StreetLevel: Baby Biz Out, Barber In on Fifth Ave.
The pace of retail turnover on Fifth Avenue shows no signs of slowing. However, at 143 Fifth off Douglass, the gentrification tide appears to be reversing: A good old-fashioned barber is going to replace the out-of-business perfume/body potion/candle shop.

The pace of retail turnover on Fifth Avenue shows no signs of slowing. However, at 143 Fifth off Douglass, the gentrification tide appears to be reversing: A good old-fashioned barber is going to replace the out-of-business perfume/body potion/candle shop. And right next door, the baby-toy and clothing store Romp is calling it quits after three years.

“Do you people even read Gawker?”
Are Park Slope moms neurotic?
Do you people even read Gawker?
2:43/3:04/3:11 = one of those nasty Park Slope moms everyone on gawker talks about.
Actually, 3:11…I’m not allowed to get married in this state.
If you’d like to recify that, I’m more than happy to let you solve that problem.
Park Slump. Suck it, slopers. (you too Timmy, Clarabel and Duncan)
I’m assuming it’s your sunny personality and strong grasp of the english language that’s keeping you single for the forseeable future….
Pole?
Ass?
I dont get?
Believe me, 2:56/3:04
I’m getting laid a helluva lot more than the two of you, combined.
I feel for your hubby. You two sound frigid.
Never said I hated kids, btw. That’s your own projection. But we certainly are not at a loss for all of the overpriced kid boutiques in Park Slope. If you don’t see that, then the pole sticking up your ass is starting to affect your vision.
Yeah seriously if people don’t have kids where am I going to find my second wife (who actually should be in 3rd grade about now)
