ONLY 6 SHOPPING DAYS TO GO! BP MARKOWITZ TO JOIN SANTA FOR “SHOP BROOKLYN” HOLIDAY TROLLEY RIDE

NOON
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 19
GRAHAM AVENUE AND COOK STREET
EAST WILLIAMSBURG

On Saturday, December 19, Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz will “Shop Brooklyn” when he joins Santa for a trolley ride at a holiday event hosted by the Graham Avenue BID. Free trolley rides will be available from noon until 5pm so that shoppers can explore the Graham Avenue shopping area from Broadway to Boerum Street, as well as Flushing Avenue and Moore and Debevoise Streets.

Shop Brooklyn, an initiative of the Borough President’s Office, 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 will display a “Shop Brooklyn” logo in shop windows and offer special “Brooklyn Bonuses” through Christmas.
