"Scary town"
There's not really much to say about this little stretch of land except for that it creeps me out. I don't often go east of Ave C and this is pretty much why. There aren't any bars and restaurants so there aren't a lot of people walking around at night. This makes me think east of C is a crime waiting to happen. And, East 4th Walk is east of D if that gives any indication of the wasteland we're talking about here. For one, the East River isn't exactly a gorgeous view. Brooklyn doesn't quite have the skyline that Manhattan does and the East River might as well be just a massive sewer.
As far as housing, this block is taken up by Lillian Wald Houses. It's a housing project that looks exactly like a housing project. Every time I see this building I can't help but think of the horror film Candyman. There's nothing to do and nothing to see unless you're a big fan of watching Meth heads chase each other. I would advise against hanging out or living here if you can at all help it.
