@lilfreeway21 it can vary. some start at $1250 for a studio $1800 for a one bedroom $2300 for 2 bedroom and $4500 for a 3 bedroom. e-mail me at tee.harris_16@msn.com for more information
Wow, NYC is so cleaned up now compared to than it used to be. These projects dont even look bad. Go to a 3rd world country if you wanna see a real slum.
@nycolombian91 I've lived in the streets of soyapango, san salvador. Thats a real hood. Harlem or any hood in America might be ghetto but there arent real slums in this country. Like disneyland compared to the 3rd world.
What up! This video has just made me reminisce 'bout some good old times in New York. I'm from Russia originally, born and raised but I spent a few years living in Brooklyn, Bensonhurst, the D line, just three subway stations away from Coney Island. And I used to hang out in Harlem as one of my homies lived there (Lexington Ave and 110th Str). Now I miss the 5ive boroughs madly, it's like a sort of homesickness mixed with nostalgia. Can't wait to come back soon! The vid is straight! Thanks!
That's what's up! This video has just made me reminisce 'bout some good old times! Actually I'm originally from Russia, but used to live in Brooklyn, Bensonhurst, the D line, just three subway stations away from Coney Island. Meanwhile I spent a lot of time in Harlem as one of my homies lived there (Lexington ave. and 110th str.). The video is straight ! Thanks!
you'd be very surprised how much London looks like New York! its pretty much the same thing! except what you call The Projects, we call Council Estates.. youtube London council estates you'll know what i mean!
@Esewithattitiude me too thats why i hate when people argue on youtube about who lives in the worse place, London is as bad as New York so they shouldn't be arguing about it! Places like Kentish Town has been given crime rates worse than The Bronx! same with Peckham and Harlem.. so yeah there very similar!
@Esewithattitiude yeah it is! alot of Americans would be so shocked if they knew the real England! most people who don't live in England still stereotype it the same way with the drinking tea and being up the queens ass, when the reality is very far from that!
@nycolombian91 they're more alike than people think! for a start the Council Estates in London are practically the same as the ones in the Bronx, like I said youtube or google London Council Estates and you'll see for yourself, the lack of jobs, crime rates and poverty is very similar too! I mean look at the riots in the UK over the past week, the people weren't rioting for nothing...
Polo Grounds Projects, My old stomping grounds. Man,,,,Rucker Games, handball, paddel ball, and playing old school games in the hallway steps. Yea... : )
The idea for the housing project came from an experiment tested on rats. The rats all went crazy after a few months and attacked and killed each other. Sound familiar?
In fact, every animal tested went crazy or was very off-balance. Public schools started out as a project also.
I saw several buildings in your video that are not a part of NYCHA! For instance Lenox Terrace buildings have really nice apartments, doctor offices, and doormen (I'm not talking toy cops). Do your research first before calling ordinary buildings the projects.
this is just sad...i live in Buffalo NY...its a city not in NYC. but ive been to Alanta GA and rode subways and its pretty...ghetto but...this is just sad. its tooi dangerous...i pray it gets better.
Its a shame that no matter how bad the projects get New York is too cheap and lazy to tear um down.The city would be such a much better place to live.Chicago and New Orleans are cleaning up beautifully.But here.You come to New York now leave and come back 10 years from now the buildings will still be standing there. Uhh living in New York is sad.
@greatest2005 Chicago had just like 20 developments , new orleans just a few and they were even low rise houses.
NYC is full of high rise projects right now like 350 developments , so if you tear them down where should all those people live then? there is no space to build new small town houses , one high rise building would make up like 30 houses cant work out here
@Gryphus89 Ive always though about that also since i live her in New York.But something that the city could do is give evryone 2 year period thats more than enough time to prepare them to leave.But since the city is so broke and stupid it wont happen.It can all work out in time.
@Gryphus89 More than"20" we have a shitload more with a city half your size so when they tore them down we got fucked real bad.....it didnt work here either.....for every project you name in ny i bet i could damn near name a development to match it in chicago
The hood that i was born and raise for my first 11 years of my life is way worst,the mountain shacks in the east of Venezuela i appreciate every thing that my ma and pa did to bring us here even if im broke ass hell still!!
fuck america, ugly ass street and ugly town ,yea fuck the rednec kkk s they now how to stomp on poor pipel,im glad im not from there ,but musik is cool
The buildings themselves looks alright, it's just that when you get very poor and desperate people into them, crime floods in and the neighborhood gets worse.
Well, I guess the nastiest things happen in the inside. The architecture doesn't really seem that bad and the environment doesn't feel oppressive. Down here in Colombia, this would be a normal mid class place to live in.
to me they look like regular building but man when you go inside it's a whole different world it's crazy. I'm white and have to fucking worry about going to a certain area in COney Island or in manhattan, pisses me off i hate carrying weapons, Brass knuckles at times for a quick gateaway, that's why i want to become a cop. So at least have a pension and die for a good cause.
BIG and TALL - yes, indeed. On the inside, however, they are (mostly) cramped units, no matter how many bedrooms/bathrooms are in each unit. Many people who grew up in these would come from big families, from what I heard on TV and radio at one point. New York may be the only city in the US or North America where the majority of projects are still in use as of 2010.
All you dumb mothafuckas. You have no idea what it's like growin up in public housing. It's not that they don't care about work. They can't work. No education. Most of us came from outside the US. majority didn't even have a chance.
u know i'm from London but I have to say that from the outside some of your housing projects look nice, I mean the architecture. they're bright red not grey and depressing like ours.
search for Heygate Estate or Stonebridge Estate in London to see the horrible grey 1960's prisons our government thought it was a good idea to house people in. luckily both these estates are being demolished and rebuilt to make them better places to live.
there are no ghettos in the USA west point liberia the slums of mumbai indonesia how can you even compare these places we got it so good here in the usa
Come to africa and there hoods is real comparing to harlem circus gangsters. But Africa is struggling to get to the good life in positive way like education.
i know right? & u coward ass crackas who dont even speak "proper" english & get on a computer & get BOLD to say somethin u KNOW in life u would NEVA say in person is a SHAME how u call yoself a "man"?
im telling you look it up or something. eastern europe is considered mostly a collection of 3rd world countries. i didnt use to know that either til someone put me on. i thought all of europe was like england and shit. 3rd world countries=extreme poverty.
@Gryphus89 dats da SAME video they showed on pbs da otha night! & gyeah dats in da COUNTRYSIDE(but they call dat shit somethin else cant rememba) but da "city" AINT like dat
@Gryphus89 naw NO slums they just showed a documentary on da "economic woes" in eastern europe on pbs da otha night & they was showin how in da "rural" areas there is poverty stricken areas but in city cores there is NO "slums" per se` idk what u heard but i aint NEVA seen none shit i be on them eastern europe videos on youtube & them AINT no "slums" "ghettoes" or "hoods" it look just like this video here to be honest but da only difference is its white ppl instead of us niggaz
could they have added another color besides brown......so fuckin drab. in the hoods here in miami they add these bright colors. makes it so much more pleasant to the eye.
@ghostgrabber and bro new yorkers are all fighters, even if in safe neighborhoods, you give people just a dirty look their coming after you, at least out of nyc the 5 boroughs which has madd neighborhodds in them i say theirs at least 4-5 neighborhoods left that are safe.
yo stop yall complain we all new yorkers. you all sound like pussys, We are known for being tough as fuck people but you are all complaning. and i mean compared to what it was then and what it is now new york aint as bad as it use to be i mean we went from like 1,000 muders a year to like 500, but dat don't mean da crime and ghettos aint gone. most of da city beside midtown manhattan, still looks like a shit whole and yes i still be hear drive bys at night and people get shot near my house
@sk8er4lif3777 over 2,00 homocides....i cant tell you too are a kid, you werent alive for when this city was thorough, you young kids these days are fuckin soft.
real nyc hip hop is still out there , check my uploads , and check artists like St.Laz , Shabazz the Disciple , Reks , and its way way more real shit.
Yo, it's here, we need your support tho. I'm a New York artist and I'm never gonna sell out to the mainstream media, so if your starving for real shit, check L.Vijalanti, trust me you won't be dissapointed.
This may sound like a dumb question but how does public housing work in the states? is it owned privately and then the owner gets government subsidies or is the entire complex owned by the city or state?
its owned by the state and they subsidize it or it cant be owned by a landlord which is section 8 approved u pay 30 percent of ur income the government pays the rest
NYC wuz ruff in 70s 80s and also in early 90s...things change isnt ruff anymore like it was...80s'' south bronx looked like third world..erything ruined..but..now you got ruff places in philly detroit jersey..indiana gary,baltimore.east st louis thiz towns and they almost look like bronx in the 80s.NOT EXACTLY but preety the same some areas...and oh yeah...NY RAP!..nowadays in 00s is wack as fuck..it dont got dat NY touch no more..rappers from NY makin dat southern bull...fuckd up
yes i know..but anyway...im listenin alot on NY rap..matta fact the whole eastcoast is mad...most of underground scene in ny is from QB..you got few cats from there that are keepin it real and all dat...but def..NY rap aint what it used to be ''grimmy & gritty''...its all about bling bling era nowadays
well yeah that commercial rappers. yeah ppl in QB holding it down but , check songs like , St.Laz - Starve the ghetto , or A Fella - new year , K-Gutta - Can't help it .. I could name you way way more just a little taste , this dudes just arent known that much but spittin fire and from around the whole city. but too many ppl listen to the radio crap and thats what you call bling bling too bad but true , they real rap is mosty unknown.
word will check dat out...yea its sad..its crazy how dat southern crank bull..affectin the US..fuck..back then...south was aight..in the 90s was like..half rappers from south were makin eastcoast reconizable music'' and half of them kinda westcoast..it was mixed up somehow..for example..geto boys..damn they were dope...they were not typical westcoast g funk blabbn gangsta shit..they were unique..with also sum political theme..etc..
word , the southern rap just destroys our hip hop.... look at soulja boy faggot or all this other crappy stuff to dance to with some brainless none sense rymed lyrics.... or lil wayne that faggot ... can't believe that there are ppl out there claiming best rapper alive with his baby face and voice lollypop crapshit for girls ... but this fags get the money for some reason... and the real shit out of the hoods gets nothing , thats why too many rappers go commercial to get the money. sad
yes times are changin..:S..90s was the best..almost erything was in the place...nice locked..and nowadays dis commercial bull spreadin lika virus..i think internet got here alotta guilt also...and dis globalization..
naw nigga dont say "southern" rap u SINGLE mufuckas out dont blanket statement da WHOLE SOUTH nigga cuh MOST of us DONT listen to dat LAME ass shit listen to T-ROCk - SOUTH ATLANTA(REAL SOUTH HIP HOP)
@FreakyLGrimeeRappuh its not a matter of est or wst its a matter of ignorance mixed with corporate greed...and it makes modern day hip-hop....main stream hip-hop is dead
shit guys I live across the world in Italy but also from us and so I would be happy but you definitely another world and new friends ... everywhere and hard fuckin life ... if you do not have money do not do shit and I do the streets and I kick ass for a bit of cash ... respect ...
I remember someone who lived in America in the 60s and referring to the word HOUSING PROJECTS, as if it was a illness. To some it must be or might be, but i would say its in there head. Others would have you thinking that all americans should be living in a JR Uwing type house or do. And dose on this think they should also. JR and that way of living in the big house is a bollock-s.
sure? I didn't knew that harlem is so large, or have you took more than 1 pic of a building of a house in a different view? or is every pic one house/block?
CAN SUMONE PLZ HELP ME, how wud i go about gettin a place at one of dem public housin buildins????? i rlly needa kno

This may sound like a dumb question but how does public housing work in the states? is it owned privately and then the owner gets government subsidies or is the entire complex owned by the city or state?
mat4mckay 2 years ago
most of the public housing is owned by the ciy itselt , called New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA)
Gryphus89 2 years ago

I remember someone who lived in America in the 60s and referring to the word HOUSING PROJECTS, as if it was a illness. To some it must be or might be, but i would say its in there head. Others would have you thinking that all americans should be living in a JR Uwing type house or do. And dose on this think they should also. JR and that way of living in the big house is a bollock-s.
