Our photographer labels it “next.” Just a little nighttime steam cleaning at the garage.

Here's an excerpt. “Three years ago, the words ‘Sunset Park’ weren’t even on anyone’s radar,” says Jospeh Anastasi, who opened the Tabla Rasa Gallery on 48th Street in 2005 with his wife Audrey. “It was like ‘Field of Dreams’—if you build it they will come.” The Anastasis say their gallery is becoming a “destination” on the city’s art circuit, and they’re seeing more artists nowadays in the neighborhood. “I see people walking down the streets all the time with Pearl Paint bags,” says Audrey Anastasis, who has a studio in the rear of the gallery. Relatively cheap space is what drew painter Griselda Healy to the studio she rents on 36th Street about a year and a half ago. “The rents are certainly much more attractive than they are in Red Hook, Dumbo or Long Island City,” says Healy, who pays $1,000 a month for her work space. “An artists community is evolving here because artists enjoy being in quiet places, and there...

So we got on Craigslist and called a few of the IKEA pickup and delivery services that adver Tue, 19 Aug 2008 11:58:39 GMT http://www.wikio.com/search/Red+Hook?rinfoid=68216632 2008-08-19T11:58:39Z http://www.wikio.com/search/Red+Hook?rinfoid=68199259 So that Red Hook IKEA seems to be doing quite well, thank you. McBrooklyn has an amusing account of check-out lines lasting well over an hour at the Swedish retailer this weekend: "We were so far back there was no way to even tell if we were in a cash only line or a credit and debit only line. People were getting pretty grumpy, let me tell you. A woman jumped ahead of us in line. When we pointed this out, she moved behind us, only to be challenged by the customer back there. She moved behind that customer, only to be berated by the next one. And so she worked her back to the back of the line, irate customer by irate customer." And don't get Lost City started on how B61 drivers have taken to hanging out at the IKEA parking lot, instead of driving their route during rush hour.
