BROOKLYN Pride Rainbow Watercolor Map: PRINTBROOKLYN. New York. Gritty and beautiful, historic and fashion forward, real and imaginary, Brooklyn is a place where dreams are pushed daily, friendships are fierce and culture abounds. And so do cheesy metaphors I'm sorry. The streets of Brooklyn just hold so many memories and stories, I felt like the map drawing was 100 layers deep. Each street and grid is home to generations past and present from the earliest immigrants to the latest hipsters.
