That's nice. I live in park slope on 8th avenue and 3rd street and the slope looked great back then. An now we are but a gallery of Yuppie hipsters :-(
I grew up on 3rd street between 4th and 5th Avenue, across the street from the park. Best time of my life. My uncle lived at 300 8th avenue on 3rd street his whole life.
Wow!! Park Slope when it was a working-class neighborhood!! The days before gentrification turned it into a Yuppies-Only haven. It's been my father's home since, atleast, the early 1960's. He's still there, on Eighth Avenue and First Street. Amazing!!
WOW I HAVENT SEEN BROOKLYN IN OVER 20 YEARS HOW I LOVE MY HOME TOWN BROOKLYN!!!

Wow, this video shows what a great neighborhood Park Slope used to be. Just full of regular working families living their lives.
Now it's become nothing but an out-of-town yuppie cesspool. Such a shame.

Wow! I was born and raised in the Slope, before it became snooty - what a nice thing to see old Brooklyn, and nice, old Brooklyn people!
