Gearing Up for the Fort Greene House Tour
The 2008 Fort Greene House Tour is coming to you live on May 4 from 12-5 p.m. While the tour will feature its usual assortment of old-school brownstone-y goodness, the must-see stop this year will undoubtably be the David Adjaye-designed art studio which we called “pretty cool” when it was completed back in late 2005….

Advance tickets are available for $20 at BAM, Yu Interiors, Gnarly Vines, The Saturday Green Market and, you guessed, the Brooklyn Flea. The tour kicks off in the garden across from BAM. For more info, you can also call 718-875-1855. Happy touring.
I appreciate my neighbors doing this…but I would never open my house to the public this way…
I cannot bring myself to go on the house tour. It’s like one mass open house/real estate event…and even though I am the curious type, this kind of hourse-touring gives me the creeps. I would much rather go to buildings that serve as house-museums than to peer into the lives of my neighbors…
Oh, well…to each his own…
The the best of luck to the people who like doing this (both those showing their homes and those looking at other people’s homes). Yikes!

I do hope it won’t be way overrun, with terribly long lines, this year due to the proximity to the flea which draws big crowds. That would be the end of it, like the crowds ruining the village Halloween parade, which used to be a nice, local event.
Man, do you have to have it during the Kentucky Derby?
