Posted by Wayne-MrSlantR40 on Sat Jul 31 22:07:36 2010, in response to Re: The South Bronx of the 1980's, posted by W Broadway Local on Sat Jul 31 19:51:45 2010. Nothing even remotely resembling what happened in the Bronx. Even the most blighted areas of ENY and Brownsville have rebounded. As for the Bronx - there are still problem areas - for example, several rows of stores have burned down along the #2/5 corridor. But these sores have not been allowed to fester. New buildings go up as soon as the old ones burn down. Not so back in the 70's and 80's.One of the clips shows Longfellow Avenue just south of the Cross Bronx Expressway. Those buildings are STILL standing. Not burned out - fully occupied. And no mounds of garbage in the streets either. wayne |
