It would be very possible in Flatbush.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Fascinating! I’ve not been to that part of Flatbush apparently
It's weird. There are like four blocks where you feel like you're in a different state. Hugs houses, lawns, the whole nine.
But there no elevated train there.
So I'm guessing the show wants us to think they're in the Sunset Park/Dyker Heights area.

I haven't watched 4 yet. I was at the Fever v Liberty game tonight. But I'm excited to watch it.
Good to know about the spoiler tags! I've been avoiding the thread because of that very fear.
