Blogroll Update

NY:

Ditmas Park Blog- Ben Smith, and his very cool wife Liena, have started a blog about their neighborhood, once called Flatbush, now called "Ditmas Park." The first person to find anything resembling a park anywhere near Ditmas, um, wins.

Picky! Prospect Park isn't even 5 blocks away.

No way! Prospect Park is much further and, anyway, Prospect Park is in the neighborhood of "Prospect Park".

"Ditmas" is an Iroquois word for "he who must make do without"

What Ari said - the Cortelyou Q stop is 5 (very) long blocks from Prospect Park (as are several other neighborhoods not called Prospect Park - by the way, is there even a Prospect Park neighborhood? It almost sounds like you're becoming a Manhattanite and forgoing those Brooklyn roots of yours...)

GASP. You take that back. There is (or perhaps was before the Real Estate people got too smart for their own good) a neighborhood called Prospect Park. There was never a neighborhood called Prospect Heights. Ditto for Ditmas Park, Lefferts Gardens or any number of other made up names.

Don't tell me you're working for Bruce Ratner now!?
