"Pluses and minuses"

Eh, Beadel isn't a terrible street; but, I wouldn't want to live on it. It's in the northern part of Willy just across the BQE from Greenpoint. So, the plus side is that you're basically in between two pretty hip neighborhoods. The bad part is that you're on the outskirts of both. You're about a ten minute walk away from a park, but the park is McGolrick park which isn't the better one of the two Greenpoint parks. But, it's definitely quieter than McCarren. And, you're about a 10-15 minute walk away from the Graham stop of the L Train and the Nassau stop of the G train. That's no terrible but it's not great during a blizzard or when you're in a hurry, that's for sure.
The rent is much cheaper up here than it is in the thick of Greenpoint and especially down by the Graham. And, there are some really nice apartments on this street mixed in with ones that are a bit dated but bigger than anything you can find around Bedford. But, there's not much around here except for like one deli. You have to walk at least 10 minutes for a bar, restaurant, store, etc which makes it pretty inconvenient. And, because there isn't anything near this street, there aren't a lot of people out at night which makes it a little sketchy in my opinion.
Pros
  • cheap rent
  • some nice apartments
  • up and coming
Cons
  • Not developed yet
  • A bit of a hike to anything

"I'm A Tough Critic"

This street was very similar to the streets nearby it: boring. It is very close to the BQE or Brooklyn Queens Expressway. The nearest metro stop is at Graham Street (L Train). This street does house a nice produce market, though the rest of the business are geared toward truckers I would think. This isn’t really a window shopping street, I would say. It’s also not much to look at. All in all, I would say that this is an average street in a boring part of Brooklyn.
