Such is the notoriety of these вЂњold schoolвЂќ graffiti artists that the NYPD Vandal Squad appeared outside the opening of their first exhibition together last summer, according to Urban Folk Art Gallery co-owner/co-curator Adam Suerte. The Urban Folk Art Gallery buzzed with a frenetic energy as intense as the vibrant artwork adorning the walls during the opening party for вЂњThe Usual Suspects 2вЂќ graffiti exhibition on Friday night.ДЇriendly shouts of greeting filled the air as visitors eagerly lined up to draw their own graffiti art alongside some of the local legends featured in this group show. NU Hotel Brooklyn is located at 85 Smith Street, on the corner of Atlantic Avenue. More details can be found on NU HotelвЂ™s Facebook page. A tequila-based signature cocktail is the focus of the competition, with a $100 bar tab to be awarded as the prize for the winning drink moniker. The drink menu will vary by season, with original cocktail recipes concocted by Master Mixologist Milos Zica, principal bartender at Manhattan restaurant Employees Only.ДЄ drink naming contest is currently being held to coincide with the opening of the cafГ©. In addition to light fare, the sidewalk cafГ© also features an extensive selection of cocktails, thanks to the concurrent reopening of the hotelвЂ™s revamped bar space. вЂњWeвЂ™re extremely thrilled to have one of the largest sidewalk cafГ©s in Downtown Brooklyn opened for business and look forward to becoming a neighborhood destination spot,вЂќ NU Hotel General Manager Javier Egipciaco told us.

A full lunch and dinner menu will be available later this month. Offerings include braised pineapple, lamb and pork belly buns and mustard seed shrimp with cucumber and yogurt sauce. Though it has yet to be officially named, the new establishment is already serving up a menu of tapas devised by Chef Jehangir Mehta, owner of Manhattan eateries Graffiti and Mehtaphor. to 1 a.m., with food served until 11 p.m. Current hours of operation are from 4 p.m. Just as another season of alfresco dining and drinking in the neighborhood is getting underway, a new sidewalk cafГ© opened for business yesterday at the NU Hotel Brooklyn.Д®ncompassing 416 square feet, the outdoor space has seating capacity for 30 patrons. Hopefully, we can keep it clean with tenacious calls to 311. In any case, thereвЂ™s no good reason for the Heights to resemble the New York City of the 1970s again.

Are you seeing more graffiti in your area, as well?

Recent walks around the nabe are revealing more and more random sightings of defaced mailboxes, walls, light posts and commercial buildings. BHB has reported on previous incidents, including AprilвЂ™s вЂњNYPD DonвЂ™t TrustвЂќ spray painted on a Remsen Street sidewalk and along a Henry Street wall. Meanwhile, in Brooklyn Heights, it appears graffiti vandalism is on the rise. The same spot 199 feet above the East River was marred to great infamy in 1988 by brothers вЂњSane & Smith,вЂќ who scribbled 5-foot letters on the Manhattan tower of the iconic Bridge. When well-traveled NYC graffiti вЂњartistвЂќ Lewy BTM tagged the Brooklyn Bridge with his trademark squiggle design late last month, it was noted that the last time the national landmark was so adorned was during the Clinton era, in 1998.
