GH, what street are you on?
DH, do enough people flag them that they come down?
p.s., Greenwood General loves his Greenwood, and wouldn’t want to live anywhere else (even if the neighborhood boundary moves South of his house a little bit every day and eventually leaves him back in the Slope, as seems to be happening.)
Greenwoodgeneral, I salute you!
Greenwood is a state of mind… a mood. Greenwood is wherever people are too far South to feel truthful or proud to they say they live in the Slope, and yet too far North to give up on the notion that they didn’t move to Sunset Park.
However, if you start adding ‘heights’ to the name, you’d probably have to get more specific. If you are ‘in the heights’, and in the 30s, you are six feet or more under the earth.
If you are west of 5th avenue, it’s not really that high… (the people in the cemetary 6 feet under the ground might even be at a higher elevation than your roof…)
Happy Holidays. Please take this in a lighthearted spirit, and take care in the new year.
“DH, depends on who you ask. For those of us who live in GH proper, SP doesn’t start until 36th St. Ask a broker and 30th St is PS South. :-)”
screw brokers (yeah you, i know you’re reading)
Apparently Prospect Heights extends to Nostrand Ave
and Williamsburg borders Ridgewood, Queens and East New York
oh, and Fort Greene extends to Marcy Ave
I have a new hobby – flagging every listing on Craigslist that has a neighborhood misrepresnted. Screw them
LOL Joe! 20th and 21st are quite busy and loud. Ok…let’s inch her on up to 19th or 18th and talk turkey.
actually, i still do that now…
Move that GH house about 10 more blocks north and I’d be all over it.

Snappy, noooo!! Make sure that ‘about 10 blocks north’ doesn’t include 20th st. I lived there for a year and the sound of 18 wheelers trying to scale the hill to Prospect Expressway in unbearable. I cried myself to sleep every night….
