Wouldn’t you prefer to be closer to our Princeton- and Harvard-educated governor, son of fabulously wealthy developers?
There’s a client for at least part of your business (and I’m sure he could give you plenty of referrals).
And by the way, until he moved to Albany, he lived on the Upper East Side.
Speaking as a pimp, a drug dealer and a murderer, I can honestly say that I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else.
The place to be.
I love Crown Heights…although I do believe that enclaves like Carroll/Crown/President around Brooklyn should be distinguished separately from the rest of CH. Southern CH is nothing like it’s northern twin.
…course I’m biased…
I am a great fan of Montrose Morris and Bob Marvin because of the love that they have for their little piece of Brooklyn. I’m proud to own in Crown Heights North. CH may not be for everyone, but it doesn’t mean that the neighborhood has to constantly be bashed. We are aware that it’s not perfect, but it’s far from being the cesspool that a previous poster decribed it to be.
There is no need to post statistics regarding the crime rate — we know that crime exists as it does in many areas throughout the boroughs. The bottom line is that we love our neighborhood and we will continue to work together to improve every aspect of it because we’re vested.
As far as the bashers are concerned, keep hating. At least we know that we’ll never have such ignorance among us.
park slope used to be a shithole.
we’ll see what happens.
Monty’s a good egg. But it’s late EST. And the CH debate is sure to continue another day.
NOP
Definitely a step in the right direction. Keep it up.
Glad you are having fun, 9:38. The fact that you take such joy in “needling” me means you have issues far larger than my verbosity. I hope you and your ilk get the much needed help you need, so you can join the human race.
Succinct enough for you?
