Wow, what a waste. It looks fairly pretty there, with the sunshine and the landscaping, too.

Welcome to beautiful Newark!

I got lost in downtown Newark at night last night. It was frightening D:

i only lived in b.t for two years but i can tell you that i will miss this nieghborhood deeply, i have many memories there and spending my 7th and 8 th grade years there attending burnett street school. people are so ignorent, who ever said that newark is a bad place because everywhere has its flaws people just need to come to newark and actually mingle and they will see that newark is filled with loving and caring people

I bought drugs in Baxter Terrace for years. It was infested with Cocaine and Heroin. I ended up homeless and slept in the hallways there. No one cared. BT was a rough a place as I've ever been next to Seth boyden projects. I have a place in my heart for BT, but it is time to go. Good riddance Baxter Terrace. May love and peace be born where you die.
