My Mott Haven Heaven

What is up my people!!?? You have made it to the all new Brook Avenue: La Familia site - where we all will be a part of raising it.
With your help we should be able to mold and create this website and make this our own huge historic family tree.
This will be your back-up plan of staying in touch with everybody when you don't have time to make a call, but need to able to stay in touch with everyone by simply sending a story, a picture, a video, or just give us a heads up on the latest on what's going on in your neck of the woods and what is the latest with your family.
Whomever you can think of that lived with us on the block back-in-the-day you've got to tell them or send them the name or the link. Or send me the name and email and I can send them an invitation.
It will be easy to stay up on the latest by subscribing to the site. Every time something is posted you will know!

Let me leave you with a little music video to get you talking about our 'other home'! I will find some music or video that I will post once a month.

Look the "Video of the Month" every month because – trust me – I will send you back in time every time.

This is what the jebos are still doing!

Talk to your kids and be proud of where you came from and tell them about the sacrifices we all did to get to where we are today.
Let me hear you!
