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.

145 Lincoln Road

Don't Miss This One - a classic post from the historian who goes by the alias Montrose Morris, this particular subject is 145 Lincoln Road. She's the bomb, y'all. A true hometown treasure. And yes, that's her picture, and her real name is Suzanne Spellen. Sorry to let the cat out of the bag, but sheesh she deserves the accolades, not some long-dead architect named Montrose!

The guy with the huge dog who hangs out outside of Ray's lives in that building. That's my only contribution to the history lesson!
