Brooklin Novo
Brooklin Novo (Portuguese for ''"New Brooklyn"'') is a neighborhood in São Paulo, Brazil. It is delimited by Bandeirantes Avenue, Marginal Pinheiros, and Santo Amaro Avenue in the Itaim Bibi District of the city. It is bordered by the neighborhoods of Brooklin Velho, Vila Olímpia, Moema, Vila Cordeiro, and the district of Morumbi. History Given its proximity to the neighborhood of Vila Olimpia, the neighborhood essentially has the same history, because both were created and developed at the same time.

Bandeirantes Avenue
Bandeirantes Avenue (in Portuguese: ''Avenida dos Bandeirantes'' - ''see Bandeirantes)'' is one of the most important avenues of São Paulo, serving as one of the main access roads to the Congonhas Airport, as well as a link between Marginal Pinheiros highway and Rodovia Anchieta and Rodovia dos Imigrantes.

On July 28, 2010, Mayor Gilberto Kassab announced a ban on trucks on the road on weekdays between 5:00 AM and 9:00 PM (21 ...
