Greenpoint

An interesting section of Brooklyn, New York, where much of the population is, and speaks, Polish, Ukrainian, and Lithuanian. Known for good Polish restaurants, and very easy to get to by train from Manhattan or Queens (you can see Manhattan's beveled Citicorp Tower from most of the streets). Near Metropolitan Ave. just a few blocks away from the beginning of Greenpoint, there's a beautiful Russian Orthodox church with maroon onion domes and gold crosses.
My drothers are for a Polish restaurant, so let's have some chow in Greenpoint!

greenpoint

Pronounced by the locals "Green-pernt." All manner of animal innards hanging in the windows. St. Stan's church was said to bankroll many of the Poles who moved into the neighborhood. The church would give them loans that they could not get at banks, and build life-long reverence.

Greenspoint 

Greenspoint is Known for being one of Houston's worst hoods. The business district has a lot of low income housing units along insterstate 45, but there are more offices than bedrooms. Since the 1980s oil glut, the district has remained a hotbed of criminal activity. People who don't live in Greenspoint usually refer to it by its popular moniker: Gunspoint.

Advice for being in Greenspoint:
Don't leave your car alone for long periods.
Greenspoint mall? Forget it.

Don't go looking for trouble because you will find it.

Greenport 

a place filled with chain stores, potheads, alcoholics, smokers, creepy mexicans, dollar stores, gross whores pushing around babies in strollers, gritty park districts overflowing with drug paraphernalia, poseurs who think that being black and being emo is one and the same, people who start unpractical gang wars with you, police, gross school lunches, and just the general public who does not know how to socialize with the rest, of this normal, civilized world.
Maya: Yeah, Greenport's like ew. Don't go there.
Sally: Why not?
Maya: Have you seen the newspaper, the Suffolk times? It's constantly in the headlines.
Sally: ahh, wow. that's so lame. Greenport can just die.
Maya: It slowly is. Greenport is a ghost town during the winter months.
Sally: Oh, werd. I am definitely never chilling in Greenport.
