Given the speed of development and change in some Brooklyn neighborhoods — especially Dumbo and Williamsburg — a “nostalgic” photo doesn’t have to be all that old. When the demolition crews show up, nostalgia can happen in 24 hours. Given all that, Gowanus Lounge will be reaching into the photo archive from time to time to pull out some “old” photos, “old” being defined as anything before the demolition or renovation or gentrification. This photo was shot in Dumbo on Water Street in November, 2001. The space in question is now Almondine, the bakery and sandwich spot.
