Park Slope Personal Injury Attorney
Park Slope is a neighborhood in Brooklyn, NY, with homes dating back to the 1800's. It is also a place of new high rise apartment houses, restaurants, shops, bars, schools, places of worship and the ever expanding Methodist Hospital. Park Slope is heavily populated and with increasing numbers of cars, motorcycles, bicycles and pedestrians, there have been more accidents than ever before.
Seventh Ave and Fifth Ave are the commercial centers of the neighborhood and with cars double parked and other cars running red lights and failing to stop at stop signs, there are numerous accidents involving motor vehicles every week. Fourth Ave. is a major roadway connecting many parts of Brooklyn and due to the great volume of traffic, accidents are a regular occurrence. Grand Army Plaza is a complete free for all and one of the most dangerous roadways in the entire city. Prospect Park is closed to motor vehicles and only open to bicycles, but at times can get so crowded, especially with the introduction of Citi Bikes, that bike accidents are very common.
