PARK SLOPE, BROOKLYN — A pandemic pivot story in Park Slope is spreading its hopeful message across the country with a feature on Good Morning America.
Sisters-in-law Danielle Edwards-Clarke and Mariama Delph-Clarke were featured on the popular TV show this week for transforming Edwards-Clarke's fitness studio into a new event venue, Atrium82 on Sixth Avenue.
