You’re walking down Flushing Avenue. The factories surround you, the road is busy, the heavy traffic of trucks and cars makes you want to explode. Additionally, the sun is frying your brain, and the sweat is dripping from your face. You keep on walking and walking. The only thing you wish for is an oasis to appear out of nowhere. A little white farmhouse surrounded by a green meadow…  And wait a minute, suddenly an 18th century Dutch farm manifests right in front of you. No, this is not a lucid dream. This is reality, and you just came across Onderdonk House on the border of Brooklyn and Queens. In fact, the rock to mark the border is right there in the garden of Onderdonk House. So called Arbitration Rock.
