“Prospect Heights is in the NY Times Travel section today, with 2 pictures of my shop! The photographer came a few weeks ago, and I totally forgot about it:

Nice!”

Indeed, Prospect Heights was featured as “Brooklyn’s New Hipster Outpost” in the NYTimes.com Travel section.  There is a slideshow of a handful of shops on Vanderbilt in addition to the article. While local shop owners were pleased with the shout-out, others found the location of the article amusing, if not insulting.
Nor’easter:

“It’s pretty cold that the NYT put this in the TRAVEL section.”
