 Atlantic Ave has i believe the most beautiful Window Display I've seen. They are all winners to me. Very Vintage and Antique looking, gives it that Brooklyn feeling which is what we Brooklynites love about Brooklyn. 

During this festive event, a toy or book was collected for the holiday gifts for children living in the neighborhood's Public Housing that was impacted by Hurricane Sandy.

The annual Tree lighting ceremony is a popular Holiday event that brings people from various neighborhood like, Brooklyn Height, Cobble Hill, Downtown Brooklyn and Boreum Hill. 

Children from local school PS 38 and PS 261 was singing holiday songs and spreading Christmas spirit. Which is what we all need in  light of Hurricane Sandy.
