Nostylgia in Inwood
On summer evenings, a tree-lined strip of Dyckman Street — a main thoroughfare in Inwood, near Manhattan’s northern prow — becomes a giant block party. Crowds from several splashy bars spill out onto the sidewalk, clutching beers and cigarettes as they chatter loudly and peck away on their smartphones.
Yet there, in the middle of all the ruckus, is a quiet spot to sip tea, play chess and savor the pleasures of a gentler era. The name says it all: Nostylgia. (read more at NYT)
Custom Brooklyn Furniture
Richard, who left his career in advertising to make furniture using reclaimed materials, recently opened his massive workshop and shop Olga Guanabara, named after his beloved Chocolate Lab. The furniture includes one-of-a-kind dining and coffee tables and light fixtures - one table, fashioned from a log fished from the East River, mimics the Manhattan Bridge; another is built from wide planks joined by lengths of steel. His shop also features jewelry from Kevin Morrison, knit throws from Lulu Yang, pillows sewn from vintage Northern Brazilian textiles and cheeky art in Edwardian frames by Mauro Baiocco.

The Brooklyn Superhero Supply Store
Brooklyn’s Superhero Supply company is often mistaken for a hardware store, but actually houses shelves of fun things like cans of Courage, Gumption, invisibility paint, and tools to help you scale walls. A mock seriousness to the store, paired with the Willy Wonka-like fantasy world, creates a delightful place to explore and play.
