StreetLevel: 4th Avenue In Clover
Here’s some wildly thrilling news for coffee dorks: The $11,000 machine that Slate posits could “broaden the way we think about coffee” is coming to 4th Avenue. 3B, the soon-to-open cafe on Carroll and 4th (nee “Brooklyn Bean”), will have a Clover coffee maker.

Here’s some wildly thrilling news for coffee dorks: The $11,000 machine that Slate posits could “broaden the way we think about coffee” is coming to 4th Avenue. 3B, the soon-to-open cafe on Carroll and 4th (nee “Brooklyn Bean”), will have a Clover coffee maker. The luxe machine makes cups one at a time and is a rare lil’ caffeinated bird. A story in the Times a couple months ago said there are only about 200 of them in shops across the world, though their cult status is quickly becoming more mainstream (there are a few already in NYC). 3B’s espresso machine is no slouch, either, and its owners say they spent months selecting the beans they’re going to use. The business, which’ll also serve some light food, should be up and running in about a week and a half.

I don’t get it. You can get a Mr. Coffee machine for like twenty-five bucks…
funny how people keep thinking that if someone actually says that 4th avenue is growing or becoming “edgy” that it has to be a broker. yet condos, bars and restaurants continue to open along 4th. must be a lot of brokers out there.
There are two HUGE clubs opening in Gowanus soon. One on 4th and one on 3rd.
If 5th Avenue is solidly Park Slope (and by most people’s assertions, prime slope) how is it that one block away is considered not even fringe, 2:59?
btw, 2:39 is an example of how someone who has no self esteem can hate just about anything and everything.
Gowanus is edgy. I hear there are several restaurants and clubs opening in the area.
The Broker
Someday this lies gonna end.
4th Ave. and the surrounding area should be rebranded SlopedAnus. Just a thought.
At best, 4th Avenue is “Park Flats”. Not prime Slope. Not even fringe Slope. 4th Avenue is Gowanus.
I think it is more that in past decade – well maybe 3 years – that some people have started to use ‘Gowanus’ rather than Pk Slope getting larger.
I, for one, have always referred to anything on 4th Avenue as Park Slope ( or maybe sarcasticly as Park Depths). This Gowanus thing is a rebranding thing.
hahahahahhaahha, a NOVO joke.
Good one!!
