by Emma Davey Two new vintage stores recently opened in Greenpoint, shoring up the neighborhood’s already thriving scene.
Original Story opened at 86 Dobbin Street, a permanent home to what started as a series of pop-ups around the city. It joins a solid corner for all things design, with Dobbin Street Co-op and Seven Wonders Collective already stationed there (and previously Feng Sway).

Why your support matters
Vintage? I miss the vintage community of GreenPoint, which has been replaced by gentrified GreedPoint. Does anyone remember when Greenpoint touted its very own flag? Nowadays all we’d need as a flag is a dollar sign fluttering in the wind…
Not exactly my store but I do admire these two stores. If seems like every time a store closes and the end looks near for the Greenpoint commercial scene, another one opens despite enormous costs all around.
Good luck to them.
