I'm going to start with the businesses. Because other than the people, nothing else more accurately describes a NYC neighborhood. Soon after we moved here, I discovered that I could live my ENTIRE life never venturing more than a block from my house. Groceries, hardware, knick-knacks, housewares, electronics, pharmacy, notary public...in essence, you could just bury me on my backyard with a headstone "he never left...ever." It wouldn't be an adventurous life, but it would be a life nonetheless.

Are you a Bargain Hunter? Why not try...BARGAIN HUNTERS! SE corner of Flatbush and Clarkson, I dare you to beat their prices...on anything! And I do mean anything...(nice sign by the way guys).
