About me

I ‘m a lawyer working part time in Manhattan and living in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn with my husband, 5 year old and 3 year old. We’re vocal members of the 99% with particular interest in public education and more recently in foreclosure prevention. Over the years we have been active in Community Shared Agriculture, our local community garden, babysitting coop, PS 9 and its PTO, and Friends of Underhill Playground.

“718″ is a reference to the outer boroughs of NYC, the area code for Brooklyn, the Bronx, Queens and Staten Island. This is my personal blog.

  1. Hi Cynthia –

    I was wondering if you are still part of the Prospect Heights babysitting co-op. I read your blog post from last year. I am currently working on a story with WABC on the topic of babysitting co-ops and was hoping to provide them with a group to talk to for the story. Feel free to email me at mcrowley@care.com.

    Many thanks,
    Mark
