Who is coolstuff.nyc?
At its core, coolstuff.nyc is two people: Anna & Garrett Albury - a couple of designers living in Brooklyn trying their best to be writers.
We launched our first newsletter in February 2020 after having the idea while stuck on an M train somewhere between Williamsburg and Bushwick. While coolstuff.nyc has evolved since the first email went out to 42 people, we’ve held on to what inspires us - showcasing independent creators, designers & businesses, sharing diverse perspectives of a diverse city, and keeping things as positive as positively possible.
What are the different subscription tiers?
We’ve got something for everyone.
