Has Brooklyn Industries gotten too big for its britches in Park Slope? It seems, on the contrary, that its britches may have gotten too big for the retailer. The store is expanding its location on 7th Avenue and 9th Street to include the storefront next door, which is currently taken up by Urban Optical. (The glasses shop, in turn, is moving a couple storefronts down, to the space that was recently vacated by Il Camelion Salon.) Michelle Williams to the contrary, it appears there’s no shortage of shoppers looking to snap up Brooklyn-branded t-shirts and hoodies. GMAP

  1. Racked has learned that British clothing chain Topshop is going to open its first stateside store at 478 Broadway near Broome Street in Soho, taking the place of neighborhood landmark Yellow Rat Bastard.

    Guess not for long, 12:26.

  2. And to the southwest corner, the Brooklyn Burger Bar (Food Sucks) was Jack’s (fine institution of higher learning) and Smiling Pizza was well, Smiling Pizza. I forget what was on the other corner where the realty is?

  3. For about a decade and a half, (back when the vast majority of Park Slope home owners were actually born and raised in Brooklyn) that space was occupied by Comics Plus.

    Correction: it’s not Eurotrash; its Midwestern trash who aspire to being Eurotrash that is driving BK’s economy.

    Why are people still talking about Michelle Williams? Aren’t there plenty of other chubby middle american dwarves who lived in Brooklyn for a year before discovering they couldn’t hack it?
