What he said still exists. The Bronx has come a long way from what it used to be like in the 70's, 80's, & 90's, but the crime & gang violence here is still high, especially in the same places; The South Bronx. & even certain parts in the north side. I used to live in Morrisania & Fordham Heights-like 2 blocks from Poe Cottage. I stayed there for almost 20 years alltogether. But regardless, he's right. The Bronx still is the best borough ever, & you really don't have to leave The Bronx to do the same things that you can do in Manhattan & Brooklyn. It's all here!

Having grown up in the Bronx in the 60's and 70's I saw the last hurrah from the growth from the 30's all the way to the early 60's What happened was Robert Moses, deindustrialization and white flight to the suburbs. These conditions plus globalization contributed to the fall of not only the South Bronx but also Bedford-Stuyvesant, Astoria, Long Island City, Times Square, Washington Heights and Harlem. Not to mention this occurred in cities all over the United States. Cities found themselves in financial trouble and the political power shifted from cities to suburbs; south to north; liberal to conservative and Democratic to Republican. Cities were then remade in the image of the neoliberal technocrats, leaving many middle class and poor families behind. Gentrification and overdevelopment of housing in certain areas are changing the demographics and economics of the borough to something that I no longer recognize nor do I think it beneficial to the long term interests of Bronxites.

The first part was amazing, but this is just as good. I knew Shawn did a good job showing Tal around his borough, but he definitely did a better job showing you around. I always passed through Pelhan Bay Park to go to City Island and Westchester County, but never had time to go. The park looks awesome and I'm ready to chow down on some beef patties and oxtail. The best thing I loved about these videos is the amount of pride Shawn has in his borough. My dad grew up in the South Bronx decades back and of course the area wasn't the best, but I see the borough nowadays as a smaller version of Queens due to the strong Ethnic diversity (Italians, Dominicans, Jamaicans, Mexicans, etc), vast amount of parks (Pelham Bay, Crotona, Van Cortlandt, Barreto Point), and overall history of the borough, especially with music (salsa and hip hop). Badass video you guys!

The Bronx was always a great place to live. You have the Bronx zoo . The botanical garden. Fordam university. Great delicatessen and other restaurants. I grew up in the bronx from the 50’s to the late 60’s . There was orchard beach, Pelham bay, vancortland park , city island with the best seafood. It changed during the 70’ s . It got kinder rough. Over the last 30 years it has become much cleaner and nicer.

I grew up in a city that bordered The Bronx and can remember certain areas of The Bronx that were very dangerous in the 1950's, 60's and 70's. At age twelve I remember being taught how to make a .22 caliber "zip gun" pistol by some Bronx friends (pipe, nail and rubber band). Also how to sharpen the buckles on what they called "garrison belts" to inflict major harm to others. Since I didn't live in The Bronx I didn't need to take advantage of either of those survival skills. In the 1980's the south Bronx was akin to a war zone. But even back in those days there were areas of The Bronx that were relatively safe. I haven't lived in New York in decades. Are there still areas that you would not venture into?
