About Us

Hello!

Our names are Megane Nacier and Omayra Cen Xie and we are Macaulay Honor students at Brooklyn College. The spring semester seminar: Peopling in New York, asked to do an ethnographic project focusing on a neighborhood in NYC. This website right here is the fruit of our labor as we explored and researched the vastness of Downtown Brooklyn.

Come and join us in reading what we have learned while doing our project as we explored the neighborhood of Downtown Brooklyn. If you want to know more information about the neighborhood itself and keep up to date about what events are happening; please visit its website at: http://downtownbrooklyn.com/ .

Here you have the lovely Megane as she waves at you from Court St.

And here is Omayra enthusiastically sitting in front of the BAM Peter Jay Sharp building.
