On the heels of yesterday’s post about Berkeley Place residents who don’t want speedbumps on their block comes this photo from a reader who lives in the Clinton Hill Co-ops and witnessed the aftermath of a car accident at the corner of Waverly Place and Willoughby Avenue, a location, he points out, that’s seen its fair share of accidents in its day. “This happens all the time – cars roar down Waverly Avenue from Myrtle Avenue and blow the stop sign at Willoughby and ‘wham,'” he writes. “Why can’t we get some of the speed bumps like they just installed on Berkley Place in Park Slope?” For what it’s worth, we’ve got them on Grand Avenue and people still speed down the street.
In Philly, I live at the corner of Waverly and 12th Street. Waverly is one of those “in between” streets…not a full two lane street but wider than the very narrow “carriage streets”
Thank you, mopar. You’ve been on here long enough to know that when I post, as infrequent as it may be, that I’m always “spot on”, correct, concise and always right. 🙂

Does anyone know if this Willoughby St. is named after the same Willoughby of Willoughby Coachbuilders from 1898-1938 in Utica, NY???

Dave, you are spot on about the window box and green paint color.
that house comes with parking.
speaking of speed bumps (im all for them btw) but they put a new speed bump in the parking lot at the TD bank on the corner of 1st st and 5th ave in park slope. guess who was stumbling home one night and decides to take a detour thru the parking lot and falls face first on the ground over the speed bump? me. u think i can sue? i didnt hurt myself tho and im not a big fan of frivolous lawsuits anyway.
