Shopping Local is Getting Easier

I am a big, no, huge fan of shopping local. Brooklyn is chock full of boutiques and services, the idea of going to Manhattan just to buy something is becoming extinct. As published in this week's New York Mag, Flight 001 (pronounced Flight 1) has a new location in Boerum Hill on Smith near Dean and Brooklyn Industries are popping up like the Gap for hipsters in every Brooklyn neighborhood. Services are also becoming more popular and convenient, not to mention more unique than Manhattan's offerings. I'll take a look at those soon. But I would be remiss if I didn't mention the fact that Prospect Heights has been getting major props as of late. Just check out this week's Look Book.
