My Apartment

I lived here about 4 years, as the picture shouws 7th Av 49th street,
I take this picture in the dusk, but you can see it clearly, every block has a traffic sign: light, stop sign, one-way sign and so on. The frame of the streets on Brooklyn are similar. My apartment's direction as the arrow shows on the right side that is between 6th and 7th Av, but if you start at 7th Av, you just need few second and you can see my apartment.






This orientation is in front of my apartment, I took the picture when the bus passed through the street in front of my apartment. This bus which called B11, I can hear the sound from the bus when I am awake in the morning. It is going to stop at the subway station after 10 minutes from here, therefore, I often take it for work or school. As the picture shows you can see many cars park there. Furthermore, you can see three garbage can, in the early morning, the old couple who lived in basement clean up and neaten those garbages, let's see the blue one in the right side is for the water bottle, soda can, and other container; the other 2 is for the sundries and papers.
This is my apartment, every one can see the style of buildings are similar on the whole row. These apartments connect and without space. Each apartment lived at least 3 families: basement, first floor, and the second floor. My apartment lived 4 families, but people had lack of communication in my building as we discussed in class.


When you go to the second floor, you can see two doors. I lived on the right side. Tonight is the Chinese New Year's Eve, so, you can see the patterns pasted on the doors. In our culture, the red color is dexter. People paste those patterns for luck. As the custom, you can find out that people who lived in the left side are Chinese ,too. Sometimes, i can see the women takes her children to the school in the morning.


Those are the pictures I took today. After you view these pictures and my descriptions do you know more about my apartment?
