BK Reader

For this reason, in our "Local Voices" section, we give any local resident who desires a writing platform to share their professional and personal insights on local issues, while the "Young Voices" section of the site encourages writers, age 8-18. Subscribers to BK Reader's newsletter receive fresh new content each morning at 7:00am, delivered righ... t to their inbox. Additionally, BK Reader currently is the only news site in Brooklyn to offer Bloom, a geolocation service for identifying the latest coverage within blocks of a user's zip code, as well as a map featured on the homepage that identifies the location of the most recent BK Reader stories. Look for our neighborhood pages, and take advantage of bookmarking those neighborhoods that are most relevant to you. BK Reader is Central and East Brooklyn's most trusted source for local news and information because it belongs to the community. It is first and foremost your platform to engage, enlighten, inform and stay connected! From city and state government officials, to mom-and-pop store owners; from community board members, to public housing residents; and from brownstone owners to recent college graduates, BK Reader truly is for Brooklyn, by Brooklyn.
