Extreme Makeover: Brownstoner Edition
You might notice a few changes that happened around here over the weekend. The most obvious is our new header which was created by Monika Wuhrer, a wonderful Park Slope-based designer who has built the site with us over the past year and change. Also, a big shout out to one of our favorite photo…
You might notice a few changes that happened around here over the weekend. The most obvious is our new header which was created by Monika Wuhrer, a wonderful Park Slope-based designer who has built the site with us over the past year and change. Also, a big shout out to one of our favorite photo bloggers, Youngna Park, whose Dumbo Series we lifted the header image from. You also might notice a fourth column has been added, atop which sits another new feature–the first of a series of two-minute neighborhood videos. In true blogger fashion, this is an off-the-cuff effort with admittedly low production value. We hope they’ll be a fun way for people to get a feel for the various neighborhoods we film over time. We’ve got a few other tricks up our sleeves in the coming weeks that should add a lot of functionality and utility to the site as well. As always, we welcome your suggestions and feedback.

that video featurte is a great idea, but the movie of clinton hill blows. how about a walking tour, rather than driving?
Get us in and we’re there!
Really nice looking ‘Stoner! Dig the video. I’ll second adding house tours to the video selection. You know where I think you should start…
Yeah! What Hal said! Thanks.
Hey Brownstoner, nice blog reno! As you tweak the ‘My Brownstone’ section, please consider including Crown Heights as a selectable neighborhood so I don’t have to be in ‘Other Brooklyn’. Crown Heights is a respectable place, you know!

Here is a link to a cool video of PLG in Brooklyn

looks great!
Looks great! Would talk more, but arms too tired from shoveling 18″ of snow! It’s very beautiful and peaceful today. Enjoy!
Great idea to add the video. How about some house tours?
