Anne Pope: Frank Jump and I have been friends – and sometimes collaborators – since 1988. When I first thought about doing a StoryCorps session, he was the first person I wanted to interview.

Everybody’s story matters. Every life counts. Help us reach out to record our history, hopes, and common humanity—and illuminate the true character of this nation. StoryCorps.net

I had to leave before the meeting ended due to illness, but last Wednesday was the final planning meeting of Imagine Flatbush 2030, hosted by the Municipal Art Society of NY and the Flatbush Development Corp. Establishing measurable goals and tracking methods for Flatbush’s present & future sustainability was the intended task. This is just a beginning, but a hopeful sign that this community has committed member who will work hard at making Flatbush a place where many talented young and mature people, of all walks of life, will want to stay.

Check out the Brooklyn blog about:

Sustainable Flatbush [which] provides a neighborhood-based forum to discuss, promote and implement sustainability concepts in Brooklyn and beyond. This blog is maintained and moderated by Anne Pope. She promises to keep real estate and politics out of the discussion. (Well, maybe a little politics.)

Keka, Chris (Flatbush Gardener) and Anne (Sustainable Flatbush) at Flatbush Frolic, September 16, 2007

Chris took me to visit his garden and I took these shots. Forget the names of the flowers. Such a lovely hidden world within earshot of the Coney Island Avenue din.
