Coming on the heels of the man who took to his blog to announce that he is so over Park Slope, photographer Andy Vernon-Jones of Red Hook told the Observer why he will no longer be of Red Hook. "Another love affair is taking priority in my life, and it's with someone who doesn't want to walk close to a mile to and from the subway station." He'll continue posting one new photo a day until October 31st, after which he will be a resident of a different Brooklyn neighborhood closer to the subway. (Though it's not like that'll do anything.)
