LIC is not a black neighborhood like that tho... Except queensbridge...

And even Queensbridge is like half black half hispanic I think.

Is this just going to be new offices or warehouses too? I can't imagine the traffic in the Red Hook to Astoria corridor being even worse than it is right now. Driving on 278 or 495.

NYC goes get a W for diversity. I met people from Silicon Valley who are amazed at how diverse the tech jobs in nyc are

Diverse in what exactly? Indians

This is bad for diversity, especially for lower class black folks. They WILL be pushed out and the area will turn into downtown brooklyn. NYC landlords are the greediest in the country, they know Amazon programmers, engineers, want to live near work and are willing to pay top dollar for it. Its gonna be pure fukkery.

You're tripping Breh. You're about to be living around alot of middle class homeless people in a few years

Not me. I'm inland. I dont live next to NYC nor on the shore aint nobody checking for the little ghetto town I live in.

Na ive been to google before. Yea mostly Indian and white but I saw lots of blacks and Hispanics as well. My homie who works there is black and the AA group there’s is pretty large.

But obviously we don’t touch Indians and Asians.

Wow how could I forget that highway has traffic for a whole 60 exits deep down to Long Island

 

[Azul]

I knew about this about 7 months ago. The company I worked for was bidding on a contract to supply the cabling

And you ain't say shyt.

That traffic

If you rent outside the projects in LIC, Astoria, etc...

I remember back in the day Astoria was the best kept secret. Now it’s expensive and might go a step higher and become the Queens Park Slope.
