      Yes, we should be very concerned. Their not moving in our neighborhood to be neighborly or a part of our neighborhood. They are moving in with an intent to take it over.

    Amazing how the majority of the people that are moving into our neighborhood now put up 6 foot privacy fences; most have boats; and do not pull permits, yet, remodel the houses. The hopes of taking over this historically Black neighborhood, like with everything else, is sickening.

      Sadly you’re not wrong..I moved from my childhood home on carver drive, a block away from the park and immediately the was was bought by foreigners who remodeled the whole house then rented it out to more foreigners. They can keep it though because the previous owner before me was murdered in the living room and my whole life I’ve experienced things that people think I’m crazy for when I tell them story’s.

    The houses were built for black people that's why they were built so small with one bathroom smh

    • @TheCultureXYZ
      @TheCultureXYZ Год назад +3

      In 1949, when the homes were build, a one bathroom was standard. The developer Captain Frank C. Martin worked with the University of Miami to design not only the homes but the neighborhood in its entirety. He leveled the playing field with this neighborhood by providing the same amenities that were afforded to the communities developed for non-Blacks despite it being during Jim Crow.

      @moniqueycure1270 Good morning Monique. I am Jessica Garrett Modkins and I am the publisher for The Culture. I wrote the book Images of America: Miami's Richmond Heights and directed the films Richmond Heights 49ers and Miami's Richmond Heights which is streaming on all platforms (Crackle, RedBox, RoKu, Plex). I am also 52 and I was giving you information based on the pioneers account. Like you, I wasn't alive in 1949 but my house on Polk Street had 2 bathrooms but our other home, my grandparents home on Monroe, had 1. In fact, we had to be in school together at the Jr High or Killian. Again, I was only giving you the information I received. No disrespect or ill intent. Great connecting. I'm sure we are classmates.

      Thank you so very much for attempting to enlighten this person. Unfortunate that seems to be impossible. I was born and raised in this community in the early 1960’s, and all that you posted is true. The ignorance of people wanting to spread misinformation is ridiculous. In the late 50’s and 60’s, (when this neighborhood was established), unless you were very wealthy), black and white homes in every state, had a standard 1 bathroom.
      I’m not thrilled with this influx of people. This has always been a very high demographic of Democratic voters. Those moving in our community, are not.

    This is the hood. My cousins used to live there and had their home burglarized multiple times. They sold their home and fled to West Kendall as soon as they could. If you’re not African American, you’re targeted here. Sorry, just the truth from a Miami native 🤷‍♂️.

      It's not really the hood. They're blacks and Hispanics that live there and the area is getting better. Maybe it wasn't too good in the 80s but in 2022 crime has gone down a lot. The subway got robbed and I was there when it happened but it can happen anywhere. Kendall is nice
