I was very close friends with his sister Olga. I remember that day as if it was yesterday. The woman that hit him was so shaken up by what she had done. I remember the police officers riding her car up and down the street to see if she had been speeding but learned that he had ran out into the street because some boys had taken his school bag and he was running after them. The accident was not her fault. The block was quiet for days . Do u still keep in contact with any family members I would love to find Olga. |

I went to Tilden and have been following Brians photos for years. Didn't know about the East New York Project till today. Any info on my address would be great. My other location is on Flatbush Ave and thru Brians pix I found out we are at the location of the Winter Garden Dance Theater. Great stuff. |

I didn't know it was available until I read a referral to it in "My Brooklyn." The photos are great. They bring back so many memories. Thanks for all your hard work. I've recommended the site to many people. Hope they look at it and enjoy!! One question that I have...when searching the guestbook for something like "Cypress Hills," and the database shows many numbered pages at the bottom of the search - are they supposed to bring you to the next page? When I click 2, for example, it goes back to the search page and you have to re-enter the word. Please advise and thanks again!!
