Point Cres
"BEAUTIFUL SUNSETS AND PEOPLE"
I visited here in the summer to get away from all the work I did all year and I ended up falling in love with the overall atmosphere. I got to lay in a hammock and watch the sunset making the sky different bold and beautiful colors. I did this for most of my summer trip and it felt like day 1 when it was time for me to leave. I enjoyed myself.
Powell Cove Blvd
"Nice Brooklyn neighborhood"
I liked this area. I am very partial to Broooklyn, so I was fimiliar with the street. I like to shop in Riviera Court and come back to where I live now and show all my friends the different styles and fashion they provide. Kind of sad when I had to move away, but I adjust well.

"Thoughts of Petracca Place: Really tranquil and slow paced"
I lived on Petracca Place for two years a long time ago. I just liked the fact that the job I was working was loud and fast paced and coming home to a tranquil and peaceful place. There's not alot of restaurants here, so most of the food I ate was home cooked, therefore more nutritious. I had to move, because of a job transfer and I miss it alot.
Powell Cove Blvd
"Oh my god! It Is So Noisy"
If it was three years prior to this trip, I would've enjoyed partying and living the night life, but loud sounds become a burden. I gave Cove Court two thumbs down. I love a city that's full of life, but this city had just a little too much life and not enough time to rest. I left a day earlier just so I could get a good night's sleep.
25th Ave
"I love the Vibe of 25th avenue"
When I was visiting here while looking for homes, I noticed that there was alot of baseball activity going on. The neighborhood has this big beautiful park filled with laughter and activity. I even joined some of the neighbors as they had a cookout and we played softball. New York is its on public island, but Queens makes it royalty.
Plaza St West
"layed back urban atmosphere"
With the street being so lively, I wouldnt mind going back to visit my relatives on this street. this street along with another, make Grand Army Plaza. I love the way the park is full of diversity and how the neighborhood comes together for block parties and such, The fun atmosphere also helps make times on this block seem more colorful and exciting.
Washington Ave
"I Love it here!"
Oh my goodness! When i visited Washington Avenue, I was in awe. Everthing in New york makes me gasp, but this place reminded me of a little Rodeo Drive in California. The shops with great product and service shops for things like insurance, cosmetics, anything you need or may want. The way the avenue makes its own natural beat with feet walking and friends laughing is wonderful.
Plaza St East
"The infamous Brooklyn Library"
I love this library. Its a nice way to get to peace and quiet. Being in the city is cool, but sometimes it gets overwhelming or your days are stressed and you need to sit in a corner with a good book. This library contained information about my ity that wasnt even in my local library. I seen old newspaper clips dating from 1986-- The year I was born.
Berkeley Pl
"ironically comfortable atmosphere"
Though this street doesnt have much to offer as far as living, It's nightlife is loud and crazy. My aunt lives in brooklyn and took me and my sister on a tour. When we hit berkeley place, for some reason, she turned around like she was tense. I rather enjoyed the little bit of time we were there listening to the different conversations and accents.
