    PRWeb – Tue, Dec 20, 2011

    Hyper-local blog network expands beyond flagship HeresParkSlope.com

    New York, New York (PRWEB) December 20, 2011

    Here’s Your Neighborhood, Inc. announced today the launch of two new sites for Williamsburg and Greenpoint, http://www.HeresWilliamsburg.com and http://www.HeresGreenpoint.com. Founded in 2009 with its flagship Park Slope blog http://www.HeresParkSlope.com, Here’s Your Neighborhood, Inc. and its network of neighborhood blogs marries shoe-leather journalism and breaking news on local merchants with exclusive online coupons for those same restaurants and stores.

    “Here’s Your Neighborhood is all about community, and communities are never going away. We live in a global digital world, but that’s only served to strengthen the desire on the part of consumers to stay connected with the merchants they interact with every day. We’re satisfying that desire with unique hyper-local reporting and coupons that benefit consumers, merchants, and communities,” says Dan Myers, Founder and CEO of Here’s Your Neighborhood, Inc. “We’re thrilled to be adding sites for Greenpoint and Williamsburg and we look forward to expanding our footprint in the greater New York Metropolitan area very soon.”

    Through its local correspondents, Here’s Your Neighborhood, Inc. has broken news on the opening of numerous hot new establishments including:


    •     Culture: An American Yogurt Company – A fast-growing froyo phenomena featured in New York Magazine’s “Approval Matrix”

    •     Kiwiana – A New-Zealand-inspired eatery founded by Mark Simmons of Top Chef, Season 4

    •     Beauty Bar – A popular chain of salon-themed bars coming soon to Fifth Avenue in Brooklyn

    •     Sweetwolf’s – A highly-anticipated restaurant famous for building its menu, in part, via suggestions from Facebook fans

    Here’s Your Neighborhood, Inc. builds up communities through its mission to support local businesses, giving them a platform to reach – and engage with – their local consumers. Here’s Williamsburg and Here’s Greenpoint will follow the model of Here’s Park Slope, with local breaking news supplemented by daily features such as Business of the Week, New to the Neighborhood and Foodporn. Funding is being sought to expand to Manhattan, with sites planned for neighborhoods including Chelsea, Murray Hill, and The West Village.
