Re: (rshsdepot) my nominations for crime: 3rd & Townsend, S.F. & LIRR Flatbush Ave.



Paul, there was just always something really unappealing about that LIRR
Flatbush station, and I'm normally just nuts for anything old whatsoever.
But if you do want to save it, I know the guy who has a major part of it
(yup, all that rock), and as Brooklyn prospers, he's running out of empty
lots to move the stuff around to.  You wanna find a location and come up
with a plan, I can put you in touch . . .
