    In reply to Sarah Jessica and Matthew Fleeing to Brooklyn?
    I kind of want to move to Brooklyn but my parents (who grew up there) are insisting I move back to Manhattan. I write "back" because that's where I was born. Since I'm young and still sort of dependent on them, they get a say but how about my say?! I'll be paying for almost all of it so I want to pay less by living in Brooklyn but they say I'll pay a ton to commute every day and such. What are everyone's thoughts on Williamsburg?!

    @Renata Halpern: Industrial, but young. Over-priced, and a lot of apt's are not in very good shape. All in all, pass. Fort Green is hot, Greenpoint gives a lot of sq. ft. for your buck, Prospect Heights has the same brownstone charm as Park Slope but slightly cheaper. Kensington and off of Ocean Ave, even larger spaces, but you're getting far out there on the train. Basically, the farther away from Manhattan, the cheaper it gets.


    I say go for it. When you see how much further your dollar goes, and the kind of space you can get, you'll be hooked. Not to mention it's beauty and char, which it has a lot of. The coolest people live in Brooklyn (ahem, self-servingly raises hand).


    Oh, and for the die hard Manhattanites on here, you're so right: the B&T crowd IS horrible. It's such an ordeal to sit on a train. Please, stay where you are!!

    I'm sure the abundance of converted barns and stables in the West Village is just making her nervous - I'm sure Matthew would hate for her to startle and bolt.

    Most of the people I know fled park slope ten years ago, when rent hikes pushed out entry-level publishing industry single people. I can't imagine who lives there now.

    I'm just glad to see that Brooklyn won the derby. It was neck and neck for a while, but the longshots faded and the odds-on favorite pulled away from the competition.

    @DeerDog: This isn't exactly above-the-foal news. You don't need a Gallop poll to realize that they weren't meant for Mane Street USA. Hopefully the paparrazi won't be a few lengths behind them when they move, and they can finally know the peace of a photo finish.

    From the west village to gowanus heights? will their power friends travel all the way out to Brooklyn? wasn't this a plot point on SJP's privileged sex-and-shoes show? who gives a shit? Maybe my dog on the way to the park?
