Bushwick, Brooklyn, NYC in 2015

[BoogieDown23]

Don't these cacs know that they are making new york wack?



So them having bragging rights of being able to say that they are from new york(in this case brooklyn) is gonna make it lose its luster?


These cacs are sabotaging themselves and they dont even know it

 

[Spatial Paradox]

Street signs say Amsterdam Avenue and St. Nicholas Avenue. Those streets don't exist in Brooklyn. That's an intersection in the Heights

Funny skit though. Northern Brooklyn is pretty much a done deal in terms of gentrification

man why they doing this.

I've been seeing a couple whites jogging around 155th and 168th recently. And I mean deep into the hood. Not them apartments by the West Side Highway.

Yeah, North Brooklyn is finished. Williamsburg, Ft. Greene, Bushwick, Greenpoint, Park Slope, pretty much gentrified to the point of no return. Williamsurg doesn't even feel like a real neighborhood anymore.

Crown Heights, Bed-Stuy, Prospect Park, Bay Ridge, are next in line...they're moving further down south into
Brooklyn...little by little.

Ridgewood is on it's way...simply because of the way it borders Bushwick. Queens...seems like it's on it's way to becoming the next victim of gentrification. Already hear about hipsters in astoria.

Bay Ridge is wayyyyy down there. These whites are trying to get the easy commute. It would take over 30 minutes on the train to get down there.

I'd like to see how easy it would be for these cacs to venture into Brownsville, ENY, or Canarsie.

Foreal my nikka. It's getting to the point where you can't even tell some neighborhoods apart anymore. They take the character out of the neighborhoods.Its funny because all trustfund hipsters dress EXACTLY alike even though they think they are being subversive

Hoods used to distinct have a feel to them. Bushwick used to feel like Bushwick. The Stuy used to feel like the Stuy, and so on and son. But these cacs are bringing their stale, diluted, cultureless swag here and infesting the city, all in the hope of being a labeled a New Yorker, while taking the originality and character out of neighborhoods.

You're lucky though, it hasn't been as bad in the BX as it is in BK. Because a lot of the nightlife is in Lower Manhattan and BK, so they wanna be here.
But BK as a whole is now

classic tho

To be fair Marcy is still sh*t from what I remember

Man the truth. I been coming to my neighborhood now, to chill since I was younger. Im talking when I was living in Brownsville and Crown Heights, I was coming to the slope to chill around 06-08 to fukk girls and play ball. This shyt is terrible now. It doesn't even feel the same breh. It's losing is diversity day by day because these trustfund cacs are infesting the place. The last few years have seen a surplus of cacs come here. More than I've ever seen it. The Slope was predominately hispanic at one point too.

Williamsburg is finito. Greenpoint too.

The Ridge is up next, and the Stuy has definitely already started.

Yeah, you're right, they're trying to get to the city on the train in a quick bit....but I have been hearing people (young, white 20 something transplants) talk about Bay Ridge and their "adventures" down there. As if it was some rare discovery.

And there was an article on some website about how realtors were offering $900 a month 1 bedrooms in Brownsville and ENY....

TBH, seeing as how no one bothers these cac hipsters in this neighborhood, I just have a bad feeling they'll be very little problems for them trying to venture through. It just seems like black people seem to have no problem getting aggy with other blacks and leave whites alone...it's on some type shyt. No wonder these neighborhoods get gentrified so fast...

going back to what you said about "why are they doing this?"

I've been following this guy's blog for a while...he says that this is now hyper-gentrification and it's revanchist in nature...

revanche- french for "revenge"

he implies white people with money are reclaiming the neighborhoods their families used to inhabit from poor black and spanish people.\

Hell, at this point they're pricing out white residents too that have lived here for ages..

Brooklyn, How did you let this happen?

[jadillac]

you know what's gonna happen right?

Gentrification will continue and in about 20-30 years NYC will lose all of it's cultural richness & diversity that makes it a cool place currently, the white people there will get bored and bolt en mass.
