Strollin around neighborhood

Week1.

I strolled around the neighborhood a lot this week, had to go in half a day to work Monday just to show up and say "I am here" kinda useless but oh well. luckily i had Tues-Thurs off to get stuff done.
The place i am in is a old school polish immigrant neighborhood. It's pretty quiet where i live, lots of families, some schools, there is a small park 1 block away. Monsigner Mcgolrick park. lots of people take there dogs here and relax.




Standing from the park entrance, i live at the end of the block on the right side.



I live in this building



There is also two Churches nearby, one is named after Pope John Paul II. Makes sense since he was polish and it's a polish neighborhood.



One street is called Manhattan Ave. Lots of 99c shops, two really good sushi places(tried both) Thai food, Chinese food, have yet to try the good polish food place called Christina's.



Warsaw pact, Twilight 2000!!



There is also another big park about 4 blocks south of me, called Mclaren park. Lots of free music in the summer and plenty of people hanging out doing whatever.






Also if you go through the park on the other side(15 min walk) there is also a cool neighborhood where the "Hipsters" hang out, i am not sure what that means but its like the young cool kids. It's a neighborhood called Williamsburg, plenty of bars down that area I visited two bars with my friend Eric F. from the old Bechtel tech days and his Girlfriend. So plenty of bar hopping to do in the future. It's also the hotspot for Brooklyn live music..works out nicely.
