It's amazing what this WWW can provide. Type in "Brooklyn" and travel back 30 years in a flash. Flatbush Ave. & Cortelyou Road was my world a long long time ago now, but the memories from the past remain fresh.

Sometimes I do wonder what the old neighborhood would look like now, but I think it would probably be best to just remember it the way it was.

Glad I found this page. Sometimes I get homesick. I am now in Maryland for the past 4 years, but originally from Sheepshead Bay.

Nice page.

My Brooklyn was 726 Vermont Street, East New York, half-way between New Lots Avenue and the schoolyard of P.S. 213.

We left suddenly when I was 7, in 1959, following the death of my father. My Brooklyn has the sadness of this loss and the yearning for roots that were never to be.

I have lived in South Florida since then, and though I can find a good eggcream, only other Brooklynites know a frappe is an ice cream sundae from Paul's candy store, and only I remember my first skates from Barts.

Would love a Brooklyn t-shirt.....please email me if you have info!

Thank you for giving Brooklyn a page worthy of the Borough.

I am a professional journalist and a resident of Park Slope. I am interested in finding out about any online writing groups which may exist in Brooklyn, and thought maybe you could be of help.

I will be checking in at this site frequently, and will recommend it to family and friends who plan to visit.
