Welcome to Lettertown!
Good thread on Gawker this afternoon on two Bushwick residents referring to their neighborhood now as "BillyWick" or "BushBurg."

Your remarks and lively debates are welcome, whether supportive or critical of the views herein. Your articulate, well-informed remarks that are relevant to an article are welcome.
However, commentary that is intended to "flame" or attack, that contains violence, racist comments and potential libel will not be published. Facts are helpful.
If you'd like to make personal attacks and libelous claims against people and businesses, then you may do so on your own social media accounts. Also, comments predicting when a new business will close ("I give it six weeks") will not be approved.
Totally missed this thread. I would have suggested yunnietown for the EV; Vapid Hill for Murray Hill; Gentrifiedvania for LES.
ReplyDeletePeople who refer to eastern EV as Alphabet City, invariably, are tourists and/or originally from Shaker Heights, Ohio.
ReplyDeleteHey Grieve, are you (or your SO) EasyEVG at Gawker?
ReplyDeleteI'll take that as a yes.
ReplyDeleteHi anonymous...sorry for the tardy response...I've noticed the EasyEVG name before at Gawker -- that's not me. A lawsuit is forthcoming -- because I'm not all that easy!
ReplyDeleteWell, most of those gawkers are lawyers, so you better be prepared. Prepare to be doc reviewed (i'm sure that's what all the lawyering they do).
