Bklink: Gowanus, Italy

"The Gowanus seems to endlessly inspire. Real estate speculators. City historians. Mafia hit-men. Artists. Ah yes. The light of the Gowanus has been compared to Venice. Even Hepcat, who takes many a picture there, says so. What is it? The romance of the industrial landscape? The Kentile sign? The view of Manhattan and the elevated subway train? And now, a well-known Brooklyn artist is showing her pictures of the Gowanus on the Upper East Side." La Serenissima in South Brooklyn!--OTBKB
