There are many busses including the b8 to Brownsville, the s53, s59, s79 to Staten Island, the b1 and b13 to the beaches, and the express busses into the city. You can also catch the ferry at 69th street which takes 45 minutes to get to the city. "

For the Holiday season everyone decorates and makes the neighborhood look awesome but It gets congested with traffic. People travel to this neighborhood to see the lights and many Christmas lights and many home decorations. It's awesome and I love it. "

    "Outrageous homes worth millions that go way beyond with the Christmas decorations that are put up by hired professional decorators. This attracts people from all over who come to walk the residential streets, with their families, taking pictures along the way, during the holiday season. Police have been brought in over the last few years to help manage this phenomenon, which is growing in popularity, and widening in distance."
