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.

Watch Debate at LPT at Rescheduled Date and a Banksy-esque work in Caledonia

Mary S. sent me word that a bunch of folks are organizing a Debate Watch Wednesday night (Oct 30) at Lincoln Park Tavern at 6:15 in order to get a buzz on before the 7pm kickoff. Should be fun, especially if Jimmy "Rent Is Too Damn High" McMillan is at the podium. The first 30 people to arrive get...um...a seat!

And what's this?


Caught on film by Elizabeth C. this sweet piece of art isn't funny or audacious enough to be an ACTUAL Banksy, but it seems quite apropos for its 123 on the Park (formerly Caledonian Hospital) location. The Q may not know a lot about art, but he know what he likes. And I likes.

I believe the debate was moved to Wed?
