More Professionals Moving to the South Slope
You can down-zone all you want but it’s hard to stand in the way of good old capitalism. In fact, given this sign on 3rd Avenue and 24th Street, we not even sure the wife will let us go to Lowe’s again on our own. Photo credit: Tom Toomey.

You know, if you’re going to make fun of Park Slope, you can at least say where you live, so we can make fun of it too. Its only fair.
My name is Bob and I hereby declare that the area around 3rd Avenue and 24th Street is now, and will forever be known as, Bobtown. I will now commence collecting rent from the whores.
real estate agents are pure evil.
and obviously neither the women of ps or sunset park are putting out.
Call it what you will. It beats Lefferts.
Whore house or not, like it or not, area’s called “Greenwood Hights.” At least it’s what we “over 40, working class folks” call it now. BTW, in this day in age, define “working class,” since there is little to no more “middle class.” I work, make a modest salary (no 6 figures for this boy), aren’t I “working class?”
I have a special name for 24th & 3rd Ave: Apocalyptic-Dungeon-Under-the-BQE. But what a fruit stand!
Haven’t the ever-inventive realtors dubbed the neighborhood under discussion Greenwood Heights? I know I’ve heard it called that several times in the past six months or so (but never before then). As new-fangled names go, it’s not a bad one, as the area abuts Greenwood Cemetery.
I’ve been a whore. Trust me, it’s much more humiliating to have commented on a post about Park Slope. The shame!
Excuse me, how do you know all the over-40s are working class?
