I think this is gonna happen all over the country.@Poitier said it a while ago. NYC is going to become the rich, upscale, gated community of the US.
shyt's gonna be like 90% white and asian.
I honestly think they'll just keep those project buildings and just re purpose them into luxury condos. Those buildings have prime views of the city...especially in Manhattan.Basically, I live on the south side of town and them cacs movin up Penn Ave, Minnesota Ave, Branch Ave...I see a lady jogging at night down MLK, by that school by Anacostia station.
NYC is no different, soon they'll start tearing down PJs and put up condos that'll price out most of the original resisdents. I think I saw an article a while back saying they doing this nation wide to a lot of inner city project housing...
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 sometype shyt. No wonder these neighborhoods get gentrified so fast...
I think this is gonna happen all over the country.
America is going to be a banana republic.
Rich people living in overpopulated megacities.
The suburbs and rural areas are going to be hell for EVERYONE.
That Atlanta thread has me somewhat optimistic that maybe that city, or even that entire state of Georgia, may became a true "safe haven" for black folks. Because everywhere else is finished.

this was forecast since the early 90's....we had plenty of time to buy land/property.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.
Hotels aren't a problem, Overpriced, Million Dollar Condos are. Hotels are whatever.He's right actually. I saw a hotel recently finished building around Willis Ave bridge by 138th. That was a month ago. It's already starting in Bx now.
It already is happening. A lot of the basis for gentrification is racial too...but the class element is nothing to be ignored. I've been paying way too much attention to what's going on. Black and Spanish people being displaced into the burbs and crime going up there...then whites move to the cities and magically they get better as the burbs get worse.I think this is gonna happen all over the country.

This ain't Biggie’s Bed-Stuy: A trip to rapper’s old block after childhood home hits the market for $725,000
Rapper Biggie Smalls may have idolized his old neighborhood in his tunes, but these days Clinton Hill isn’t loving him back.
A Sotheby’s outpost in Park Slope recently put the iconic entertainer’s childhood apartment on the market with an asking price of $725,000, naming “historic Clinton Hill” as one of the flat’s many selling points — without one word about Notorious B.I.G.
“It’s not a historic museum,” sniffed broker Judith Lief, scoffing at any mention tying 226 St. James Pl., #3L to Biggie.
Take over neighborhoods and refuse to acknowledge its legends, brehs.
