After lunch I spent about an hour strolling around and it felt like I could have stayed even longer. There are so many restaurants and stores that you can wander without any plan and still find something interesting. The whole space has this open creative energy that feels very Brooklyn. You see families, people working on laptops, groups hanging out, and visitors just exploring. The courtyards are really nice to walk through and the art installations give the place a fun personality. It feels like a mix of food hall, shopping area, and outdoor hangout spot all in one. There are great food options, coffee spots, and little shops that make it easy to spend time there without rushing. It is the kind of place where you can grab lunch, walk around, sit outside for a bit, and still feel like you have more to see. I left thinking I need to come back on a weekend when I can take my time. It is a really enjoyable spot in Brooklyn and perfect for a relaxed afternoon.

It's perfect if you just want to wander, try a few different bites, and chill for a bit. This is the second time I come to visit for the hot sauce expo. I got lucky with parking right under the train station. It was Sunday, so it was free! Next time I'll definitely give myself even more time to explore, because I want to visit every shop!

We highly recommend working with Peter McGuire of Smith Hanten Properties--and not just because…read morehe's probably the best-dressed real estate agent we've ever met. After our tenant of 15 years moved on, we turned to Peter, whose deep knowledge of the local market helped us price and position our newly renovated apartment perfectly. He created professional photos and an excellent video, then marketed them broadly, generating strong interest right away. Peter carefully screened candidates, met them in person, and kept us informed every step of the way. The result: a great tenant, a smooth process, and the confidence that we had a true professional (with great style) in our corner.

I'm finding myself difficult to write this as I know this will blemish the amazing 5 star record…read more But my experience is SOOOOO awful it should not go without telling. James Lola is a horrible individual. And when you recall stories of despicable brokers, he embodies ALLLL of that. This perspective comes from a renter interested in a home James has exclusive rights to. This apartment is located on Hoyt St and I feel terrible for the homeowners he represents. The one major issue was the ability to get into the home. Due to the fact that there were current tenants residing in the space, access was limited. This is very understandable to myself and all. I followed up with James for several days until he responded with an option that worked. Sidebar - I had to do all of the follow up. On my final attempt to confirm a time with James, he responded by asking if my partner is coming. Let's put a few things out there. 1) If you're a New Yorker, We all know how cut throat the real estate industry is. 2) It's preferable by brokers that all parties are in attendance for the viewing, but when it doesn't work due to limited access then it doesn't work. And my partner is a doctor with irregular hours. 3) It's not difficult to know right away if an apartment is a good fit or not. And if it is, a second visit is not unwarranted. Back to the story of James. James responds with "we require all adults who will occupy to view together, at least the first time. We can't rent an apartment to people who haven't seen it, and whom we haven't met." Now, I personally have seen an apartment without my partner. He has done the same. And we do understand this is a preferred option but given the difficulty of being able to get access because of the current tenants, the very limited viewing hours, attempting to see the place for a week, and the fact that my partner also has a hard schedule due to his career, I would have HOPED there would be some flexibility since I could see it on Wed and he could see it on Friday if I felt this would be a great fit. After James response, I decide to immediately call him and have a conversation. And THIS is where sh*t hits the fans!!
