“The Hole, New York”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

The Hole is a small neighborhood in New York City on the border between Brooklyn and Queens.^[1] It is a low-lying area, with a ground level that is {{convert|30|ft|m}} lower than the surrounding area.^[2]^[3] The area is run-down, and suffers from frequent flooding.^[4] It has been described as a "lost neighborhood",^[5] and as resembling a border town from the Wild West.^[6] It is generally bordered by Ruby Street, South Conduit Avenue, and Linden Boulevard. Nearby neighborhoods include East New York, Lindenwood, Howard Beach and Ozone Park.

In 2004, The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) made plans to connect the neighborhood to the city's sewer system to combat the flooding by raising the land.^[2]

In 2010, Filmmakers Courtney Fathom Sell & Billy Feldman made a short documentary about the neighborhood. The film includes interviews with some of the residents as well as members of the Federation of Black Cowboys. The film premiered at Rooftop Films in 2011 and has since been archived at the Brooklyn Historical Society & Anthology Film Archives.^[9]^[10]^[11]
