Greenberg, he then asked The Master Wood Carpenter Eric Bernstein who
is a prospect heights native to join him in this venture a foodie and
footie fanatic alike.
The Culture:
Soccer has always been a
big part of New York City. The beautiful game is played amongst every
culture and in every neighborhood. The Big Apple is also the home of
onetime soccer ambassadors the New York Cosmos. Even Brooklyn-raised
sports caster Howard Cossell was quoted in 1977 as saying, "Soccer will
be the biggest big league of all." With the advent of satellite
television and the slow "flattening" of the globe's culture it's no
surprise that New York Native Ross Greenberg is bringing his vision of
soccer culture, food and wine to the borough that is home to the love
of the beautiful game.
The Neighborhood:
Prospect Heights,
a small neighborhood between Park Slope, Boerum Hill, Fort Greene and
Crown Heights in close proximity to Prospect Park. A hotbed of soccer
amongst young and old alike. Team matches and pick-up games take place
at the nearby Parade Grounds, Brooklyn Tech and Fort Greene Park.
Vanderbilt Avenue with several quaint eateries and bars and
twenty-something population is the perfect setting for this
groundbreaking venue.
