I been saying this. I drive through there on weekdays and see white folks jogging, frolicking and shyt like that's not a grimy neighborhood. They walk around there like they the captain now.
I think Little Haiti doesn't need to be gentrified any further, unless it's to the benefit of the residents. There are enough record shops, and lounges, and stuff like Churchills that gives Little Haiti activities beyond just your typical "Haitian Church/Botanic/Pawn Shop" variety. Anymore gentrification, and it won't be Little Haiti anymore. It needs to all be Haitian based gentrification. They're trying to put a Food-hall in Little Haiti. I hope Black folks can keep Liberty City, and fix it up and market it to Blacks around the metro area. Same with Opa-Locka and the rest of Northwest Miami-Dade. Northwest Miami is the next frontier. Most of Northeast Miami is built up already, but there's so many empty lots, "urban-prairies" and areas of poverty in Northwest Miami that artist, hipster, developers, etc, are licking their chops. There's nothing wrong with sprucing up those areas and making them entertainment districts, but when Blacks start getting displaced, than that's not cool.
