Gettin' the Blues in Gowanus

The one Brooklyn neighborhood I've been wanting to explore a little more these days is Gowanus. I am intrigued by its pockets of abandoned areas, the gross/fascinating canal running through it, everyone else's gross fascination with the canal running through it, and its cool/hip factor anchored by places like Four & Twenty Blackbirds and The Bell House.

Also, I dig the cool graffiti near the drawbridge on Union Street. Also: a drawbridge! Who doesn't dig a drawbridge?
