Posted by LuchAAA on Mon Jun 17 19:57:40 2013, in response to How the M-train is Gentrifying Bushwick, posted by GP38/R42 Chris on Mon Jun 17 15:29:38 2013. I was in Bushwick over the weekend.People are calling it Nooklyn. Don't know when that started. There's a health food supermarket called Hana @ Jefferson and Wycoff. I think the burst in ridership coincides with the explosion of multi-unit co-ops and condos around Central Ave. That construction started even before the M was rerouted via 6th Ave. Bushwick was going to gentrify regardless of the M. But the new route is going to make the area even more attractive. They are also calling the industrial area of Ridgewood SOMA(South Of Myrtle Avenue) and they're trying to give it official industrial park status. Ridgewood Times had a story about it. It's the area around Halsey Street on the L. |
