11th St Between 2nd Ave and 1st Ave

In many ways, 11th Street is a lot like any other street you'd find down here in the village. A combination of quirky stores and restaurants sharing the space with a school and apartments – both old and new. The St.Marks Church is an easy landmark to spot from the western side of the block, but unless you count Atomic Wings, the same can't be said for the eastern intersection.

The middle of the block is wide open and airy thanks to the playground/open yard connected to the Tass Elementary School. Across from this yard a series of boutiques struggle to gain your attention with garish signs and bright colors.
