My question is...
Why did it take "gentrification" to make these neighborhoods "better"?

To me..that is an insult..to the 10th degree.

For years ..these neighborhoods got "Blacklisted" by bankers..developers..fostering BLIGHT upon BLIGHT..removing VITAL LINKS in transportation..super markets going under...building and homes allowed to ROT...with NO BAILOUTS in sight...PROPERTY VALUES PURPOSELY DRIVEN DOWN...

Now..with MANHATTAN out of reach of most of the "yuppies hipsters"..Urban Pioneers venture into the "Ghetto"..buy property..[How did they do this is the bank holds the property and keeps it off the market...?]Live there for awhile..then sell it, driving up the cost of ownership.

Now some property owner wont even sell or rent to "neighborhood folks"..only to the up and coming "Venture Brothers"..

This out and out SUCKS ASS ROYALLY!
