is that why youre moving, DH? hahhhaha

amen, DH. now, am I gonna watch sports in my dirty white hat tonight or cultivate my ironic moustache? decisions, decisions…
get used to lamb. everyone in williamsburg is either a trust fund hipster or a murray hill frat boy. every chain store that opens is “the end” of the neighborhood. it takes at least an hour to get anywhere on the L train. crime is worse than anywhere else in brownstone brooklyn. everyone who lives in the neighborhood now is looking to move to park slope or ft. greene. every bar or restaurant is overrated because everyone in the media lives there and chances are there is an identical restaurant in brownstone brooklyn that is 1,000x better.
people who don’t live in williamsburg sure love to make broad brush statements about people who do… yeah, there are some douchebags–point me to a neighborhood where there aren’t any. the pace and quality of development are bigger long term issues. I’ll admit I was guilty of burg-bashing before I moved here, but all in all it’s a great place to live.

– I meant “new found artistic roots” as referring to the change from its century as a neighborhood for local manufacturing workers.
I realize that williamsburgs art scene isnt “brand new”
i used to work in a gallery in tribeca. they seemed like younger UES types, which honestly, didnt bother me. i prefer people with tons and tons of money. it’s the regular old upper middle class and the leisure class that sours me, not downright rich people. plus they didnt push anyone out, they created their own little rich people enclave from scratch.

“It is very much in demand for the young, unattached financial male types.”
I really don’t know where this is coming from. I live in Williamsburg and have never gotten this impression at all, rife as it is with stereotypes. At best, they come on weekends to do a little old fashioned slumming, but I do not see them moving in droves.
“(can’t say much about the people tho)”
tribeca’s zipcode is always amongst the top in the country for highest median household income – so not sure you’d like them that much Rob – hahaha.
tribeca IS nice. i really like the area (can’t say much about the people tho).
