It was a quaint town many years ago. Famous for two very bloody civil war battles. Old Town Manassas has some beautiful homes. The country stores are now gone, the drive in movie theater is long gone. Was once full of country folk and now not so much. There was a Large Latino influx adding some variety to the mix. Been there since 1981.

I lived at 335 East Cener Street around 1964-66. I loved being a kid there. My first job was working at the 'Manassas Market at age twelve. Larry and dGus owned the little stor and treated me well. I think their last name was either Bellitistus or Velastesis. I had so many great times and great friends. Danny Cook, Jimmy Hall, Larry Dameron, Randy Lillicotch to name just a few. Those were the true 'good old days' for many of us and it was a cleaner, fresher time in America back then. There were a few bad times too, but i was a thirteen year old when we moved from the coal camps of Southwestern Virginia and to me it was a big city. I recall we paid 125. a month rent for that big beautiful house. Clark Nalls would collect the rent every month, and he was a good guy. Later i would date his daughter Teri. So many great memories for a nearly 70 year old man. It was a great place then, and that will never be the same i am afraid. Thanks for the video. I am subscribing now.

Two Loudoun Firefighters Are Accused of Rape By Josh White August 31, 2000 Prince William County police arrested a career Loudoun County firefighter and a career firefighter recruit Monday after a 20-year-old woman accused them of raping her early Sunday morning, police said. Both men also are active members in two separate volunteer fire departments in Prince William. Police said Tuesday that the woman--who was a friend of her alleged attackers--was drinking with the men at a party Saturday night before going to one of the suspects' homes just north of Manassas Park. Police spokesman Dennis Mangan said the woman called police about 4 a.m. Sunday to report that both men had raped her. Conan Rowe Kelley, 27, and Kenniston Todd Aime, 26, both of Yorkshire, have been charged with rape and forcible sodomy. They were being held without bond yesterday in the Prince William County jail, awaiting a bond hearing. ADVERTISING Their attorney, Edward J. Regan, of Fairfax, did not return telephone calls this week. Loudoun County fire officials said both men have been placed on administrative leave with pay while an internal investigation is conducted. Mary Maguire, spokeswoman for Loudoun County Fire and Rescue Services, said that Aime is a driver engineer who has been with the department a little more than a year, and that Kelley is a member of the department's current class for firefighter/emergency medical technician recruits. Kelley started in June and was scheduled to graduate to full status in October. Aime was not assigned to a particular squad but worked where he was needed. Mangan said that the two men and the woman were celebrating Kelley's birthday, which was Friday, with a group of friends and that they ended up at Kelley's home on Newton Place, near Yorkshire Elementary School. The attack occurred a few hours after they arrived at the home, Mangan said. According to a criminal complaint filed in Prince William County General District Court, the alleged victim "became extremely intoxicated and passed out" in Kelley's home about 2 a.m. Sunday. When she awoke shortly before 4 a.m., according to the complaint, Aime was raping her and Kelley was sitting on the bed next to her, naked. The Washington Post generally does not name the victims of sex-related crimes. Kelley told police that he had sex with the victim at least twice and sodomized her and that "after he was done, [Aime] came upstairs and did the same thing," according to the complaint. "It was all against her will," Mangan said. "She knew them, but she wasn't dating either of them." According to a search warrant affidavit filed in Prince William County Circuit Court, the victim ran from the home, leaving behind her underwear and shoes. She immediately called police and went to Potomac Hospital for treatment. According to court documents, a hospital examination showed evidence consistent with rape. Craig Griffith, chief of the Yorkshire Volunteer Fire Department, said Tuesday he did not know details of the alleged attack and could not comment. Griffith said that Kelley is an active member of his department and that Aime used to volunteer there. Prince William police said Aime now volunteers at the Coles District Volunteer Fire Department. "All I know at this point is that whatever party there was, it was nothing connected with the Fire Department," Griffith said. Staff writer Maria Glod contributed to this report.

Manassas is ghetto AF

[@jbo4547]

Its really not. Every place has "ghetto" areas as well.

@@jbo4547 it really is I used to live in manassas.. ok ok most part of manassas is ghetto AF with the worst driver's

[@wendydwyer5385]

It's ghetto. I live here. It's not nice like it used to be.

[@jbo4547]

@@wendydwyer5385 i live in Manassas as well. And its not ghetto. Compared to parts of Alexandria that I used to live in its great. Of course there are shittier areas than others but I wouldn't consider all of Manassas ghetto at all. A lot of the drivers suck, I agree, but thats all of Nova. Especially the loud ass cars that have been around lately with their stupid meetups
