Mayor Bloomberg comes to Cakeman Raven for red velvet cake. Spike Lee attends the Fort Greene Association meeting. Massive tulip plantings take place in Fort Green Park. The NYC Marathon runs through Clinton Hill and Fort Greene. Bicycles are on sale for $2400 at Brooklyn Flea. Local resident lies to employer in order to go to Yankee parade and then admits it in the newspaper. A nude man runs about outside a polling place. French missionaries walk through the neighborhood reciting the rosary. Man finds a wad of money in Clinton Hill and tries desperately to return it to its rightful owner; and a Fort Green resident makes it to the semifinals of the 2009 Miss G Train pageant.…….it’s been an interesting November in Clinton Hill/Fort Greene. And that’s the point.
Clinton Hill and Fort Greene are exciting places. The tremendous changes in the area, coupled with its great cultural, architectural and social history are going to make for a great second edition of Plenty: The Ultimate Guide to Life and Leisure in Clinton Hill/Fort Greene.
