*** that’s a winter's day in brighton beach! ***

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Vibrant! Nice tour.

So gray!  I need to close my eyes to remember what it looks like in summer.  Those Art Deco apartment buildings are awesome.  Great photo tour!

Well done.

Wonderful thread. I'd heard about that Russian enclave, but hadn't seen many photos of it.

No frills and ethnic. Nice.

dont forget to clik on that summertime thread link at the top if you want to "brighton" this neighborhood up - ha! :D
