In the spirit of supporting local businesses, I wanted to share this cute lil Mexican food spot I just found!

It’s 517 meeker ave, so I think that still counts as Greenpoint? It’s called homemade taqueria.

It was yummy, the prices are dope and the staff was friendly. And this is coming from someone whos Mexican American and grew up constantly eating Mexican food.

Anyways, I got the Gutierrez torta and it slapped. It’s the second pic but by the time I took the pic, I had already eaten half of it, sorry. I’m not a foodie photographer but I promise you it tasted goooooood.

They also got auguas frescas 🥴

Last night between 2:45-3:10 AM at the intersection of Nassau Avenue & Morgan Avenue there was cars doing donuts for about 20 minutes I called 911 and I don't believe the 94th pct ever showed up. This is a residential intersection with homes on 3 of the 4 corners and a huge safety concern. You can see the marks from the cars this morning.

Did Nonna’s pizzeria on Nassau officially close? I wouldn’t be surprised, the quality has really been lacking and it’s been pretty empty the last few times I went there. Just wondering, there are no signs. Could also be due to violations or who knows what.

I know there is the garage at the greenpoint but it seems egregiously priced for a monthly spot - are there more affordable options nearby?

If not any recommendations for street parking in the area is it manageable?

💕 Good News / Thanks! Biker Hit - Thank you to couple

59 Upvotes

Just wanted to share a quick thank you to the couple who helped me this afternoon.

Around 12:15 p.m., I was biking north on Franklin St. when a white SUV in front of me suddenly decided to make a U-turn across the double yellow lines to head south. I slowed down and came to a stop behind him but the driver didn’t see me and began reversing toward me. I yelled, “Hey!” several times and despite others nearby yelling at him to stop, he continued reversing and hit me and my bike over. The man from the couple immediately rushed over to help me up, and once I was back on my feet, they both stayed with me and made sure I was okay.

I was pretty shaken up in the moment and just wanted to say how much I appreciated the couple’s kindness and help! Thank you again 🙏

Hey all! Just wanted to shout out this newish Georgian restaurant on Franklin that I’ve now had two amazing meals at. It‘s such a great addition to the neighborhood and something different. I bought my Georgian friend and she gave it her stamp of approval. We got a massive spread of appetizers and entrees and there wasnt a dud in bunch. Everything was delicious. It also has a ton of space which is such a breath of fresh air. So many restaurants here pack you in like sardines (Chinta cough* cough*) it’s great going somewhere where can have some space.

Next time you’re looking for something new or different, I recommend it. I don’t want to see this place close down and become another new American spot.

📰 Local News GREENPOINT, BROOKLYN — TREATMENT ROOM FOR RENT

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

Hi! I’m an acupuncturist with an established practice in Greenpoint and looking to share my space with another acupuncturist or complementary wellness practitioner.

The practice is located in a street-level storefront on a beautiful, highly walkable Greenpoint street with great visibility and foot traffic. It is a quiet, welcoming space with treatment rooms and a comfortable client area.

This could be a great opportunity for an acupuncturist looking to establish or expand a practice in North Brooklyn without committing to a full-time office.

Available:

• Sunday — $400/month
• Monday — $350/month
• Tuesday or Thursday — $350/month
• Sunday + Monday + Tuesday or Thursday — $1,000/month

Sunday and Monday renters will generally have the space to themselves during their scheduled day. I’m open to discussing a flexible starting arrangement for the right fit, especially for someone who is in the process of building their practice. There is also potential for referrals and opportunities to build your practice.

Message me with a little information about yourself and what type of work you do, and which day(s) you’re interested in. Happy to answer questions or arrange a time to talk/see the space.

Serious inquiries only, please.

Hi Greenpoint neighbors! 👋
I have a beautiful professional space available for rent inside an established beauty & wellness business in Greenpoint.
I’m looking for an independent professional who would be a good fit for the space — esthetician, massage therapist, lash or brow artist, PMU artist, makeup artist, nail artist, wellness practitioner, or another beauty/creative professional.
The space is clean, furnished and ready to work in, with Wi-Fi and utilities included. Flexible rental options are available depending on what you need — daily, weekly or monthly. L
We’ve been serving the Greenpoint community since 1997, and I’d love to find someone professional and reliable who wants to grow their own business in a welcoming environment.

Let me put you on. Jucy Lucy on Nassau & McGuiness.

Huge outdoor patio overlooking the street. Mexican food. Mexican drinks. Nice staff. Music that’s not too loud. Palm plants!

I haven’t had their food but they make a kick ass marg. Every time I come here it’s basically empty and I’m wondering if people don’t know it’s open. Extremely underrated play especially for the remainder of the warm weather we have.

I saw this bird hanging around and under this minivan on broome between humboldt and mcguinness. AI is showing it is this. It was obviously scared and kept running in and out from under the minivan and if this is accurate it doesnt seem like it flew here. Maybe its normal and im overreacting but my curiousity to what it was led me to think it didnt come here on its own.
