New Celeb Neighbors
Maybe Jakey can come visit them often:
"Following in the footsteps of the young Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams into a Park Slope brownstone near you, actors Maggie Gyllenhaal and fiancé Peter Sarsgaard have just signed a contract for a vintage 3,600-square-foot brownstone in north Park Slope."
Went for $1.75million. I think it's near 5th Ave.
I can't believe it took me 8 years to spot John Turturro (in Back to the Land).
Meanwhile, my friend never sees Jennifer Connelley and Paul Bettany and I see them all the time.
As long as none of them cut me on line for a table at A Di La or something
p.s. HL and MW don't live in the Slope. They live in the Cobble Hill area

I read that they bought on Sterling Pl.

They look like any other hipster Brooklyn couple, huh?
I see JCo pretty frequently, although Paul Bettany is a more frequent sight walking the dog and the baby (and he is sizzling HOT).
John Tuturro is always out on President btw 8th and PPW. -

Every time I see them she looks pissed off and he's walking 3 steps behind her looking happy. -

Damn, I never see them and I've loved me some JCo since she starred in Labyrinth. I was thrilled when I finally spotted Steve Buscemi across from the Ale House. I've seen John Turturro a couple of times - once on Garfield and once coming out of the subway on 7th Ave.. -
I was happy when I saw Buscemi - pushing a grandma cart up 5th ave.
JC and hubby are often in the park playground near the 3rd St. entrance. And at Key Foods on 7th. -
I've seen John Turturro only once, in Back to the Land. I used to see Steve Buscemi so often I was afraid he thought I was stalking him. Maybe there was some kind of magnetic attraction due to our being born on the exact same day.

Oh man. Shopping at that pit with their money? Only thing I can say for that place is that they stock the habanero flavor Tabasco.

I had the same stalker type thing going on with John Ventimiglia (Artie Buco from the Sopranos). I saw him at an HBO fight, I saw him when I was doing volunteer work after 9/11, I saw him in Ozzie's, I saw him on 7th Ave....on and on....

i see mike gordon, the bass player from Phish, all the time.
i took a picture of jennifer connely's ass once on 9th street. -

Well, if I were walking three steps behind Jennifer Connelly...
Oh come on, somebody had to say it. -

a) I have a head full of useless information
b) I have seen him so many times around town
c) I watch the Sopranos
d) He introduced himself to me
e) He was arrested for DUI and cocaine possession a few months ago in PS and his excuse was that he was just moving his car looking for a parking spot.
What can I say?!

Do Heath, Jennifer, Paul, and Michelle all still live in P.S.? I thought they had moved. -
Heath and Michelle never lived in PS. They live around Cobble Hill, but also have a home in LA.
JC and PB still live here.
I had read about a year ago that Caroline Kennedy bought a place here and was restoring it to move in, but never heard anything else -

I saw them both tonight, and while they are both attractive, I wouldn't have looked twice if I didn't know who they were. They looked pretty normal, really, but I will say Paul dresses very well. -

i'd also heard this, but nothing since. rory kennedy lives on montgomery. i think that woman from law and order lives here too, the one who plays eames, because i've seen her pushing strollers with rory.

if maggie's coming, maybe her adorable brother will be coming. a girl can dream. -
Jennifer Connelly and Paul Brettany both work out at the Slope Health & Fitness.
You're right, she is tiny.
"Artie Buoco" lives somewhere on 6th avenue near 2nd street, I think.
On 6th street is where Buscemi lives, and near him Colin Quinn from Saturday Night Live also bought a house.
Turturro live up by Prospect Park, and he is a very nice person.
Senator Charles Schumer and his family live on President Street by the Park.
Also that actress from the movie Top Gun used to own a house on Garfield. But I think she's moved.
F.Y.I. Heath Ledger bought a house in Boerum Hill. -
not to be weird or anything, but, I'm an actor, and I live on Pacific st. btwn 4th and flatbush. My name is Don Jeffcoat and I have been doing some pretty cool work since I was like 10, so... if you are going to list slope celebs, I just wanted to put my name out there, thats all.
Peace,

I bet that went down well with the cops.
His character on the Sopranos was nuts. I thought he was about to have a psychotic break and kill somebody - possibly Tony. -

But how many degrees are you from Kevin Bacon?

Parking IS really difficult round these parts. Enough to drive one to drink...

Why did you do such a thing? Looking at that weird troll and your rotating red squid while drunk at 2 AM this morning was so much fun!

Robert de Niro just moved to Bed Stuy.

Wow, MeanDººD -- you may very well be the only Brooklynian regular who has his own fan club! At least until Maggie and Peter start posting here, anyway.
