Under the BQE

Once upon a time, a girl lived on the edge of Williamsburg and Greenpoint, just Under the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway, in the mythical kingdom of North Brooklyn. She walked around and talked to people, took pictures and thought about things. She wrote things down and was happy.

Quotes

"For now at least, Greenpoint’s stunning views of Manhattan are still mostly clear, unobstructed by the kinds of high-rise developments that are starting to sprout — and wither — in Williamsburg."

“'The macroeconomy of the city is affecting the development of open space in Greenpoint.'”

"A lot of the renters, these young hipsters, are very energy conscious.'"
