my neck of the woods

The New York Times has an interesting article in this weekend’s City section about the Victorian Flatbush of Brooklyn (a.k.a. where I live). It offers an overview of some of the issues facing preservationists in my neighborhood.

As for myself, I don’t live in one of these fabulous fantasias — my Queen Anne-inspired apartment is decidedly more low key. However, I do pass these two houses on my way to the studio, since they are only two blocks away. I’ve long admired them and was glad to see them get a bit of newspaper attention.

Yes, a tree grows in Brooklyn — and so do full fledged Victorians.
