We at Bushwick Daily are proud to announce the second coming of Bushwick-based radio station, Newtown Radio! With a whole new website, blog, and weekly live series, the station has re-marketed itself as a force to be reckoned with, in Brooklyn and beyond. I visited their studio over on Meserole street, which was nestled into a dark warehouse neighboring The Wick, one of the hood’s most buzzed-about new venues. I talked to Colin Ilgen, who runs the station with two partners, Mark Brinda and Tariq Abdus-Sabur, as he discussed Newtown’s history and future.
