The Heart of St. Marks is a doc on gentrification in the East Village / Lower East Side Of NYC starring Jimmy of the punk holdout of Trash and Vaudville. Very funny, DON'T FORGET TO WATCH PART 2! Too long for 1 youtube file. Thanks, Sam

  • Who is this loser girl with the buzzcut, acting like she's someone. "I mean we're movin' in here," "yeah it's changed a lot" meanwhile her and her hippie boyfriend are the exact type of hipster yuppie transplant who are doing the gentrifying. The $64000 question is, where the hell do people like them get all the money to pay that rent? They don't even look like they have jobs. I'll never understand these people.

    Talking down on $5 milkshakes, how about your sky-high rent??
