What to Do at Every Stop Along the R Train
Jay Street
I’d say go to Macy’s, but you know what? I’m boycotting Macy’s until it brings the Fourth of July fireworks back to the East River. There’s other shopping you could do; though the Bloomberg administration has succeeded in pushing out many of the small businesses in the area, many still survive and are great places to find bargains. My favorite part of Downtown Brooklyn though is the Steve “ESPO” Powers mural on that Hoyt Street parking garage. Maybe they’re not reason alone to visit, but they’re definitely something to check out!
