Zip Car Gets Fort Greene Religion

The brief campaign waged by the website Zip Fort Greene to bring the hourly car rental club to the area can be declared a success. We started getting emails from readers in the middle of last week reporting Zip Car sitings. Then Clinton Hill Blog spotted a pair of company reps handing out flyers outside the Clinton-Washington G train towards the end of the week. We swung by the DMK parking garage on Waverly between Park and Myrtle yesterday and, sure enough, there were a couple of new Mazdas parked out front; the Armory garage on Vanderbilt was rumored to also have Zip cars in stock but when we stopped by yesterday the guy on duty knew nothing about it. Has anyone in the neighborhood availed him/herself of this service yet?
