Thanks so much for the info. I checked out Dyker Heights on the map. I've been to NYC several times - once with a college classmate - and one of the most memorable experiences I've ever had (no it wasn't the Empire State building or the million other tourist attractions!) and one which I'll never forget was crossing the Verazanno Narrows bridge from Staten Island to Brooklyn. I was - and still am - overpowered by that awesome experience. To me that suspension bridge is a miracle. We were told that cars were not even permitted on the upper tier on very windy days. The actual drive over it was utterly breathtaking and inspiring. But being on the bridge wasn't the ultimate source of awe - no,it was when we went around that "circle" in the Belt Parkway and beheld the bridge in all its splendid majesty and grandeur from a distance. It's an engineering marvel and such things impress me more than most sights. That must seem to be very mundane to you who grew up so close to it and to whom it was so familiar. But it to me it will always be one of the unforgettable events of my life. I've had the good fortune to visit many of our states and even went to Europe once -- but that bridge will always be at the top of my list. I realize to you this may seem somewhat absurd -- but that's how it is!
