STOOPENDOUS COMMUNITY-WIDE STOOP SALE
On Sunday, September 26th the BHA will turn all Brooklyn Heights into one gigantic stoop sale, and you don’t even need a stoop to join…a few feet of sidewalk in front of your apartment house will do just fine. So clear out your closets. Clean out your drawers. And make a few extra dollars while you’re at it. Whatever you make, you keep.
The date coincides with the Atlantic Antic, so there’ll be lots of foot traffic throughout the neighborhood.. What’s more, we’ll promote any extra-special items you have for sale on our website. Just email a description along with your address to rsvp@austeragency.com.
Listed below are the locations of stoop sale participants. Some members have told us what they’ll be selling and we’ve included that in the listing.We hope you'll add to the fun, by cleaning out your closets!
