in response to Make Your Own ID..

Kathy C: Wow! Those photos seem like a lifetime ago. I was about 10 in the 3rd photo - walking with my big brother. Looking at the photos it does appear as if it were a disaster area. But growing up as a child it really didn’t seem...

in response to My House in Bushwick

Bazz: Thanks Peter, that sounds brilliant. We wanted American culture and it looks like we're gonna get it! The commute will be no problem, I don't think we'll be going into Manhattan much other than work cos it sounds like everything you would want is there! Thanks a million for all...

in response to Dangerous to Walk Around Brooklyn?

HSH: If there's anyone on this page who's actually living in Bushwick right now, I'd love to get your perspective and hear your experiences. I was just there yesterday looking at properties. Some really gorgeous stuff and one in particular was INSANELY priced. I agree that the neighborhood still has a...

in response to Habitat

PEMA: Cool i love seeing stuff about bushwick. my husband grew up there and stayed till he was 27 and then moved down south where we met so its so fascinating to me what he life was like up there. way different from how he lives now anyway. ...

in response to Iced Out, Zoomed In:

PEMA: relax honey sometimes kind words go alot farther and last longer.

in response to My House in Bushwick

AD: This picture doesnt represent ALL of Montrose. Some of the area has cracked-out broken sidewalks (and pple) that will fracture your ankles if you try to walk on them. There are areas that are occupied by male prostitutes walking the streets. Other areas are nice though, (mostly...

in response to Montrose Sidewalks

AD: Its not being torn down because of the "outdated" movies they show.. Theyre shutting down because their lease is up and its not going to be renewed...

in response to Soon To Be Demolished

AD: I ate there once with a friend from out-of-town, man the food was horrible. I love real Tex-Mex but truly this place was worse than Taco Bell... My friend (who is white) thought the same and we vowed never to eat there again.

in response to Felix Mexican Restaurant

CE: Thanks! I'm going to have to get more pictures of this place, especially at night when it's all lit up. I used to think the building was really ugly but It's really growing on me.

in response to Atwater Market

Lady Fualk: Hutchinson is a joke. I wonder why there are so many people posting on this site? I had to search for Hutchinson Kansas Sucks on google to find it.... People must a tired of it. Also I no criminal, but I feel like I am living Nazi Germany with all...

in response to Enniskillen

CE: Thanks for explaining it. Very thorough! You wouldn't happen to know anything about the third picture would you?

in response to Montreal Circa 1979

CE: The design proved too expensive to be produced on a mass scale and would therefore fail in its goal to make affordable housing. It takes a lot of material to make each one of those boxes.

in response to Habitat

Eric: CCP project was absolutely the worst. I had many friends (good people) who lived there. I only hope they made it out OK. I graduated from Kennedy back in 1983 and went on to earn a BS degree from Trenton State College a.k.a The College of NJ. Many fond memories...

in response to paterson factory - may 2002

jeeff: lucky you. there are lots of 'no trespassing' signs now, so i didn't get too close. i agree tho, i wonder why this type of design hasn't been pursued. you get high density without the stifling sameness and alienating anonymity (!) of traditional apartment buildings. computer...

in response to Habitat

jeeff: to put this in context, this is just off the path, seemingly in the middle of a forest. for some reason i expected zombies to attack.

in response to robot building

Chiamattt: I seem to remember being inside one of the units at Habitat67. I think an aunt or some sort of distant relative I don't see anymore lived there. They are cool. I wonder why more places like that aren't built?

in response to Habitat

Tehoke: This picture seems to be taken about 5 blocks west of The Sun Life building, from an upper floor of what is now the Quality Inn on Crescent Street or More likely the building that used to be the YWCA in downtown Montreal(or some building that is no longer there...
