    My family lived in Hell's Kitchen in the late 60's upon first arriving in the States... Needless to say, it wasn't a great neighborhood at the time, and the decision was soon made to move the troop to northern NJ. Interesting to hear how the neighborhood received protected status, makes you wish it had happened to more parts of the city.. It's these unmolested neighborhoods that feel most authentically NY. Been a fan of yours since the 80's, and i'm really happy to see that you've continued to experience success with your career. Wishing you continued success and health and happiness.. And definitely looking forward to more from the Block by Block series. Cheers, Colin.

    My old man grew up in hells kitchen in the fourties’. Him and my grandfather were longshoremen. His nickname was sailor Reilly because when he was a kid , he stole a bunch of sailor hats and gave them out to his friends. He used to talk about how each block was its own gang and how they would use the younger ones as bait in order to get other gangs to chase them into alleys , so his gang could drop whatever they could find on their heads.
    In order to avoid other gangs they would use the roofs to travel. His best friend was playing around on a roof and fell through the skylight to his death.

    I was there 2 months ago. It was a very nice and well kept neighborhood. So much of ny has changed since the 80's. Lifting the rent controls and the 40 year drops in mortgage rates really made the difference
