looking for: detailed MAP of Prospect Heights

hi - new person here. i just moved to brooklyn at the end of july. trying to become more familiar with my area, while being an insane overbooked student in manhattan.. it's been interesting

anyway, i've been looking for restaurants + laundries, and while there are lots of useful suggestions on this forum, i have no idea where some of these streets are, relative to my apt.

so is there some kind of a good, detailed map of prospect heights available online? doesn't have to be fancy. as long as i can zoom in & out, and see individual streets, that's perfect. thank you!

Try picking an address in the middle of the neighorhood and using Googlemaps. They're very clear and detailed.

Here's a sample link: laundry near 11238.

You can find a list of local business addresses at the North Flatbush online.

If you want a paper version, there's a nice $3 "North Flatbush Neighborhood" map that covers north Park Slope and Prospect Heights. It's annotated with lots of local businesses. I bought it at the New York Naturals at the corner of 6th and Flatbush. Published by the North Flatbush Business Improvement District; http://www.nfbid.com/.

I think I got that map for free. Maybe at Delicacies? I don't remember where.

moments after i bought one of those maps at a neighborhood shop i walked over to Soda for a beer and lo and behold, they were giving them out for free - check along the window sill. if i were new to the neighborhood though i'd pony up the $3.

I suggest you use this link. Select 'Prospect Heights' under NYC Neighborhood - and you can see the boundaries.
