Heard gunshots and lots of sirens around 7am Saturday morning, sounded like it was coming from Barclays area. Anyone know what happened?

No clue, Gothamist's map shows nothing so far.

For better or worse, the change on Nostrand is going to make the change on Franklin look minor.

People hang out at motorcycle clubs at 7am? Really? Boy there is a whole world of stuff going on around me and I haven't the slightest clue.

Didn't even know there was a motorcycle club in Gowanus.

There are actually two motorcycle clubs in that area. God's Own Demons is pretty new. Bridgerunners MC has been at the corner of Butler and 3rd Ave (just a half-block away) for many years. I walk my dog down that street every day.

EDIT: there's a police van parked across the street from that club tonight, FYI. There were also detectives, plainclothes, and uniforms at 4th and St. Mark's Place this morning; my wife says they jimmied the lock on a car and pulled out a dazed man and frisked him. Perhaps unrelated, but only several blocks away.

NYT's take:

For better or worse, the change on Nostrand is going to make the change on Franklin look minor.
