Transplanted Brooklynites thrive all over the Sunshine State

Brooklyn Daily Eagle

The Brooklyn Eagle’s affiliated blog, BrooklynitesinParadise.com, covers the ongoing connections between Kings County and the Sunshine State.

Palmer also posted about Al Capone’s Palm Beach retreat, where he died after prison a long way from his South Brooklyn Roots.
