Reflections of Your Favorite East End Landmarks

The Greater East End Management District conducted a survey at their booth at this past Saturday’s East End Street Fest asking attendees two questions:

  • What’s your favorite East End landmark?
  • What mode of transportation did you use to get to the Street Fest?
