THE OLD FAR ROCKAWAY VS THE NEW FAR ROCKAWAY "GENTRIFICATION"

[@KiNGRaZoR316]

Ppl complain about gentrification, but, refuse to change the negative behavior and create a unified community.

[@tywins7893]

Yeah they tryna clean up the streets. I jus moved into a new building over there. All I see is druggies and shit! But it’s never the area, it’s the ppl that need to change

[@muhamedjones122]

It's the people that needs to change yes.

I was born in Far Rockaway 52 years ago. It was a lot lighter when me and my brothers Puerto Ricans on Beach 59, Mott Ave, Beach 19. We went the schools there, my older brother was one of the first students at Brian Piccolo I S 53. My other older brother went to both Far Rock & Beach Channel High School, the oldest played basketball for Far Rock. Believe me we saw it change before our eyes.

I was born in Far Rockaway!

[@MelRicanDePonce]

As born and raised last lived in Far Rock 1986, it did not look like you know.

[@rgw1380rw]

My grandmother used to work for Rockaway Home Attendant Services when it was located at 20-11 Mott Avenue. It's a bit odd to see the new development where the shopping center used to be.

[@Rebelofhiphop]
