Ditmas Park Corner Turns 2!
It’s a little hard to believe that it’s only been two years since we launched on an overcast and grey March weekend. It has been another wonderful year, made even better by Nora Whelan joining our team as editor of the site last April.
We are proud of the stories we have brought you over the past year (just over 2,000 of them!), from landlord/tenant issues on East 19th Street, reports on crime and development, and neighbor profiles, to music and events and new businesses opening across the neighborhood. You can count on more food reviews on Wednesdays, real estate roundups on Fridays, and event listings on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. And if you ever have ideas for stories, would like to nominate a neighbor for a profile, or noticed that long-closed storefront has the gates up, please let us know by emailing editor@ditmasparkcorner.com.
We look forward to bringing you more news — and have some special projects we are working on that we think you’ll enjoy (stay tuned!). But we could not do it without your support, and the support of businesses and organizations in the neighborhood. We hope you patronize them often, and when you do, please let them know you appreciate their support of your favorite local news source.
