One of my all time favorite movies. Good scenes of dining and walking home at night in the Heights. When I was a small kid my father taught me to swim in the St. George Hotel pool. He had a small studio overlooking the Promenade if you went out his window and sat on the next door roof. I worked in downtown Brooklyn on Flatbush Ave. for 24 years. Took thousands of walks at lunch through the Heights, along the Promenade, over the Brooklyn Bridge and back and down Atlantic Ave. from Court St. to Flatbush Av. Loved the places to eat, Jamaican Roti shops, Greek take out, fried fish, shrimp and scallop takeout, plus some of the better Indian, Mexican, and Greek restaurants in the area, plus Juniors, plus the places on the water. Did part time work at the Brooklyn Club and the Chamber of Commerce in addition to my full time day job at Con Ed.
