Love it. I grew up there 1963 to 1979 and passed that moved just a few blocks up to 40th Ave and 24th St til 1992. I am now 61 watching you from Las Vegas NV. I was one of the mid 70s deejays from Ultra Sounds Disco. Big influences and mentors were Dr Bob Lee, Jap and Brucie, Phase Brothers, Disco Twins, the pioneers just before the birth of Hip Hop. Worked across the river on Roosevelt for 20 years til 2010 then moved here. Yes. QB was rough but it was a place where I remember the most love among the inhbitants, and to date I still have not seen that anywhere else and I will miss it and always remember it. Thanks for posting. Love to all who watch it and read these comments. - D.J. Captain Kurt

I am a New York native, born and raised in Brooklyn, NY. I worked with someone from Queens, and one day we got into a conversation about Queensbridge. His words, almost verbatim, were, "It could be the sunniest day outside in the middle of the summer, but in Queensbridge it will still feel dark." @1:35, the guy says "But sometimes, you know, as me and my friends grow up and a lot of things happened, sad to say... it feels like there is a dark cloud in this project". Also, I lived in LeFrak (Queens) and worked in Brooklyn for a few years ago. When I took the F train home, the 21st Street-Queensbridge stop was more often than not wild.

As a young African American male myself , this is what I'm talkin about . Our communities are really just a series of different families and friends ! So like most families, there will always be disagreements/fights . But once the sun goes down and rises the next day , its all love ; we move on . I will never condone the selling of drugs and violence amongst each other , but at least we survive. At the same time folks should remember these drugs & guns certainly came from somewhere . . and it did a number on our communities (sadly) . I believe that was done on purpose as a way to ruin the Black household ! So when other races come to America with a notion about Black folks that is negative or stereotypical , at least take time to find out who we really are ! Everything happens for a reason man . We come outside and stand together to talk , laugh and watch the younger kids play double Dutch ! One guy asks how another guy's mother is doing after her surgery . We may laugh at one guy for getting rejected by the beautiful girl in the neighborhood ! Another group of fellas are debating over which basketball team has a good chance of going to the finals . . . All of this happening under the sun . It's called culture !! And videos like this offer a brief glimpse into a day in the life of a young Black brother/sister . . Its all Love ! So the next time people attempt to point and assume these brothas are up to no good , just know that they're out here trying to survive like you ! Have a blessed day 🙏🏽 .

5 of my cousins were raised in Queensbridge, 4 were raised in Ravenswood. Their parents worried about their children going and coming to school, work, friends, the stores. None of them had cars..public transportation only. My mom and her childhood family moved into Queensbridge in 1939, the year it opened. As you know, it has 6 floors. In an effort to decrease building costs, the elevator only stopped at the first, third, and fifth floors. They lived on the fourth floor, so they had the choice of getting off on the third floor and walking up one flight of stairs or getting off on the fifth floor and walking down one floor. The newly formed NYCHA didn’t allow new residents a choice, including disabled residents. One the heels of the Great Depression, the apartments filled up as soon as they were finished. For many, these apartments provided heat, “real bathrooms”, hot water, a new kitchen with a couple of cabinets, a window, gas stove, oven, and 1930’s style sink. A “state of the art” nursery school was established within the community, complete with care for sick children whose families couldn’t afford a doctor. The centrally located community center had a solid wood floor (it probably still does). It served as a roller skating rink, an auditorium for community events, community meetings, free (basic, health and dental services. It was a link to community activities. My mom’s older sister continued to live in Queensbridge and raised her 5 children, in the standard 2 bedroom apartments. My mom’s younger sister moved to Ravenswood and raised her 4 daughters there. I was raised in a small town outside the city, but we spent a lot of time visiting my our two aunts and their families. You may not be interested in any of this, but it’s part of the two communities, history
