Sunset Park site gets makeover and sister In Bay Ridge


Our Sunset Park site  online since 1998 has gotten another do over and upgrade. The old chat room has been replaced by a more functional and updated one. In addition we have added a working chat room as well for our users and visitors. Our traffic has also started to rise again as a result. A similar sister website for our neighbors to the south in Bay Ridge has also been launched and BayRidgeMall.com will follow the same successful model that our current Sunset Park site enjoys.

New Sunset Park Hotel on 39th street doing quite well.


A new hotel that has been opened a little more than a month on 39th street appears to be doing quite well. It is the latest addition to the flurry of hotel building that has made Sunset Park the center of the hotel industry in Brooklyn.



Considering the miserable economy it is a miracle that they kept it as a hotel at all. The flip side is that because everyone is trying to save money Sunset Park hotels are benefiting from those who would rather have that extra 30 minutes from midtown that a Sunset Park hotel can afford them. The hotel is ideally situated from the  36th street subway station where you can catch the D,N,R trains. The D train is a mere 25 minutes from midtown on a good day during rush hour. Time will tell if Sunset park continues to survive the economic depression that we are in. We seem to be doing a bit better than our neighbors and I suspect that may have more to do with the local culture than the fact the hotels appear to be booked well in advance and are bringing outside money into the hood.
