That's yall problem. You guys swear there wasn't any sense of community when those things were going on. First of all, Clinton Hill was never THAT wild like how you describe it. Sure...shyt had its fukk ups, but people weren't as closed off as these new folks are that rely on thinking those rapes, robberies and murders you're overrating was the end all of the neighborhood and gives them a right not to be cordial, ain't that right @GinaThatAintNoDamnPuppy!this woman sound hurt as fuk. Maybe she's a loud ignorant bytch and the dude doesn't want anything to do with her?
Its crazy bc the woman looks old and probably grew up when there were thousands of rapes, robbies murder and other human brutality but she's offended bc some dude who prob doesn't give a shyt about her won't say good morning
Im just saying her complaints look foolish. Would you go infront of a judge and use the argument that the neighbourhood is worse off than it was because some kid didn't say good morning to you?
And how big of an ego must you possess for an interaction like that to even be stuck in your brain
you on the defense...seems like in this thread people act like BK was the wild wild west or a goddamn jungle. Fort Greene's has always been a nice area since I could remember. I also think age plays a factor also on how things and areas are viewed. Younger people might find an area dangerous, as opposed to older folks who probably don't pay any mind to those things, hence them not being afraid.
that can't be true.

IDK the history of the ownership of those neighbourhoods so i can't really speak on it in depth im just going by what i see/read, do black's own anything their? Because just living their for 50 years isn't going to actually get you anything for yourself, ppl been places livin for like 1000 years and lost it bc they didn't actually have any action plan for the place and they didn't take command of the ownership of it. It's rather that or the black people DID own all the infrastructure and sold it off, in which case they can't complain obviously.
Its crazy to think that black's wouldn't own anything there though
Precisely why im keeping my property in newark. I want that cac money
Not going hate on section 8 housing on the beach.....but I see what your saying and my urban planning beef with Moses is when he prevented a subway connection across the Verazanno Bridge when they were proposing it...the beaches of Staten Island would look like what you are describing I think...it would be more connected to the rest of the city and region.....
I was reading up on him.....and he got a lot of his power b/se he was in charge of one of those bridge between Queens and the Bronx that became a toll bridge and raking in big bucks....so much so that he was providing funding for other NYC infrastructure projects at the time....with that said.....he did put in some good thoroughfares for the city...
Rockaway is the nicest beach in NY Idgaf what any1 says...but it does get shytty the further u go down on the boardwalk...beach 127th is a nicer part of town...I go to 135th ill b there on Saturday drinkin come holler at a breh, breh
