Heath and Michelle in Brooklyn Heights?

26heathhouse.jpgA reader just sent us a link to a Forbes.com article that reports:

"Recently, A-listers such as Michelle Williams and Heath Ledger have answered the bohemian call of Brooklyn, plopping down $3.5 million for a four-story brick house with a three-car garage in Brooklyn Heights."

Looks to us like Forbes may have made a rare fact-checking blunder, as everyone knows the Brokeback pair are shacked up in Boerum Hill. Maybe it was the $3.5 million price tag that lured the Forbes writer into assuming it was Brooklyn Heights. That, or the magazine's famous attention to detail doesn't extend to its online progeny.

geez, a bit tacky to publish a pic of their house don't you think?
I think Forbes article also a bit dated...because hasn't DeNiro moved to UWS - and they lump him with Tribeca crowd

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Andy's on Montague. Being from Manhattan, I'm used to eating the best Chinese food in the world and the only Chinese in Brooklyn I find remotely edible is Andy's. Still sometimes too greasy but very tasty without the gelatenous sauces

one time i got a job offer at forbes and they explained that they paid a pittance because they expected everybody there to be subsidized by their incredibly rich robber barron type parents. and they weren't kidding. so obviously they aren't looking for the brightest bunch of researchers over there.

What does Andy have to do with Forbes article? Also I can't imagine anyone who knows Brooklyn calling or thinking Brooklyn Heights is remotely bohemian.
