BP MARKOWITZ CONGRATULATES THE NEW MISS AMERICA - PARK SLOPE’S MALLORY HAGAN
"Brooklyn is excited and thrilled that our very own Mallory Hagan—a Park Slope resident by way of Alabama—has been named Miss America 2013. I always say that Brooklyn is proud home to everyone from anywhere, and now that includes a Miss America! I had the honor of meeting Mallory at Brooklyn Borough Hall and have no doubt that she will represent Brooklyn, New York State and all of America with distinction during her reign. On behalf of nearly 2.6 million fellow Brooklynites, I say bravo to Mallory—and we can’t wait to welcome her home and ‘crown’ her Kings County style!"
