Favorite Park Slope Shopping
Housing Works
266 5th Avenue
Some of our favorite Park Slope shopping involves finding great vintage finds for a cause with both House Works Park Slope, one of our favorite thrift shops in NYC.
Housing Works sells quality second-hand items from clothing, accessories, furniture, and other housewares as a non-profit organization who is heavily involved in social justice activism and helps some of the city’s most neglected communities.
Their proceeds go towards helping others including fighting homelessness and AIDS through selling their vintage collection of merchandise.
They have multiple locations and we are lucky to have two here in Park Slope. Both locations are smaller featuring a high quality curated collection of second-hand items for great prices.
We love that you can shop for a cause here! Also, if you’re looking to get rid of furniture or clothing you can dontate them to Housing Works to help their cause!

Unfortunately, these novelty items aren’t real, if only they were though! They do however make a fun gift for that superhero of a person in your life who needs a little extra encouragement.
What makes this an even more special Park Slope shopping spot is that the Brooklyn Superhero Supply Store is actually a front for the 826NYC Foundation, a non-profit organization that provides after school tutoring and workshops for struggling students and youth.
