RIP Bob Guskind

Robert Guskind, who ran the stellar Gowanus Lounge blog, died this week. Bob was a generous friend to this blog, to NAG, to me, and to anyone who cared about community issues. He provided careful reporting, great humor and valuable insight to topics all over Brooklyn, from Coney Island to the Newtown Creek. He will be greatly missed. Links to some tributes, below.

(Gowanus Lounge is dark right now, but there is movement afoot to at least keep it up as an archive. We'll report any developments.)
