Not sure why you mention Brooklyn but I am an ex-New Yorker. People from Brooklyn know or care little about it's history. Brooklyn WAS the suburbs of Manhattan. Few from Brooklyn know that both Brooklyn and Queens are on Long Island. Parking in Brooklyn?
Where can you park? When you find a parking spot you need to look in all the bushes, trees etc for the sign that says why you can't park there. The meter maid, will be out to ticket you as soon as she finishes her one the job coffee. Been there, done that. Why we left.
