About Brighton Beach
Also known as "Little Odessa" due its tight-knit Russian and Eastern European communities, Brooklyn's Brighton Beach is a lively neighborhood with many high-rise residential buildings. Traditional ethnic restaurants and food markets line Brighton Beach Avenue. The beach and boardwalk here are more laid-back than nearby Coney Island, catering largely to locals. Splashy nightclubs attract partiers in the evenings.

Brighton Pride: Beach covered with laughing gas canisters
Laughing Gas canisters littered The Beach , and balloons which can kill marine life when swallowed
Brighton Beach was littered with laughing Gas canisters and balloons by Pride revellers, say Volunteers Cleaning Up after The Event .
Up to 1,000 people have been clearing large amounts of bottles, cans, glass and disposable barbecues.
But they said they had never seen so many Nitrous Oxide canisters in one place.
By 10:00 BST More Than 150 bags of rubbish had already been collected, organisers Ocean's 8 said.
More Than 150 bags of rubbish were collected in two hours, but there is still a lot to doEnvironmental activist and blogger Clare Osborn, of Clare Talks Rubbish, is one of Ocean's 8 and said: "We sound like the fun police, but people really need to find More sustainable ways to have fun.
"Every one of these canisters comes with a balloon, and they are so incredibly dangerous and deadly to wildlife, which can mistake the bits of balloon for food. "
The Gas - Nitrous Oxide - is the second most commonly used recreational drug in England and Wales after cannabis.
But The Royal College of Nursing said many people remained ignorant of the risks, which can include breathing difficulties, dangerously-increased heart rate, burns, and death.
Three time slots have been created throughout The Day for people to go to The Beach and help collect the rubbish.
Core Volunteers then sort it into what can be recycled with TerraCycle, and The Remaining waste which is being collected by Brighton and Hove City Council's Cityclean Service .
Around a quarter of a million people flock to Brighton for the Pride weekend A team of core Volunteers are on site all day, helping to sort the collected wasteAmy Gibson , another member of Ocean's 8 who organises regular Pier 2 Pier Silent Disco beach clean, said she has never seen so much rubbish on The Beach .
"You couldn't even see The Beach in places.
"Normally we find around 20 bags' worth of rubbish after a weekend or an event, but we've collected 10 times that amount in The First two hours of today's clean.
"It's Pride so we expected the glitter, the feather boas and the parts of people's costumes, but I can't believe how many noz canisters there are. "
Volunteers collected bags full of used laughing Gas canistersLegislation introduced in 2016 made it illegal to sell the Gas for psychoactive purposes.
But enforcing the legislation has proved difficult because Nitrous Oxide is used in food products like Whipped Cream , and medicine.
Brighton Pride does not officially hold any events on The Beach , but it said it recognised the impact tourism had, so it had sponsored the clean-up effort.
