Brooklyn Magazine’s Neighborhood Power Rankings are out, and Dumbo moves up two spots to #6. They write, “The rents are still bonkers high, but interesting retail (surfboards!) and restaurants (Governor!) are still opening.”

Our beloved neighbor in Brooklyn Heights moved down a notch to #12 because of hot dog gate. Says Brooklyn Magazine, “When a hot-dog cart set-up on Mongague Street in June, residents responded on a local blog as though homeless junkies had burned down their homes. A hot-dog cart!”

In the latest issue (Fall 2012), articles include the new sci-fi bookshop in Dumbo, Singularity & Co, Brooklyn’s best local coffee roasters, and Brooklyn’s Tastemakers.
