[Update 08Aug07] COMING SOON…Ok, this section has been up for a year now, and I haven’t updated it yet. There are many small businesses and larger retail businesses in the area. Dumbo is also known for its art galleries and high tech entrepreneurs. It’s been a challenge for an individual like myself (with limited time) to keep up with them. So I’d like to highlight local businesses with individual postings. If you own a business in the Dumbo area, email me at dumbonyc[at]gmail[dot]com with your business name, contact information, website (if available), and description. I may post your information with a short interview. Thanks!

The Gallery represents emerging and known artists and provides the art community a superlative mixture of collectible art.

    Recycle-a-Bicycle is an innovative, fun youth training and environmental education initiative that has taken root in New York City public schools and respected after-school youth programs.

    Recycle-A-Bicycle promotes everyday bicycle use, and it is a great place to learn bicycle mechanics, interact with positive, forward-thinking NYC youth. Our retail shops are the place to find that city bike you need.

    iMentor proves that even the busiest, most successful New Yorkers have time to be quality mentors. iMentor uses mentoring to bridge the divide between New York City’s eclectic communities, creating unique and dynamic relationships that would not have been possible without the program.

    The iMentor program is truly changing the face of youth mentoring. This year, iMentor connected 700 high school-aged youth (mentees) one-to-one with volunteer adult mentors. Every mentor-mentee pair cultivates their relationship using iMentor’s pioneering combination of weekly email correspondence and regular in-person meetings.

    We would love some Mentors from DUMBO!

    Hello, I have started a Pet Dog Blog called “D.U.M.B.O. BARKS”, where it depicts a day in a dogs life in the shadows of the Brooklyn Bridges. I would like to display my biz cards on the right portion of this Blog. It is very tastefully done. Please forward my request to those that handle advertising. My goal is to have most if not all the dog owners send me their dog photos and placed in a photography book of the same name. My website and email address has been entered in the spaces provided above, thanx for your time, David.
