Went for drinks after work yesterday and a friend of a coworker from Michigan asked me do I prefer Old Town or New Town? I’m like wtf is New Town? :dwillhuh:

They were like New Town, the neighborhood.:leostare:

I was like bro, there is no New Town. :usure:

He was like I assure you that there is. It’s right next to Old Town:youngsabo:

I told this new nikka that I grew up here and that it wasn’t. I live in LP on the northern border of Old Town, and the Gold Coast and RiNo neighborhoods border the south.:camby:

He was like aight, playa.:whoa:

This shyt bothered me because I was like why would he pull that out his ass? I went to do a little research and do you know, realtors are renaming the Cabrini area New Town? :mindblown:

Them new white folks ain’t trying to tell people they live in Cabrini, yet ain’t have no problem gentrifying that shyt. :why:

Realtors slick as fuk the way they rename neighborhoods to sell properties. They call parts of Little Village “West Pilsen”

That has me mad too. I remember that used to be baseball fields for the kids. Now it's some luxury shopping nonsense.

Just creating neighborhoods out if thin air...
