Closing Bell: The Poop on Brooklyn

Fed-up Brooklyn residents posted a bunch of flyers about dog poop and rats this past week in Brooklyn Heights and Greenwood Heights, and were documented by no less than three blogs (Concerned Citizens of Greenwood Heights blog, Curbed and Brooklyn Heights Blog). We especially liked the friendly, courtly, almost Elizabethan tone of the “Meet King Rat” flyer, which referred to the rats as a “retinue” and addressed residents as “good neighbors.”
