AMNewYork wrote, "In many neighborhoods across the city, the data showed some commonalities between what types of food New Yorkers preferred. Locals chose Seafood as their top cuisine in neighborhoods like Alphabet City, Sunset Park, Mill Basin, and Yorkville. For mealtimes, places like SoHo, Carroll Gardens and Upper East Side favored brunch." (AMNY)

The unidentified man was going between to F train cars in Park Slope near the Seventh Avenue subway station. First responders rushed to the location, but the victim was pronounced dead at the scene.
