Gentrification has already taken over a good chunk of Harlem. Even in the most hood spots there’s some brunette from Texas who “loves Harlem” and claims it like they’re born n raised.

    This dude is so well spoken, street educated. Knows his hood history, which is really important. I live in a crap looking hood, but when you get told who from here, your eyes will be blown open. I like architecture, live on the west coast, love little stories about little spots if you didnt know . Stay up bro. Definitely changed my my outlook on real New York. We just get the water downed jokers
