If those are its actual colors, it looks uglier than the car in front.
How is 3k for a studio in the Bronx affordable? Seems very much high market rate to me..
Stop lieing you know those apartment are not aforeable new York connect if I had an income what you’re asking for it would be in a nice neighborhood.
The reason is because in the 1970’s The Bronx was deliberately turned into a poor borough in the South and the West. So now 40 to 50 years later the attempt is to bring balance by bringing higher incomes. People forget that when the Bronx was first developed it was for working and middle class families tired of Manhattan tenements to get a bigger and more modern apartment. This is just an attempt to bring back balance
The use of the word “deliberately” suggests some sort of municipal conspiracy to sink the Bronx. No such thing happened. Development of the NE Bronx including Co-op City and the desire of long term middle class residents to move on up and out is what happened to those neighborhoods. There is also a notion out there that NYCHA targeted the South Bronx in some way and accelerated it’s decline but I’ve seen no evidence that is true at all. And as disastrous as the Cross Bronx Expwy was, it too cannot singlehandedly explain the area’s 1960s+ decline.
How wide is that bathroom door? 18″?
