BROOKLYN sites and landmarks |
Brooklyn is located south of Manhattan (and east of Staten Island), accessible by bridge, subway, ferry, and the very specific IKEA ferry that has only one stop: Brooklyn's IKEA. New York City's public transit system weaves all through Brooklyn. While those that feed on humanity, the vampires and the fae, still prefer the busier Brooklyn, New York City's wakers and the other races are equally active in Brooklyn as they are in Manhattan, many of them preferring a bit of distance from constant hustle and bustle that is Manhattan. NorthStar - A lounge, restaurant, bar, café, pub, whatever you want to call it. It's a place for all races to mix, mingle, and watch ESPN, SkySports, and whatever other channels are required for someone's fix. Generally considered a sports bar above all else, North Star could open its doors to sleepers, but the place gets violent, in a very magical way, if there's a massive upset. No one loves the Pepperdell Used Bookstore - What it says on the tin, Pepperdell (Jr., as it happens) is a helpful, elderly man that maintains a large used bookstore. Most of his business is in college textbooks for nearby Brooklyn College, but he has a sizable waker clientele as well. Pepperdell has an excellent selection of magical encyclopedias and other such books. His prices are daunting but admittedly fair given the rarity of some of his wares. Red Hook - Besides for being a neighborhood on Brooklyn's western shore, it's noteworthy for being the homebase of a violent and territorial werewolf pack for at least the past fifty years now. The Red Hook Pack generally lets passer-bys pass on by, but they don't take kindly to people interfering with their business--much of which is far from legal.
