"Keep Bushwick Clean & Rats Out" campaign emblazoned on a trash can at 147 Suydam Street in Bushwick, Brooklyn...
Countless streets, littered with trash, and we have a rat problem? Imagine that...
A message brought to you by the New York Department of Health...

peter, i hate to say it but it's the pigs that live there who cause the problem, and no matter where you go there are always pigs.
Peter: 17th Feb 2008 - 22:50 GMT
jack, i think many bushwick residents would agree that the pigs are a big problem around here...

Wow! that street is filthy! The amount of trash on the streets seems to be one of the biggest differences I've seen between Canadian and American cities. Even in my neighbourhood in Montreal, which is a forgotten industrial wasteland, the streets are kept quite tidy where even in fairly nice inner city neighbourhoods in American cities, the streets are often completely strewn with garbage.

I was born in 1933 at 151 Central Ave. between Willoughby and Suydam. It was mostly a Sicilian neighborhood. It was considered a slum then,but NEVER was it filthy like shown in the pictures above! People swept their sidewalks and tried their best to make the most of what they had. We were all poor but we had our pride and didn't live like pigs! I loved it there but also aspired to live better one day. I took the "royal road of education" to become a Physician and now live in a VERY clean Texas city.
People living like pigs have no self respect! Too bad the Dominican Sisters Of St. Joseph Patron School are no longer there to instill learning, morals and ambition. Our families insisted we do right and punished us when we did wrong. They weren't hampered by political correctness, Thank God!
