"Another Mixed Bag But Busier With Traffic"

E. 198th Street has a mixed bag of blocks One block contains some apartment buildings, while other blocks have a mixture of apartment buildings and small stores. This is basically how East 198th Street goes. The difference between this street and other streets is more traffic flow.

There is also one school along the way. At least that seems to be the only one I could find, unless there are others on side streets that connect to this street.
Pros
  • Plenty of stores
  • Mixed bag
Cons
  • Too many cars around
  • Too many people at times
