WELCOME TO BAY RIDGE ETC
Welcome to Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights, the two neighborhoods I recently added to my Brooklyn GPS map. The map really needs to be expanded to include other neighborhoods but work has kept me busy. I know, I know, Manhattan Beach still does not have its beach and Bath Beach should be further to the west. So many nabes, so little time.
I must note that Bay Ridge was somewhat challenging in that its east-west streets are wider than the north-south ones. I ended up using lots of iTrespassing to make the lowercase letters half-a-block wide. It was a decision I made while out running. In the planning stage, I was going to use the entire block's width, thus would not have enough width to spell Ridge, so I started the e in Dyker Heights and it unfortunately overlaps the D in Dyker. Another word to re-write some day perhaps...
