What part of brooklyn is that considered?

[johnd248]

Fair question.  Some maps say Bensonhurst, although most people think of Bensonhurst being more south.  It is too far north to be Dyker Heights.  One map refers to it as either New Utrecht or Mapleton and both of those names are not commanly used in Brooklyn.
