Walking around Select Art Fair (all photos courtesy of Ventiko) Bushwick is proudly weird. And weird people keep weird pets. Whether it’s a large yellow python whose owner hangs him on a tree at St. Nicholas Ave, or a big cat on a leash that frequently hangs on Bogart St. A Bushwick artist named Ventiko is one of those proud, weird […]

More options for spring workout in Bushwick are coming your way!

Attention Bushwick Vietnamese food lovers! We have a newcomer on the scene!

The owners of 56 Bogart gallery and artist studio building aka The BogArt, Ted and Marianne Hovivian are developing another mixed-use artists’ work space at 13 Grattan St

Increasing affordable housing and creating community green space are both laudable goals to pursue in the ongoing evolution of NYC’s neighborhoods, but a recent decision from city hall to invite developers to turn community gardens across the city into construction sites for new affordable housing seems to pit the two objectives against each other

Have you been wondering what happened to The Coffee Shop on 203 Wilson Ave after its owner Michael Avila posted posted a series of disturbing anti-semitic rants on its social media this past October? The place has posted a handwritten note in its door announcing that it has closed temporarily and it will reopen under a new management, noticed DNAinfo’s Serena Dai yesterday

Nowadays, it seems everyone wants a piece of Bushwick

One could argue that the bar scene in Bushwick has reached its saturation point

Yesterday we informed you that the infamous annual bar crawl SantaCon has sent a letter to Bushwick bars announcing that this year’s drunk fest will be held in Bushwick on December 13

One Bushwick bar owner opened his inbox the other day, only to find out with terror that Santacon, the (in)famous bar crawl of thousands of drunken Santas will be held in Bushwick this year

In case you were in doubt, Bushwick ideas indeed are worth spreading

1 Knickerbocker opened quietly last Christmas, and then steadily garnered positive press throughout the spring

Stores facing rising rents forced Beacon’s Closet out of Williamsburg to Greenpoint, and subsequently to a new store opening in Bushwick

Bushwick has never seen a house like this before, and not just because of its amenities

By now, we all know that Bushwick is, pretty much, the center of the Universe

So while you were Xmas-ing, Kwanza-ing, and bitching about Hannukah being over way too early this year, all this happened in Bushwick

Are you concerned about the proposed rezoning of the former Rheingold Brewery complex? As we’ve reported, many concerned Bushwick residents have felt left out of the approval process for the rezoning, which would allow for the construction of nearly 1,000 apartment units in brand new 7- and 8-story apartment buildings near the Flushing Avenue J-train stop in northwest Bushwick

At around noon yesterday, the City Planning Commission of NYC met to discuss a wide-range of city projects, including the rezoning of Rheingold Brewery in Bushwick

The part of Bushwick that once housed the Rheingold Brewery, a major beer producer for New York State in the 1950’s and 60’s, is a pretty sizable parcel of land

We almost thought that nobody in this town cared about the potentially illegal excluding of the public from the vote of Community Board 4 on the rezoning of Rheingold Brewery

Not too long ago DNAinfo praised Bushwick for its bookshop greatness, even going so far as to call Bushwick a literary mecca (ooh lala, well thank you!)

Bushwick is prime stop and frisk territory

It seems that development plans at the Rheingold Brewery site in Bushwick are one step closer to the completion.
