Dumbo NYC

Notes from the DUMBO, Brooklyn NY neighborhood


Dumbo Links Week of 19Jul09

July 25th, 2009


(Manhattan Bridge moving to traffic)

The following are selected links from this past week on blogs and websites with discussion about Dumbo (and its neighboring areas):

  • Thank you very much for linking me!

    DUMBO is the greatest.
  • WaterSt.
    This video looks like it was filmed from roof of 133 Water St @ Adams, no?

    @dumbostreets: The MTA doesn't have enough money to keep trains running, let alone *quieter*
  • thanks for the shoutout!
  • Nice ideal, but unlikely given that no one wants to pay for the MTA capital program.
  • dumbostreets
    The MTA capital program should include passive sound cancellation for elevated tracks throughout the city.

    Communities outside NYC will build miles and miles of sound barriers along highways and railroad tracks. It's insane that elevated trains in the outer boroughs have absolutely nothing like this and often pass within feet of residences.

    LOVE the video!
  • We love Dumbo - lived there for a spell in 1995 and have enjoyed watching it grow and develop into the lovely arts neighborhood it is now.

    We also love Halcyon Records
