so, is it greenwood heights? or south slope? or sunset park? let the raging debate begin...:)

Comments

  • it's sunset park, dood. anybody that says otherwise is a misguided jerk.
  • to the jerk whos said the nabe is really sunset park: get lost. what's your problem? don't you have anything better to do than badmouth our great little neighborhood, the SOUTH SLOPE? geez.....
  • south slope my ANKLE. it's misinformation like this that really rankles me. i'll bet the previous poster hasn't even lived in GREENWOOD HEIGHTS for longer, oh, say, a week. what a poseur. i vote that the moderator of this board BAN him/her for life, on the basis that all his/her posts have been anti-social and anti-productive. what a whanker...
  • wanker? i'll show you who is the wanker! you are! you and your insane rantings, invading our little community and destroying the fabric of lives, just because you're desperately unhappy with your own life you feel the need to dump on others. well, i for one have had enough. this bb is getting totally out of control. it's gentrification i say, cyber-gentrification and it's GOT TO STOP!
  • okay, i sat at my compter for a good thirty seconds after reading before i decided to add a message to your thread or not.

    in the end... gotta say...

    funny, man :lol::lol::lol:
  • Subject: I feel like a broken record...

    Greenwod Hts. is derived from "The Heights of the Green Wood" on maps which predates the Battle of Bklyn (Battle of LI) in 1776.

    It was also known as the "Heights of Gowan" by the British. The Name "Greenwood Hts, Green-Wood Hts. or Hts. of Greenwood" have been used off and on for HUNDREDS of years. Dropped by city zoning maps back in the 1960's, NOW recognized by City Planning after the South park Slope/Greenwood Hts. rezoning in Nov. 2005.

    So, call Community Board 7, City Planning or one of our local electeds and ask them about "Greenwood Hts." 'Nuff said.

    That aside, who cares? It's a nice nabe, as is Sunset Park & the South Slope. Get over it. It's official, according to the city.

    That is really informative. I figured that Real Estate agents made it up to sell North Sunset Park properties at above market value. :lol::lol::lol:
