Modern OG history—2023: Triangle Park: a hypotenuse of roses.

By Paul Goldfinger, Editor Blogfinger.net. 2023.  Watch for our summer 2024 update when we interview Reenie and her neighbors.

Triangle Park was an unruly place at the OG North End—an overgrown woodsy and brambly space where Mt Tabor meets Delaware Avenue and Asbury Avenue.

Some of the neighbors took  steps to obtain botanical order without much success, but last year some folks  who live around the park decided to restore order.  So they got together and went to work. And now everything’s coming up roses.

The leader of the pack is Reenie Van Buren who dwells across the street. She’s a restauranteur with a green thumb. Reenie  is the leader of the locals who turned this triangle into an equilateral rose park.

This Grover  operates the Back in Time Café at the Bradley Beach train station for incredible breakfast and lunches.

And for Blogfinger.com  it’s all the hypotenews  that’s fit to print.

 

Here is  Angela Lansbury with a rousing number  from Gypsy:

And here is Ann Dee from Thoroughly Modern Millie with a floral tribute to a square in New York.
