Hack Manhattan is an amazing maker-space. After looking at the maker-space offerings in the New…read moreYork City area, this is the one I choose to become a member of. It's humble with helpful people and fun times. It's centrally located very near multiple subway stations and bus stops. Membership is cost-efficient (monthly rates of $50/students or poor, $100/adults with jobs). Members of Hack Manhattan come from all walks of life with various interests from quilting and beer-making to woodworking and electrical circuit design. There's even some phone phreaks that set up an Asterisk PBX with four adventure games and a monthly lock-picking class! Of course, there are going to be a few people in the world who can't stand diversity and the inclusiveness that exist at Hack Manhattan, to which is said: GO AWAY. Intolerance is not allowed at HM. There are clearly posted guidelines for behaviour and if one can not accept them, they need to go elsewhere.

This Makerspace is filled from floor to ceiling and wall to wall with STE(A)M-related equipment and…read morecomponents. The organizers are very welcoming, willing to help you partake in even quite niche STE(A)M hobbies. Some of the pieces of equipment available are a couple 3d printers, multiple types of woodworking machines, and a CNC router. I know I am missing some, there's too many to list. The nice thing is that they have open houses every Tuesday and Thursday at 7 PM. However, they do suggest that regulars consider joining as a paid member. Disclaimer: I am NOT a paid member, as of writing this review.

This is also a rather sizable location which is about the size of a Trader Joe's! Thrifting is a big cultural trend in Brooklyn, and Beacon's Closet here is a formidable choice to do so amongst other stores.i was able to find two winter coats here and was happy with my selection. Thrifting definitely takes time and you have to have the energy to do so in order to dig through racks. However, the prices of thrifting and consignment stores have unfortunately gone up, so I give Beacon's Closet a solid 3.5 stars.

This is a massive outlet store spanning over three floors. Most of the store is filled with apparel…read moreitems for men and women. In the lower floor, are the men's products and clearance sections. Main floor has home goods, sunglasses, watches, purses in limited quantity, also lots of women's apparels. Second floor has dresses and shoes. The store was mostly tidy. Walking thru the cramped aisles was little tough. There were only two fitting rooms from what I heard the staff saying . The Clearance sections had sale items up to 80%. I liked a $49 Scotch & Soda t-shirt tagged for only $7. The deal made my day. Checkout process was quick. I got to use my Bloomingdale's cash rewards for the purchase. Overall it was a nice store and seemed to be popular among the city locals.

Many racks and sections for men's women's clothings, bags, accessories etc. 3-4 fitting rooms for women. They definitely need more fitting rooms. The staff were very nice. I couldn't find my size so the staff took it off the mannequin for me. She did mention it was a popular sell and whatever they have left were all on display. Also the fitting room staff was patient and friendly. She gave advice to other customers as well. Great price value in this store. All the items have some sort of discount. But when it's on the sale rack, usually it's the largest size available.
