"Quiet Street close to parks and shopping"

Russell Street is on of the quieter streets. Located right on it is McGorlick Park with a big playground perfect for kids to play and parents to relax on the surrounding benches. There is a Met Food right on Russell and Driggs Ave and plenty of agencies, deli stores, Polish grocery stores, and shopping of all kind very close-by. Although Russell itself is very quiet and calm it is great for eldery people or families with children to enjoy the more seren paart of Brooklyn. I would recommend moving there for anyone who likes quiet but needs to be close to shopping and restaurants. It is very safe and enjoyable, pet friendly and very family oriented.

"For Your Consideration..."

There really isn't much in the way of food on this street, though I think that it has a lot of potential. I was very impressed with the other streets in the neighborhood. I think that it's a nice place to live, and that there are other places to look for interesting restaurants and places to go. All in all, I would say that this is a nice street and should be considered on your move to the city. Don't forget to check out nearby McGorick Park for a nice stroll or to play an outdoor game with your family or friends.
