2 2009 Travel Guide 5th Ave., 22nd to 21st St. Brooklyn, NY by: Elena Dubas This book was made for The Work Office (TWO) w w w.the workoffice.com

3 This book highlights some of the businesses on 5th Avenue between 22nd and 21st. I recently moved to South Park Slope in Brooklyn, NY. I love being able to walk to the local stores and the idea of becoming a familiar face at these places. I was excited to begin my project, a travel guide for my block, for The Work Office. It allowed me to learn about my new neighborhood in a short time. I want to thank the businesses and everyone who took time out of their busy day to answer my questions and helped me with making this book. I greatly appreciate it. It was a pleasure meeting you and I look forward to seeing you again. As a thank you, each business featured here will receive an editioned 2009 Travel Guide for 5th Avenue between 22nd and 21st streets.
