Neighborhood: November 2006 Archives

This shot of the Flatbush American Apparel's mixed-up marquee is via Dope on the Slope, who has a fabulous eye and a great blog! Oh, and happy day after Black Friday--hope those Nintendo Wii bruises are healing.

Stuff to check out this weekend:

• One of my favorite online shops, Fred Flare, has a pop-up store in Williamsburg for the holidays. It's at 175 N 10th Street, and it's open this Friday through Christmas Eve. [Via FashionGeek]
• Prospect Park's Kate Wollman Rink opens on Thanksgiving from 10 a.m.- 1 p.m., 2 p.m.-6 p.m. and stays open all weekend long. It's $5 admission ($3.50 kids and seniors) and $5.50 skate rental.
• Check out one of Brooklyn Museum's cool exhibits: Ron Mueck's gigantic people, animalistic watercolors by Walton Ford and an Annie Leibovitz retrospective.
• Celebrate a new Bonita location  that's only three G stops away in Fort Greene. [Via Brooklyn Record]
• And reason enough for second helpings of turkey: The F train isn't all screwy--yea for holiday tourist season!

Our friend over at RandomBrooklyn took this rather disturbing/amusing picture of the Whole Foods site in Gowanus. Brings new meaning to genetically modified veggies.
