Björk Moving to Brooklyn Heights [Brownstoner]
Just for the benefit of those who are not familiar with Brooklyn Heights, it is the schools, both St Ann’s and Packer Collegiate, that attract young families with children to Brooklyn Heights. That is one of the reasons why there are so many young families in the the Heights. There is also the Friends School, Montesorri, Grace Church school, Plymouth Church school. The place is overrun with little kids, which makes it so amusing to read certain posters who think the Heights is an elder community with no young people. Those folks either have an axe to grind or have honestly never set foot in the neighborhhod.
I love Bjork, but she is hardly a celeb to draw any attention to herself or her family in and around Henry St. As for the orange outfits, she is Icelandic, what would expect?
“orange kimono clad ”
She must be trying to keep a low profile.
I believe that they’re making the move in part to put their little tyke into St. Ann’s – I happened to be on a parent’s tour of the school last year with Mr. Barney and the orange kimono clad Ms. Gudmundsdottir
> Haven’t we been through this before?
Possibly maybe.
As residents they need to do something for BAM’s Next Wave Festival.
tyburg6- The door man will be accepting some freaky UPS deliveries no doubt.
Haven’t we been through this before? Perhaps twice already?
Yea, did they buy in that old-people’s home with the penthouse that we were all dissing?
I thought that youngish families didn’t move to Brooklyn Heights?
Am I to think that some of the regular posters here are misinformed???
