“Name: FLATenD
Submitted By: ‘asdasd werett’
Boundaries: Starting at the the intersection of Flatbush and Atlantic, ending at Dean.
Description: Site of Ratner’s arena. Populated by scrappy contrarians and stubborn hotties who believe that developers can go to hell. Where they can block all the light in hell. Block all the light from the flickering flames of hell.”

“Spotted on Park Place this morning. I felt bad for the little guy, but picking plush or upholstered items up off the street is usually a bad idea.”

Parking Becomes Even More Impossible in Prospect Heights

From the
I-Thought-You-Couldn’t-Do-This-Anymore dept.:

Observe the freshly poured concrete, sloping gently downward toward the curb, its edge decisively painted a bold and forbidding yellow.

Observe the brand new black metal gate with its prominent NO PARKING sign.

This can mean only one thing: You can count on spending an extra 1.89 minutes cruising for a parking spot next time you’re foolish enough bring your non-garaged vehicle back to Prospect Heights after 6 pm.
