There was nothing like being born and raised in Brooklyn in the 70s and 80s A Borough of “Two Brooklyns” In the ’70s and ’80s, Brooklyn often felt split in two. Some neighborhoods—Park Slope, Brooklyn Heights, Bay Ridge—still had stability and tight-knit middle-class life. Others—Bushwick, Brownsville, East New York—were dealing with vacant lots, burned-out buildings, and disinvestment. You could walk a few blocks and feel like you were in a completely different city. | Old Boro Park Brooklyn

UPDATE: Witnesses say the shooting at a San Jose business that sent four people to the hospital happened during an after-hours party. http://nbcbay.com/rFUjAfg | NBC Bay Area
