I'm surprised to see Brooklyn Heights on the negative list.

Sheepshead Bay--I suppose, although I personally had a bad experience there. I lived there for five years.

Bay Ridge--those folks know how to keep their blocks safe.

It's unique to New York City, seeing someone from the past on a Subway Car, someone that you were once close to, that you no longer have any contact with. Some brief eye contact, maybe a smile, and they gone, never to be seen again except for that brief encounter.
