Dear Neighbor

As 2025 comes to a close, the Park Slope Pulse & Cobble Hill Collective Substack teams want to wish you and your loved ones a joyful holiday season and a Happy New Year!

Since the beginning, our mission has been simple: helping locals stay connected to their neighborhood. In 2025, we featured hundreds of small businesses- sharing stories about events, local spots & people, neighborhood history, and worked to empower our community with positivity and practical information.

We launched the Cobble Hill Collective Substack this Summer and have more than doubled the number of Subscribers for Park Slope Pulse since last year - there are now almost 6.5K subscribers across both Substacks!

Your feedback has been instrumental in shaping our local publications, and we want to make 2026 even better. If you have 1-2 minutes, please take this quick survey to let us know what you’d like to see more of next year:

Thank you for being part of this journey. Here’s to staying informed, connected, and inspired in the year ahead.

Warm wishes

Mychal, Shannon, Viv
