Get to know my new neighborhood by examining remnants of its history. Kevin Walsh's Forgotten New York site has been on my bookmark list since I moved here. It's a testament to his range that he has several articles about the non-trendy parts of Bushwick that I now call home. Turns out my corner displays one of the oldest wall ads in the whole city! Actually, when I go home tonight I'm gonna have to look for this, cuz honestly I never noticed it before. Hey, I'm new, cut me some slack.

Other Good bits:

• A Trip Across Myrtle & Knickerbocker
• Forgotten Bushwick
• Impressive Building at Gates J stop Used to be RKO Theater
• Following Fulton from my old neighborhood to my new one (sort of)
• History of the Franklin Shuttle (not in Bushwick but I always wanted to know its history)
