The Eagle sign is no Kentile sign, but we are fond of it as a local landmark. As the Kentile and Eagle factories are defunct, there will come a day when these vestiges of old Brooklyn fall apart. Gowanus will have a little less personality.

The business is gone, but the sign remains. Third Avenue is a flat strip of road favored by drivers in a hurry. More bars and restaurants are moving onto the avenue, a.k.a., Gowanus. The feeling is in the area is otherworldly; not unpleasant, just unlike any part of Brooklyn that’s recognizable.
