in response to: Bushwick 77: The Casusos of Harman St. by upfromflames

Warren S.: Richie, you are right on the money there! It's like it was practice for more violent things to come. I hear that St. Barbara's church is or was closed, and they only say masses on......

There is also......

in response to: These Things No Longer Exist by Andrew Smith

Elicar: EvilG, please explain why it would be a "destruction". Wouldn't be more appropriate to use "restoration", "resurrection". "refurbishment", etc.? In my mind, destruction is putting something out of commission, making something unusable. This is just......

Andrew Smith: Natalie - the bowling green is still there, though now fenced off to prevent it being used as a football pitch. The tennis courts have been refurbished, though you now have to pay to use......

Susan F: I lived in Benny Farm during the 1950's & 60's. Certainly looked a lot better then and it does now. Was a great community to grow up in; tons of kids to play......

in response to: The Benny Farm Condemned Housing Projects by EvilGentleman

Veteran's daughter: I lived here from 1963 - 1966 and remember it as being rather nice. Went back to Montreal about 6 years ago, and took a tour around the old neighbourhood. I was shocked to see......
