"If you're thinking of living in Gravesend"

This is the title of an August 16, 1986 feature in the New York Times. http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9A0DEFD61039F933A2575BC0A960948260

Some interesting facts listed:

- School children corresponded with children from Gravesend, England and they even exchanged basketball teams.

- Bill Cosby filmed a television show on East 1268 East 14th Street.

- One family homes sold for $200,000!

Interesting to get a glimpse of the old neighborhood.
