The French Connection!
Park Slope: The French apparently hold the key to fixing Grand Army Plaza. Comment.
Now there’s no park!
Park Slope: Two sets of playing fields in J.J. Byrne Park have been rendered useless as the city began renovating the northern section of the park before a private developer finished his long-overdue, and city-mandated, rehab of the southern park. Comment.
Eat a tour of Seventh Avenue
Dining: Here’s an offer you can’t pass up: Free food. On Sept. 18, dozens of eateries along Park Slope’s Seventh Avenue — the dowdy older brother to hot hip restaurant rows on Fifth Avenue and Smith Street — will be doling out hors d’oeuvres and other toothsome samples in the latest phase of the Park Slope Chamber of Commerce’s “Buy in Brooklyn” campaign. Comment.

Here they are: Your police blotters!
Park Slope: If it’s Wednesday, it must be Police Blotter Day at BrooklynPaper.com. Find your neighborhood below or click above to start in Park Slope’s 78th Precinct, where a robber makes a score with just a few words of Spanish and a lot of hand gestures. Comment.
Suck on this: One reason why your car is getting pilfered
Park Slope: Cops are tracking a new breed of criminal — the sucker seer. Comments (1).
