Hope you don't mind if I jump in...Chinese restaurant is still there on the corner of Montague and Clinton (Joralemon is parallel to Montague--2 blocks south). I live in the Fort Gtreene Clinton Hill area but have worked in the Brooklyn Heights area and continue to shop on Montague. (I taught at St. Charles Borromeo on Aiken Place right off Joralemon). You should see Court Street--from the Heights straight through Carroll Gardens--very much improved--lots of bookstores, restaurants, and cute little shops. Even Smith Street is now very hip.

I heard Smith was hip now. When I was living in NYC in the mid 90's I was surprised at the pace of change. I used to go to Ludlow's when it was the only bar on the street, now the bars go all the way to Broadway? Near the ramp to The Manhattan Bridge.
I also lived in Fort Green, in my days at Pratt, on Willoughby Ave and Vanderbuilt. Ever been to the Alibi Bar on Myrtle? I alsi lived in Park Slope on 12th and the park. Ever been to Two Boots or Pincthics paint on Atlantic ave?
