Most people in NYC have no manners. None at all! How rude!!! Poor kiddos.

Yep. Whom I almost hit. Think I almost hit him. You wouldn't say, "I almost hit he."

What do you wonder?

haha !
the other french place used to be a laundromat
or that the strip of restaurants at 1st st used to be a supermarket.
possibly the dirtiest most disgusting supermarket i ever entered.
or that a gang used to hang out in the vacant lot that
became a parking lot and then became a bank.
or the regular gunplay over which group of scumbags got to deal drugs .

and this truly plagues me
why in the world is there still a cucina blvd sign up ???

Belelville was a rather large bodega before becoming Belleville

how i missed the rule where turns from the center lane are allowed in rotaries in brooklyn. because i seem to be the only person who doesn't do it.

i wonder if new2hood was in bartel pritchard when this happened?

......if people know that the circle in Bartel Pritchard Square used to be a turntable for trolleys?

that i knew, i've seen pictures

And now it's a turntable for cars.

Which makes me wonder if those last few families whose loved ones were "processed" by the former funeral home knew that it would very soon become a restaurant !! :shock:

I was indeed! and the circle down by the tennis center. IT's just not that hard to figure out how to drive around a circle the right way. Jeez.

i wonder how a person terrified of traffic circles ended up living with one on her corner
