      I think we lack regular posters from that intersection.

      For better or worse, the change on Nostrand is going to make the change on Franklin look minor.

      236 Schnectady would be located on Schnectady Ave. between Sterling and St. Johns Places; that would be one physical "block" east of the block that was posted as having the highest number of shootings in New York City by the NYTimes (2 or 3 years ago).

      Article reference by bklyn50 was published June 2009

      NYT » 
      The bloodiest block in Brooklyn was in the 77th Precinct, in Crown Heights, bounded by Schenectady Avenue, Sterling Place, Troy Avenue and St. Johns Place.

      Gee...my office is on St. Johns bet. Schenectady and Troy and in the 7 1/2 years I've been here I've only heard of three shootings and one stabbing. Doesn't seem out of line. Of course many may happen on the weekends when I'm not here.
