	Old Brooklyn's Canarsie
		To quote from the NY Times, July 2, 2007 (from where this picture was taken), "Not far from Dreamland (in Coney Island), another dreamland once flourished, complete with a tunnel of love, King Pharaoh the 'Wonder Horse' and once visited by a young star named Mae West"...
		It was once known as the Canarsie Meadows, and was home to many African-American families around the turn of the century.
		Canarsie then underwent changes as the new Circumferential Highway [Belt Parkway] around Jamaica Bay was completed and the shore improved.
