"Now exiting Park Slope"
This is around the area where boundaries start to blur: 16th Street isn't Park Slope - at least not by any account I know of - but it isn't Sunset Park either - that's a ways further south. But even though you're not too close to the glamorous Park Slope brownstones and the row houses on 16th just aren't as pretty as those on, say, 3rd St, you're still in good hands with this area.
You're close to the action on 5th and 7th Aves (though admittedly the action is better if you travel north on these streets), but far from the bar noise and the shopping traffic. Sure, it's a long walk to the Park Slope Food Coop from here, but they'll still let you join!

Pros
- It's quiet, not much traffic outside of a few intersections
Cons
- Kind of a far walk from true Park Slope grandeur

"A rather long street with plenty to do"
16th street is a relatively quiet street in south brooklyn. My favorite place on this street is Java Indonesian Rijsttafel, an excellent restaurant with grand portions, friendly service, and perfect food. Another great place to go, for those about 21 that is, is Farrell's Bar and Grill. This is a some-what rundown place that has good, cheap beer, and decent food, as well as friendly and helpful service. Overall, I recommend 16th street for those looking for a fun night.
