takeover

When Jen Charboneau and Bernard McNerney met as ESL teachers in South Korea, they had no idea that they would someday finish a 12,000-mile trip to promote community-driven art through pop-up events across the United States

Instagram Takeover – Suzi Sadler – Bushwick sign, paint Do you like paint? Of course you do, you live in [or you live near or you love] Bushwick! It’s no surprise that virtually everything in our art-centric neighborhood is covered in the stuff. You’ll find interesting paint jobs on buildings and streets and cars everywhere you […]

Instagram Takeover – Nicole Craine – Bushwick sunset, swings Holy moly, Bushwick at sunset is incredible. Last week Nicole Craine shared some ridiculously beautiful photos of the magical time between school/work/etc. and bedtime in an Insta-Takeover called “5 to 9.” This entire Insta-Takeover project is most certainly not about the numbers, but I have to brag on her behalf – you folks […]

When Spencer Starnes proposed that his Insta-Takeover theme would be the south side of Bushwick, I didn’t expect it to be so

What do you know about your corner? No, not the one at the end of your block – I’m talking about the corner of your building
