I doubt this will ever be fully utilized because it will cost the branch money for landscaping and upkeep. At the other end of the block, the courtyard outside of Vinzee's (RIP) is another lost space. Hopefully something will move in there that will use it to its full potential (provided they keep the music volume down, of course).Trumbull Bullynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36892255.post-86830342198431046102012-05-09T12:12:43.470-04:002012-05-09T12:12:43.470-04:00Carroll Gardens' front yards are often referre...Carroll Gardens' front yards are often referred to as courtyard.<br />From http://carrollgardensbrooklyn.org:<br /><br />"Carroll Gardens is named for the neighborhood's signature setback gardens, which was planned with great foresight by the surveyor Richard Butts in 1846. In that year, a law established the gardens on the four Places between Henry and Smith Streets and deemed the courtyards "shall be built on a line 33 feet 5ΒΌ inches" that "shall be used for courtyards only"."Katiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06484246196723019291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36892255.post-11064901408652321382012-05-09T11:15:53.905-04:002012-05-09T11:15:53.905-04:00Agree it's ugly, but I don't think you kno...Agree it's ugly, but I don't think you know what a courtyard is.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36892255.post-73202341669334568052012-05-08T15:37:39.236-04:002012-05-08T15:37:39.236-04:00At least put a basketball hoop there or something....At least put a basketball hoop there or something....Little Earthquakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08357902966348718076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36892255.post-7163467717962288882012-05-08T11:43:23.784-04:002012-05-08T11:43:23.784-04:00Do people use this bank?
