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.

they don’t call it park dope for nothin
7:49 does your post make sense in your bizzaro world
Did anyone see that demographic data above?
Frankly I was surprised there were so many singles in Park Slope.
We outnumber the milfs and dilfs!!!
So over all this kiddie crap on 7th Avenue. I hope they turn all these closings into loud ass bars so all the mommies will move to Carroll Gardens where they belong.
OMG…you are a MAN??!!!!!
OH HELLZ TO THE NO!!!
YOU MUST BE 95!!!!!
THIS ISN’T 1920 ANYMORE, BUDDY!!!!!
GROW SOME BALLS.
So anyone got the scoop on the Barnes + Noble scandal?
Ditto, 7:42.
No desire.
I have WAY too much fun and love to travel too much and love my boyfriend and my job and home improvement and shopping and all that for a kid!!!
Thank goodness others want them, but to be honest…the world is overpopulated as it is.
A few less kids certainly can’t hurt.
I hate to break it to you guys but there is no “crazy lady; I (5:36, 5:42, 6:01 etc..) am not a mother, wife or a women – I am a man (father and husband).
However speaking of “carzy” whats with the anger there 7:13? Sounds like our decision not to have children is a wise one for all!
I don’t have kids and NEVER want them. I am quite happy with my life and the last thing I want is an obnoxious brat to consume my life.
In the 1800’s we had the Civil War.
Now it’s the SINGLES VS. THE BREEDERS!!!
Save your crotchfruit!
