Brookline is a friendly neighborhood in the South Hills of Pittsburgh. If you look at a map of Pittsburgh neighborhoods, you'll see that this one is the second-largest neighborhood in the city. I spent a lot of time in Brookline while dating my ex, a resident there. Despite its friendly atmosphere, I quickly realized while trekking around the neighborhood, camera in tow, that there wasn't much to shoot there. I'm not saying that to put it down or anything, don't get me wrong.
One thing I enjoy about this neighborhood is its abundance of pizza parlors an
d bars. Hot damn! If there's two things I love, it's pizza and beer. Haha. I've been to the bar Zippy's a handful of times. One night while we were there, I was so amused by the cast of characters at this place, I was probably a GUFFAW away from pissing someone off and getting my ass kicked.

The best thing about this city, in my humble opinion, is that it really feels like a neighborhood. While driving down the streets, I've noticed that families talk to one another. They wave hello and chat by each other's fences. It's nice.... It's homey.
