Ah, the wonders of Flickr. We came across these photographic relics of an earlier Brooklyn: Canarise, 1980-81. Great hairdos, great buildings and the same popular Brooklyn logo. The photographer is gbSk.

    Dear Dreamland Skaters,

    Coney Island is a seasonal land of amusements. Hence Dreamland Roller Rink will be closed for the winter.

    Details of re-opening to be announced. Please join our email list for updates!

    I already did that and might I say that I was pleasantly surprised to see the shelves stocked with fresh, clean items and experience the cheerful and polite service on Friday morning.

    It was all going so well until some out-of-town tart with a Bay Ridge accent threw a hissy fit when she couldn’t find any Aqua Net Hairspray and had to be forcibly removed by two very kind octogenarians who just happened to be wandering around the store looking for the toilet paper section.

  4. biff!!! that place looks perfect! thanks for the suggestion. where in brooklyn is west 21st street tho?! (please dont say williamsburg or bushwick. i refuse to have a sweet 16 parties in one of those neighborhoods!)
