BK
White people are moving in any building that goes up in the Stuy. It's sad as hell. Whenever I see those "residential construction LLC" signs on A lot or abandoned building, I already know what's sup... The building owners are only looking for white tenants. It's just way too many white people in my area for my liking. They walk through the hood like it's all good. :mjcry:

And in my area it's so easy to get to Manhattan, Queens and the BX using the train, so it's a gold mine for Cacs.

That's why I left. I can't stand what BK is becoming. I hate it actually. My Old neighborhoods being infested with The Stuy is next up.

Don't get locked up though :whoa:
The amount of homeless black people and just black people begging for change I see out here is disturbing.

I'm moving out in two years time. I'm sick of seeing it and I'm sick of seeing these bougie racist hipster crackers everywhere.
Nah I ain't boutta turn shyt up in this typa environment , I know if I show one sign of aggression it's over for me . The :birdman: is my default expression and you could tell by my wardrobe & demeanor I'm a BX nikka , If you see the look on their faces right now fam :russ: a couple crossed to the other side of the street as soon as me and my boy got on the same side for obvious reasons . They wanted to leave their vague ass surroundings for NYC then when native NYC nikkas come on the scene they get petro :camby:

The racism in new York (the economic type predominantly) is disgusting.

Every time I see a fancy shmancy new apartment building here in a neighborhood next to run down row house it's definitely on some :mjpls: shyt.

They might as well put a sign on them that says "whites only".

Breh, Williamsburg has been hipster ground zero for all of the 2000's.

Did you recently get out of jail?

BKN is becoming a hipster version of Europe. If you like models and women that do yoga thats your spot. Plenty of bar hopping and great food and lots of events every day of the week. If you are single and have some money in pocket go there and eat!
Old New York is becoming New Amsterdam.

How much of it is there to enjoy when the natives that made this place can't enjoy it?

Doomberg was right on the money when he said he was trying to turn NYC into a luxury city
East fukking NY tho... Not a fukking cac in sight every time I come thru :blessed: :mjcry:
Hate to break it to you breh...but I had to do some work for my job out in east ny this week and they are here.

I saw some 40 something hipster white lady asking me if she could catch the L train from east new York ave...I told her it's just ahead of her but she could catch it from Broadway junction by taking the Alabama Ave J train.

As soon as she heard Broadway junction she was just like...:merchant::skip:"nah that's alright ill walk there."

Most of Brooklyn is just becoming an extension of Downtown Manhattan.

There is no space left downtown, so they are all pushing towards Brooklyn as the next logical step.

Those same people are also moving into Harlem and Washington Heights quickly, with Inwood not too far behind. It's crazy the amount of change I see every single time I go up there.

I'll give you guys a quick example out of that 168th street station...

You had a "Banco Popular" out there, which has been replaced by a "Bank of America"

"Johns Fried Chicken" and "Crown Fried Chicken" had to go, "Popeye's" is in there now

Chipotle and Starbucks have moved into Washington Heights

MetroPCS and small cell phone shops recently had to move out of spots, what pops up? Sprint and T-Mobile and I think the Verizon store is still out there.

"Bravo" Supermarket I think closed up last time I checked, I expect a Kroger/Target or something similar out there in no time.

I would assume some one of those bodeges anywhere from 168th-179th street will be replaced with a 7-11 soon. I can't even imagine what the bus terminal off the GW Bridge is going to look like once its finally cleaned up and ready to move in.

A couple of local pizza shops closed up, Lil Caesars, Dominos, and Papa Johns all have locations in the heights now.

The entire landscape of Manhattan and Brooklyn is changing rapidly. it almost feels like a different neighborhood from what I grew up in, but I am in my 30's now :manny:
