Brownstoner Within Reach

Oh, you lucky folk in New York. Tomorrow night (Thursday), from 7pm-9pm, the proprietor of Brownstoner, a terrific site about all things Brooklyn and Brownstone housing (which is a lot more generally interesting than you’d think — everything from architecture, real estate, history to misc. stuff), will be giving a talk at the Design Within Reach store in Brooklyn Heights. If you’re a designer, sheerly by association you have to be interested in renovation. Because, really, it has all of those tiny, unexpected elements you find have to struggle with from start to finish, which is just like every kind of creativity imaginable.
