Talk:Bergen Beach, Brooklyn

Identifying boundaries for Bergen Beach, Brooklyn, NY
have noted area which does not appear to be part of the neighborhoods of canarsie or mill basin or flatlands. epodunk has a description but is not explicitly written. and unfortunately i am not specifically familiar with this neighborhood. if you are, then feel free to go ahead and put this up. also, the name of the western waterway boundary (traveling north in the description below) -is that West Mill Basin? below is my attempt to define the boundaries:

Boundaries of Bergen Beach, Brooklyn, NY Bergen Beach has an irregular shaped boundary. Starting at its northernmost point at the intersection of Ralph Ave and Flatlands Ave, its boundary leads southeast along East Mill Basin (parallel to Bergen Ave), then west along Avenue Y (its southernmost border), turning north along another (name unknown) Basin and continuing north along East 68th Street, turning west along Veterans Ave continuing into Avenue N, and finally north along Ralph Avenue back to the starting point.

[ I have consulted a Hagstrom map: East Mill Basin is the west, not east boundary. Paerdegat Basin is the name of the waterway east of Bergen Beach, running roughly parallel to Bergen Ave. However, according to the map, the boundaries described below include Georgetown as well. ]

Just east of the neighborhoods of Flatlands and Mill Basin, Bergen Beach has an irregular shaped boundary (at least one source indicates the northernmost section within these boundaries is the neighborhood of Georgetown). Starting at its northernmost point at the intersection of Ralph Ave and Flatlands Ave, its boundary leads southeast along Paerdegat Basin (roughly parallel to Bergen Ave), then west along Avenue Y (its southernmost border), turning north along East Mill Basin and continuing north along East 68th Street, turning west along Veterans Ave continuing into Avenue N, and finally north along Ralph Avenue back to the starting point.
