BP MARKOWITZ TO VISIT DUMBO AND “SHOP BROOKLYN” WITH JUST A FEW HOLIDAY SHOPPING DAYS TO GO!

11:45 A.M.
TODAY, MONDAY, DECEMBER 15
PEARL STREET TRIANGLE
OUTSIDE HALCYON
57 PEARL STREET
AT WATER STREET
DUMBO

On Monday, December 15, with just a few shopping days left to get that special gift for that special someone, Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz will meet with retailers and shoppers in DUMBO to remind everyone to “Shop Brooklyn!” Music will be provided by Halcyon (57 Pearl Street) and hot chocolate by Jacques Torres Chocolate (66 Water Street). Neighborhoodies (26 Jay Street) will also be on hand for the event.

“Shop Brooklyn” is an awareness campaign highlighting the uniqueness of Brooklyn’s neighborhoods and thriving shopping corridors, re-introducing Brooklyn to Brooklynites, and inviting tourists and visitors to experience this cultural and shopping destination—not just during the holidays, but year-round.

Participating retailers, restaurants, bars, and other service providers are displaying a “Shop Brooklyn” logo in shop windows and are offering special “Brooklyn Bonuses” each weekend through December 21.
