"The Transoms of Red Hook"
The Red Hook section has just gotten major new additions, including a lot of Todd Shipyard before and after Ikea demolition photos.
Here's some of what the site says about Red Hook:
...The western Brooklyn neighborhood is now in line to get some high-income spillover action from neighboring Cobble Hill. Will high rents and million dollar condos vault over the Gowanus Expressway and and engulf this isolated province, whose quiet, not-quite tree-lined streets have been silent since the big cargo ships stopped docking at Erie Basin? Will the coming of Fairway Supermarket and perhaps, Ikea furniture turn Red Hook into a big parking lot with its narrow roads crammed with Cobble Hillers and Sunset Parkers looking for lettuce and night tables?Highly recommended.
Well, let them come, because in Forgotten NY we'll record perhaps the last days of Red Hook before it becomes a soccer mom or trust fund kid mecca. On this page, we'll concentrate on the more desolate areas of Red Hook, before they become less welcoming to people with a Forgotten NY income.
