9 last-minute gift ideas for the Brooklyn obsessive in your life

A curated list of Brooklyn-themed gift ideas since — can you believe it? — the holidays are a week away

Don’t look now, but both Christmas and Hanukkah are next weekend. Once you recover from your panic attack, come along with us: We’ve compiled a short list of the best Brooklyn-themed gifts that you can grab this week, so the only thing you need to worry about is the tripledemic. Or inflation. Or the ugly sweater office party you have to go to.

Kidding, kinda, but at least the stress of gift buying is about to disappear – and you don’t need to get anything for us because your clicks are enough.

Plus, a shameless plug: If none of these tempt you, check out Brooklyn Magazine’s holiday market this weekend or this local artisan holiday gift guide curated for us by the good people at Building Black Bed-Stuy. (Oh, and PS: Brooklyn Magazine also has a merch store — with some fun drops coming in 2023!)

For the clotheshorse

Di Fara Pizza is selling a T-shirt featuring its Midwood storefront, since that’s easier than shipping a pizza.
