From Bay Ridge to Bushwick, today neighborhoods on the cusp of
gentrification display obvious signs of transformation and tension,
but what about areas that were the first to make up the
"new" Brooklyn, like Park Slope, Carroll Gardens, and Prospect
Heights? What is their narrative and what challenges do they
face today? Join Jarrett Murphy, Executive Publisher of City Limits,
as he moderates a discussion with thought leaders including
historian Suleiman Osman, author of The Invention of Brownstone
Brooklyn: Gentrification and the Search for Authenticity in Postwar
New York, and New York Times columnist Ginia Bellafante.
