The Q at Parkside

(for those for whom the Parkside Q is their hometrain)

News and Nonsense from the Brooklyn neighborhood of Lefferts and environs, or more specifically a neighborhood once known as Melrose Park. Sometimes called Lefferts Gardens. Or Prospect-Lefferts Gardens. Or PLG. Or North Flatbush. Or Caledonia (west of Ocean). Or West Pigtown. Across From Park Slope. Under Crown Heights. Near Drummer's Grove. The Side of the Park With the McDonalds. Jackie Robinson Town. Home of Lefferts Manor. West Wingate. Near Kings County Hospital. Or if you're coming from the airport in taxi, maybe just Flatbush is best.

This Sunday! Come Be Part Of The Parkside Plaza Renaissance!

This Sunday at Play Kids at 5PM the ever-busy committee to retool the plaza at the Q at Parkside will meet to report, discuss and plan the next stages of what will one day look something like the below:

I don't have time to get into it all here, but suffice to say things are moving fast and furious, though some things will take longer (slow and not-so-furious) than expected due to the renovations of the station itself. Please come and be a part of one of the biggest public works projects in the neighborhood since...um, the Parkside Playground? The Missive de la Committee:

Hi, everyone,
This is just a reminder that the committee to bring a plaza to Parkside Avenue is meeting this weekend
  WHEN:  Sunday, April 7, at 5pm
  WHERE:  Play Kids, 676 Flatbush Ave
  WHO:  Everyone!
On the agenda:  Updates on the last month of progress, and news on our plans for a promotional video to launch our KickStarter fundraising campaign.  (We think we are going to need everyone to turn out for the video shoot in May, and this is your chance to learn more.)
We hope to see you there!
