January 9, 2015 By Free Williamsburg

How long do we have to wait before we get a rollercoaster in Williamsburg? Via Eater: Hotel developer Toby Moskovits is planning to open an 150-room hotel just down the street from the Wythe Hotel, and with it the most twee bar to ever come to the hipster capital of NYC. If the hotel gets […]

Colony 1209: tone deaf condo in Bushwick looking for "settlers" to colonize "new frontier"

September 3, 2014 By Free Williamsburg

Given all the displacement happening in New York’s most rapidly gentrifying neighborhood, you’d think developers and the PR companies would show a little more tact: Here in bohemian Bushwick, Brooklyn, you’ll find a group of like-minded settlers, mixing the customs of their original homeland with those of one of NYC’s most historic neighborhoods to create […]

"Professional party guy" opening Bushwick restaurant with permanent Spin the Bottle table

August 6, 2014 By Free Williamsburg

Because drunk, slobbering, college-aged PDA and scrambled eggs go hand-in-hand. And just like that Bushwick became a little bit dumber: East Williamsburg and Bushwick locals will soon have a place to play Spin the Bottle — all day and all night. Amancay’s Diner, a 24-hour restaurant and music venue, is set to open at 2 […]

August 4, 2014 By Free Williamsburg

We’ve just gotten used to Jefftown. Please don’t start calling the neighborhood on the border of Bushwick Brooklyn and Ridgewood Queens “Quooklyn.” The Awl has some alternatives that we MUCH prefer: 1. Woodbush 2. Ridgewood 3. Bushwood 4. “Well my mailing address is Queens but I feel like I live in Brooklyn.” 5. Bushridge 6. […]

Inside the sober rave in Williamsburg

July 21, 2014 By Robert Lanham

Thanks to Gothamist for doing the leg work. There’s just no way we could take sober dancing and animal masks at 6:30 AM. A $20 ticket to Morning Gloryville gets you the following: three hugs upon entry (one from each of the Morning Gloryville crew), a plastic lei, and three and a half hours of […]

There's a Beef Jerky Mount Rushmore in Columbus Circle

June 12, 2014 By Free Williamsburg

We assume “Meat Rushmore” smells to high hell, but its still pretty damn cool. Snack lovers are celebrating in Columbus Circle, where art director Alex Valhouli and Jack Link’s beef jerky company created “Meat Rushmore” — a 1,600-pound replica of Mount Rushmore covered in three different varieties of jerky. “We put about 1,400 working hours […]
