Anyone here from Co-op City Bronx ?

[010101]

You never lied..My world is so different from the crazy shyt i here..

but i stay to myself

we in a different loop*

I always wonder about that place whenever I drive by on the interstate

Shout out to Co-op 5th city Aka 5OO BLOCC ... been residing here since I was 10 , shyt is a parody of an actual hood though because it isn't the projects but niccas want to treat as such instead of embracing the perks of what co-op provides ..

Wasn't raised here, but staying with family in co op now., lived here in the past..

Nice place, but I don't like the area. Takes forever to travel by public transportation, not one single decent eatery -- and most close way too early (got to take a bus to a diner in a lil while), it's basically not a normal NYC neighborhood. Lots of very old people.

Though I like the consistency of calm for a Bronx area. Bay Plaza is great , and Orchard Beach is very close.

I have a lot of complaints about this place, but I've only had one issue with drama (don't know how tough these people are, I mean it's Co op, but it's still Bronx nikkas). Generally people are real cool, lot of hard working, nice people, and police patrol well (one of the safest places in the Bronx, with very few stories of police aggression). It's what I need right now, and I'd be homeless if it weren't for my family so yeah, I'm here for a bit, so I'm grateful and just try not to spend too much time here unless I'm home.

Which section you live in ?

It's the largest house cooperative housing development in the world , having a population of 50,000 people & was predominantly black so the probablity of some from co-op being a member on here could be likely . Growing up there was a fun experience . Even though it wasn't the projects , it accepted section 8 so it just felt like a more glorified project with balconeys . My section of co-op section 5 used to beef with the Valley faithfully as teens shyt did tend to hectic though but we always assembled as a team when conflict came .

How'd you resolve the conflict with The Valley, long enough to go against the others?

Do you get a good view of the city from the higher floors?

I lived on a block between secor and co-op during middle school/through high school

it's cool only went to co-op to kick it with my nikkas and fukk broads

they did have a old sneaker spot that I used raid the stock room for old kicks
but I barely wear nikes and j's now so

I move smoothly can't say the same for enough nikkas I grew up with jumped/thrown on the 5line tracks/stabbed/shot/locked etc.


funny thing is shyt always seems so peaceful for me
all the while I'm getting stories of dumb shyt poppin off from all over





dummies shoulda been coolin like me but life goes on

I can see matthattan from my window , depending on which floor/side of the building you reside at you can damn near see almost every building in NYC and deeper

It is , but Co-op isn't the projects even though it might as well be classified as one lol
