Step into Prospect Park, sandwiched between the Flatbush and Park Slope neighborhoods, and you may not believe that you haven't left NYC. The park's design is amazing! It's hard to think it isn't natural to the area, but it was constructed for the borough. Do you have any areas where you live that are inconsistent with the surroundings?
