The greater "tech scene" (if you can call it that) in Brooklyn is in and around Dumbo and Downtown.
- dustym 16y agoYou're right. Mentally I (incorrectly) lump them in with South Brooklyn. Or, more to the point, "yipster" Brooklyn. Honest question: How many people actually live near their work in DUMBO or Downtown?
- starkfist 16y agoNo idea. Personally, I hate DUMBO and find it very inconvenient (from elsewhere in Brooklyn), but I know maybe a dozen hacker types who live over there.
- ryoung 16y ago*raises hand for etsy. There's definitely an interesting art scene in and around the dumbo area, and I get the impression that it's on its way to becoming a viable place for tech as well.
