- Today, we take a tour through some of Philadelphia’s worst neighborhoods and explore 8 housing complexes that you should do your best to avoid if you’re ever visiting the city!
As Philly native I'm almost a thousand %sure the bombing on Osage Ave...of the MOVE Family was the worst masacare...some of these fact aren't legit
FACTZ SISTAH.
I wrote a book report on this incident in college and my professor was thoroughly impressed I never liked what happened and I expressed it in my report she felt my indignation and gave me a B!
I agree i lived on 62nd and larchwood, woke up couldnt go to school that day because of the shooting threw the alleys, i lived @ 6211 larchwood, was sitting on the step later that day when they dropped the bomb on those people.
LOL when he says the MLK homes were in "Southeast" Philly. There's no such thing unless he lives in the River or Camden 😅
@@pinebarrenpatriot8289 right he said Bartrram vill was in South East too
That's SWPHILLY
This video is clownish at best...
And when was Philly segregated it was Mixed with sections of Black White Hispanic areas...but not segregated
6:15 as someone who grew up in Philadelphia, i laughed at "Northern Philadelphia". naw man, you mean "Norf Philly". XD
Out Norf lol
"Down north" 😁
Yoooooo! I was CTFU too! LOL #NORFSIDE
@@urbannuance5151 ... "Where you headed? ... Down NORF" ... BUT ... it really should be UP. LOL
@@nunyabusiness59 ... EXACTLY! LOL
Where ever you have gotten your information from, you were misinformed ,your information is way off, Tasker homes were built for military families initially not low income families, not too mention the Lex street massacre happened in a house(not a project house) and did not happen as you described it, you really need to go back and research again (better this time) thumbs down for the false information.
These ppl never know what they speak on.i am a new Yorker and what they stated about ny nycha was sad and corny.needs to stop with these damn videos.smh
That's what happens when people outside the community tell the stories of others. Colonizers even colonize history to fit their narrative.
@@stilman3780 amen
Absolutely correct.
Yes about the Lex Street Massacre. It was a house. I remember the story and high school friends that knew some of the victims.
Yes, I grew up in No Philly near Richard Allen, had to walk through 10th and Berks projects, played basketball at 33rd and Diamond and had to walk through the Valley, where the Raymond Rosen projects were. Mid 70s Philly was bad, but the gang wars had died down alot by the 80s. Crack took over then and it was a war zone/zombie land.
It’s a war zone now with the drill culture
@@jfraz1992 so sad. It's a clash of cultures with the gentrification going on near Ridge and Temple buying properties all over No. they will ultimately lose as they become displaced.
Yo my grandpop use to tell me story’s about walking through the valley
@@BulldogBank yep. It was bad. Gang wars used to be very deadly
Gentrification is only temporary as the Left wing hipsters love the "city life" but run for the burbs when they are struck with the fact their kids will eventually have to attend the city public school system. Kensington is just a few blocks East of Temple and it's the largest open air heroin now fentenyl market in the Country. Meanwhile Mayfair-tacony is becoming the New Kenso. It is worse then ever. Gentrification is a myth especially in Philadelphia
And it's NOT "Bloomberg" Towers it's "Blumberg" Towers.
😂😂😂
Whatchu expect out of a YT man
I love when Random Ass people who probably never set foot in Philly makes videos on Philly😂😂
I heard the voice and clicked off. No thanks
like when fools make videos about space, dinosaurs, and atlantis you don't have a dinosaur accent fuck outta here smh
🤣Real Shit!!
Yea I wish to talk to him bout his faxs
Amen
Where is Southeast Philly? Cant say I've ever heard of such a place. Did Camden change its name? 😅
Im from Philly "Bartram Village Projects" is in "South West Philly 4sure near Elmwood & Woodland 💯
The body that was found was a dead dog
I live there now I love the neighbors here ya crime but neighbors do anything for u
It’s Bonesy Shawny I see ya oleboy 💯💯💯🎬🎬🎬🎬
I used to live on 52 and woodland
Philly is my area and this list is def off. In my opinion I’d put Richard Allen, Blumberg, Tasker, Diamond st, Wilson Park, Johnson Homes, Mantua, Norris Homes Bartram village
in the top 10 also
Yeah definitely off… i’m from The Blum Wilson Park is definitely up there to..I agree with your list
They just took Tore Norris projects down
Trust me 13th street belongs on there
Sigon belongs on the list
You forgot Penn Town and TNT
Bartram Village is in Southwest not southeast Philly. No one refers to any part of philly as southeast nor does Philly have gangs. Philly had gangs in the 70s and earlier but we don’t gang bang.
People in other states always want to argue with me when i tell them Philly doesn't have gangs
Inner south philly neighborhoods are uptown and downtown. I'm born and raised downtown 4th and Titan around the corner from Southwark plaza projects.
@@lisahudman4995 cross tracks
Good point. You can tell the uploader is not from the Philadelphia area. We refer to Southwest Philadelphia vs. South Philadelphia. We don't call anywhere southeast Philadelphia. That would be a little like calling the state of Virginia East Virginia as opposed to West Virginia.
@@johnratican3824 facts
There is no South East Philly bruh ... and MLK plaza was in Hawthorne like Broad n Christian, that area which is dead center South Philly ... and it's Blumberg ... Blum ... not Bloom ... come on man
Southeast Philly would be Camden on a map lol 😆
@@pinebarrenpatriot8289 hahhaaa bro I always tell ppl that, Camden is East Philly
@@PattyBandAidz the part in the original Rocky when they were ice skating and Rocky is explaining that a South paw (left hander) always faces South towards Camden always confused me until I figured out Rocky is from Kensington which is North of Camden opposed to South Philly which is West. But yeah this video is ass 🤣
@@pinebarrenpatriot8289 straight cheeks bruh 🍑
I was about to say I lived in Philly for about 5 years and didn't really see alot of projects. I see now most were torn down. Great times there, I'll always have BigLove for Philly.
Exactly, I lived in two different parts of philadelphia that had projects. Is north philadelphia east falls. South philadelphia projects. But we never had gangs and drug problems like this.
I saw Philly is rough Killadelphia I pray for the youth daily I read about the JBM and Kaboni Savage
Southeast Philadelphia? As a native to Philly I can say I've NEVER heard of that. "Southeast" Philly would be Camden NJ on any map 😅
I was thinking the same thing … doesn’t exist
Richard Allen projects was my birth place ad as a kid I remember swat being there once a month maybe more. Ram squad was our neighborhood rap stars. Ad ayo they still sale food at that big church
I’m not goin lie apartments like that is all over NY, I have mad respect for philly and I love philly but damn those some lil projects
My bro RIP was Richard Allen all day radic ram squad. Yeah My people rock the heavens bro
Spelt the name wrong but if whoever r eading knows who I'm talking bout just by saying ram squad
My pops was from Richard Allen...called him Fitz...he was/is the grandfather of boy backs
Allen was popping but T.N.T. was it too
I’m from mill creek I live there when I was a little kid in the Early 90s and it was not Safe I live in west Philadelphia. All my life
I moved to mill creek back in '98 then southwest in '07.
YOU MUST NOT be from Philly! I busted out laughing when you said Southeast Philly🤣🤣🤣🤣There is NO such thing! It's South Philly and that's all it's called 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Respectfully...smh.......Southeast Philly 😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Right😂😫
23rd n 💎 4L rip moo❤️
Exactly lol southeast?
Yeah just south and southwest
Right unless he’s talking about southwest
I don't care what state or city you live in large or small just about everybody has a side of town that you know you got to keep your eyes peeled because of any moment it can pop off at any time
Tasker and Bartrum village was wild.
My dad grew up in tasker homes on pierce drive back in 60s 70s. Then we lived on 31st and tasker and it was wild back then
Soon as I heard the narrator and realized he probably never used the word "jawn" in his life I clicked the video off
No bappp 😂
I clicked off when he said "corps" wrong.
😭😭
🤣
😂😂😂🤣that part
I grew up close to Richard Allen, it was a nightmare then and it’s still very active. Also missing on this list are Penn Town Projects and Tenth & Thompson (both of which are right next to Richard Allen) and Fairhill Projects.
The Cambridge Mall towers were on 10th Street next to Richard Allen homes, they imploded them as well.
TNT 10th and Thompson.
The comments are sooooo more on point than the video!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Way to go Philly! Oh I went to Ried btw.
I live in philly and there is no southeast philly
Lololol bruh facts
What part is Cassidy and Gilly from?
@@duvalt87 north there is no such thing as southeast philly
IK bro I'm asking what part of Philly is Cassidy and Gilly are from What neighborhood to be exact
@@duvalt87 gillie from Erie ave and Cassidy from germantown
First of all that’s not what happened on Lex street murders. He done gentrified the Lex street murders. This dude never been to Philly. Mantua projects no one in Philly never heard of this place 😂😂😂. What is Southeast Philly? No one says MLK it’s call Saigon projects located in South Philly. Philly don’t have gang. Bertram village. Bloomberg projects shootouts ain’t no different than any other projects in the USA. Ramon Rosen was really bad in the 80’s and 90’s but no different than any other PJ in the USA. Again Philly don’t have gangs. Tasker homes was one of the worse in the city. This dude is angry with Philly. Richard Allen was terrible but a fun place to hang at. All of these projects are more safe than any projects in NYC.
JBM, yeah that was a gang.
I Cosign ALL your CORRECTIONS FAM ... PHILLY Stand da Fuc Up!
@@bjt81366 ... Nah, it's like FIF said, "They got GANGS on the WEST COAST ... on the EAST COAST, We had DRUG DEALER CREWS."
@@AlSmoovMovement Dude I was there, it was a gang.
I'm 48 ... I was "there" too, alot more than I'll EVER divulge. 💯🤷🏽♂️
You should of gotten a Philly native to help you with this jawn. Bull has some facts mix up. Most 80 babies & older know the mistakes. Raymond roses also known as Diamond street projects (Diamonds world &/ or Diamond District)
No,DIAMOND WAS DIAMOND & RR WAS RR WHEN IT WAS UP,THEY GANG WARRED
Martin Luther King AKA Saigon!!! That Jawn was Crazy!!!
shout to 13th street projects aka mlk pjs aka li'l saigon (r.i.p.)...
This bol read something he was told to-prolli never stepped foot around these parts. He lost me at “Northern Philly” I’m from Norf & I never heard a OG’ call it that.
He lost me at "southeast" Philly. Wouldn't that be Camden? LOL garbage video
By the way Abbotsford Projects was no joke either should have definitely made the list. They had more killings than I could count. I had an Aunt who lived not far from there (roughly 4 blocks) but I would make sure as a teen that I made it home long before it got dark. My Aunt would take me to the K bus at Ridge and Midvale aves and I would hurry up and get home.
Yo K, hello from Georgia, I grew up in East Falls , I rode the K bus to Germantown Ave. and the 61 bus from Ridge & Midvale near the river all the Time, you bring back memories !!!
@@way75mit9 Back in the day you would not want to be at Ridge and Midvale on Friday and Saturday nights.
True lived in the low rises in the 70s but Diamond St was a whole different beast
@Way75Mit I rode the k..from the projects I'm from hillcreek to ridge and Midvale walk dwn to east falls
East falls project in the 90s were crazy too!!
Honorable Mention: Hill Creek Projects. Rising Sun & Adams Ave. Between Olney & Lawncrest neighborhoods.
Born and raised in hillcreek 1975
@@beverlyferris4655 Hill Creek seemed a lil tough. I was born in 71. Was told to watch my ass round there. Was it that crazy? Just asking. How was it? Hello from Philly by the way.
As a native of Norf Philly, the comment section is a thousand times more accurate and informative than the colonizer video.
"The colonizer video" 😆 🤣
You're a coloniser too for not moving back to Africa, and before you say anything I am not American and my country never colonised any other territory
Sommerville, East Falls and Abbotsford Projects were more dangerous than a few of these. But good stuff!
Right.
Abbottsford 3200 💯💯💯
Abbotsford 💯
SO TRUE
East falls was never hard
I lived in Richard Allen. The crazy thing is that was the happiest years of my life. We had the Double Dutch Bus, the One Dollar Man and the pizza bus. Mom sold 40s. Skins was the big time dealer.Rizzo was mayor 836 C Alder place was home. From that place came Drs, Teachers, Professors, Actors, Comedians, Singers top ranking military personnel and more.Growing up there yes we've seen some things, but we played outside, built snow ladies, played in the mail and laundry rooms. Went to Charles Memorial Baptist church.Shoped on Marshall street and St. Luke's was our go to hospital. M.C. Wister was our School. 8th street was our pool and playground. We went to the WMCA for Sunbeam troops. So many memories most very good.
Year you lived there
Yeah I’m from TNT …it was dangerous but also fun
The same for me I lived in the projects in a late sixties early seventies. Those were some good old times.
@@phillybul215Richard Allen projects created some legends Bill cosby , Wanya Boyz to men , Ram squad
@@NorthPhilly-zr7xc yup bill was from Cambridge houses but it’s right next to Richard Allen …
I grew up in the Richard Allen/Cambridge mall projects and 12th and Girard in the 80’s and 90’s That’s a very diverse area just a few blocks down the street to the east across the 9th Street bridge you have the Latinos population and two blocks to the north you had the Harrison projects. I remember growing up you had a war between Harrison projects and Richard Allen they would have shoot outs in the playground or fights in the schools. But the area was also very family oriented everybody knew everybody and the elderly was well respected and we all looked out for everyone families.
I’m from that area too and live around there now. There is a war to this day between Richard Allen, Harrison Projects (Tenth & Thompson) and Penn Town to this day. It’s why the area is one of the most dangerous in Philly still.
So true I'm from both hoods Richard Allen Cambridge mall I lived down there since the late 60s been there done that nice people and older people we look out for miss it
Yup same area as me …my era was TNT and Richard Allen together vs penntown …but now it’s penntown and TNT vs Richard Allen
The worst part is that a lot of these places that were built or are being built are ruined by the residents (not all of them) who dont respect their homes or neighborhoods. Who is to blame for urine soaked hallways and trash strewn around? It's not the PHA . Not the architects. Not the workers.
How liddonfield is not in here is crazy it was like the 2nd or 1st biggest in the city and in the 90’s if you were kicked out of other projects liddonfield would accept you so we had people from all the projects in the same place
Bartram Village is in SouthWEST Philly
Abbottford and east falls projects in the 90s were crazy too. Idk if they should make the list but damn were they crazy times
Lived in Cambridge Mall and attended the original Spring Garden Elementary School which was surrounded by Richard Allen. Great times and good people 👍
Where did you get your information from. Message me so we can redo this list. I’m a young Philadelphia historian when it comes to this.
Remember the projects in East Falls
The sad part is some things were bought on by ourselves. We didn't have a lot but we helped each other. We were a community then. Mrs. Smith watched and whooped us when our parents weren't around. We shared food, kept the places clean. Sometimes I wonder if we would of kept up with that, would PHA done more to keep the places safe and clean. Just a thought. The rate of fatherlessness led to more poverty, babies having more babies and being allowed to stay on welfare for so long as an option didn't help. It hindered us, made us lazy. The more kids you had, the more money you received. The system failed us and we failed ourselves.
You're 10000% right? I agree with you a lot of things were bought on by ourselves.. Those were brand new apartments project. And we just let them go to a shit Hell. It's not the white man's fault.
Mill Creek Apartments 1950s/1960s-2002
Mantua Hall 1961
Martin Luther King Jr 1960s-1999
Bartram Village 1942
Blumberg Towers 1960s-2016
Raymond Rosen Homes 1954-1995
Tasker Homes 1942-2004
Richard Allen Homes 1941
Yeah I'm a former tenant of Queen Lane projects in the German town area. And I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned. But I lived there in 1986 with 3 little girls, and it was frightening at times .
Southeast Philadelphia that made me laugh
The fact they just randomly put Gilly picture and he not from any of the projects...
😂😂😂😂
Yooo they back
Bertram village is in south west Philly
Bartram Village
Right
Born in Tasker Projects and lived there until I was 24 years old.
Young Guns!
Me too
31 💪🏾💪🏾
My dad lived in Blummberg projects and I live in Raymond Rosen That city needs help I hope it gets it
He needs to learn the P is silent in Marine Corps......smh 🤦🏿♂️
We don't have a south east philly we have a south philly and southwest but I never hear of southeast philly

That lex street shit was in a house lol
Exactly.
Richard Allen is one of my stomping grounds my grandfather lived there many years
My people's also..
Good Souls at Richard Allen
What about East Falls Projects
Housing projects are not the norm in Philadelphia the whole neighborhood is a project. It’s majority row houses. You have to go out your way to end up in a housing project like Abbotsford for example. That is literally on top of a hill
Exactly what I was telling other commenter who said Philly projects look small. It’s not just the huge tower but the entire neighborhood that’s the projects. Especially dangerous are those narrow ass crowded back blocks. IYKYK
No Schuykill Falls was the one on top of the hill.You could see those two towers from the Expressway. One thing though both projects was isolated in there own and both hated each other at one time.
They left out the East Falls Projects in the Maniyunk section of the city , and the Abbottsford Projects near Germantown !!!
Exactly
Omg I live in East fall projects if I'm right the one building had the train station behind it. My grandmother used to manage the laundromat late 60s early 70s
you know both east falls projects (skuylkill falls pjs) and abbortsford projects is in the east falls section of northwest philly...
As kids my brother and i loved to walk down by the river and fish , we lived in the Earlham Bldg Highrise !!!
you are very right , been a long time I live in Georgia now , havn't been there since 1978 !!
I had absolutely noooooo clue these buildings even existed here in my city
PHILLY ALL MY LIFE40yrs..
I guess mom dukes did her best, kept us out kept us safe
@TRUE Jackson and 11th n Cumberland
U from upper Darby or sumn?
@TRUE Jackson still got fairhill pjs in north, a piece of bumberg left (one tower), one tower from southwark plaza pjs (5th st. pjs in s.p.) left...
What part of Philly did you grow up that you missed all that . They’re everywhere can’t miss it unless u way up north east somewhere or chestnut hill I guess.
I grew up in Philly and I wasn't aware there was such a place called "southeast" Philly until this video. And all these years I've been calling it Camden LOL 😆
Funny how my elementary teacher look down on kids from southwalk project that was in her classroom…come to find out, she was from Richard Allen Project herself, someone who said they knew her, said yea she always acted like she was better than everyone who lives there…she passed away 8/24/20. I was shocked to hear she’s was from the PJ’s. Elaine Francis from Richard Allen PJs
Damn, it’s not right to look down on people especially if you coming from the same environment. Some people are brainwashed like that and wind up fighting against their own people.
Philly a rough ass city period
General rule of thumb: Most people won’t appreciate what they have not EARNED
The central theme of this video.
Thank god i live in kanada only ghetto ive seen WARSAW GHETTO
to Americans not all black PEOPLE live in ghettos..
@@vantastroganoff4370 that is a fact the word “ghetto” came from Jewish neighborhoods in Warsaw, Poland
im confused with what you mean? these people have earned a better quality of life than they get. when you go and work 40 hours a week as a single mother and then cannot still afford a good quality of life and have to live in low income housing your not going to sit there and tell me her and her kids do not deserve better. stupid that you blame people for a broken system designed to keep them financially down, dead, or in jail. if the amount of guns were in white neighborhoods as there are in these neighborhoods we'd have mass shootings and serial killers every other day. you didn't earn your white skin you and privilege you were born with it.
@@ricanbaby54 you need a skill or a good education. any one white or black deserve a better quality of life there are 100s of thousands of blacks maybe even millions that have nice lives because they earned it.
Very surprised that Queen Lame Projects did not make the list. The neighborhood is much safer. The Germantown Courier (local paper) reported more crime that did not make local news. When I was 5 there were alot of stabbings in the 70's. The shootings happened in the 80's and 90's. I had family that lived near Richard Allen Projects but I felt more safe in the day time than walking around Queen Lane Projects during the day time. I remember always seeing the chaulk marks of the dead bodies at the QLP. I was very afraid as a child because of all the killings. What made matters worse was that these killings were not getting local attention in the news like the attention that Raymond Rosen Homes and Richard Allen Projects were receiving in the news.
FACTS! You're one of few that knew of QLP. I remember stomping on the vials on the way to school back in the early 90s. Zombies walking 24/7. Outside of the tower, the basketball court was not a place to hang (day or night). Pulaski was a different street back then. It's COMPLETELY different now.
YESSS it was horribe
Projects = Science Projects !!! (Literally)
By White Elites
It seems pretty easy to avoid them if they were demolished
No. Because the projects still exist at those sites even without the towers there.
Also I kept hearing “gangs” and although they are technically gangs, it’s more of a clique thing. No major organized gangs because of the mythical black mafia presence still in the city. Most “gangs” aren’t more than 15-20 people. No Bloods, Crips, Folks, or Peoples nation gangs. Members may move here from other areas but nothing ever sticks.
There are definitely Bloods in Philly. Its s couple different sets between Pirus and Brims throughout West Philly and North Philly. But overall you correct Philly is not a city dominated by nationwide gangs
Nah brah, JBM was real.
@@mannru3884 Are you serious? I've never seen any graffiti proclaiming their set or anybody flying their colors. It was something in the Daily News earlier in the year about young bucks in South Philly and West Philly calling themselves The Northsiders and stuff like that. There's been lots of shootings in these areas. ( We just hit 400 this morning)
But like he said.. Whatever comes to this town never sticks.
The Bloods in Philly don't tag walls or do all that shit because nobody would know what it means anyway. I'm from West Philly 52nd and Master St. I been a Piru since I was 11 years old. Been to LA and all that shit. Everybody in Philly that know me from the hood to the schools I went to know me for being a Piru. And I can tell you for sure there are probably about 150 total Bloods (if you combine all the different sets) operating within the city. We still from Philly so we have the same accents and dress alike. But there are definitely Bloods in the city. Again, the majority of Philly don't gang bang so it is not going to make any mainstream media news in the city.
Not sure how old you are but the gangs that dominated Philly were late 50's, 60's & 70's and they were definitely larger than 15 - 20 members. The gangs ended in the mid 70's. All of the urban projects had gangs attached to them and in some cases multiple gangs. Gangs in Philly were identified by the corner you were from, i.e., Raymond Rosen Projects (The Valley), Richard Allen Projects (12th & Poplar), Blumberg Projects (Demarcco's gang & 24th & Redner street gang). The gangs littered the entire city fighting and killing one another until the Black mafia and the drug game took over the streets in the early-mid 70's. If you go into the Daily new archives, you can see all the articles written about the gang activity, way before there were Bloods and Crips, which surfaced in the late 70s-80s.
Hmmm......there's no mention of the West Park projects on 46th and Market! I remember a situation sometime back in the ''80's where there were two bodies found shot up in a car they were brother and sister and crack viles strewn around..(reminds me of ''Goodfellas'')...!! They never solved that case...a lot of shit went on in there!!
My grandma lived in the Tasker Homes. She got out of there in the early 2000s and not a moment too soon.
Tasker was no joke
Richard Allen is 2 blocks from Temple university, so it’s a crazy mix. I live in the city and attend college in North Philly
Free rent makes it hard to survive?
I lived in Martin Luther king plaza apt in the early 80 to early 90 ❤️🤦🏿♀️❤️ #SAIGON!!
Me too. It's obvious that whoever did the narration to this knows ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about Philly. 'Cause if he did, he'd know that the 'Gon was located in SOUTH Philly. Point blank period. And UA-cam... do yourselves and everyone else a HUGE favor... when you do pieces like this, make sure that your narrator is from whatever city they're talking about. 1241.
I recently moved out of the Raymond Rosen homes I didn’t expect them to make this video. And there is no southeast philly
Right it’s called southwest Philly
Southwark use to be crazy, mostly retirement now, whenever I go back to philly all I look for is the blue church spire from the highway. use to have three huge project building next to it, now it one, they blew them up. SOUTH PHILLY
Were you there when Southwark used to battle MLK ???? It was tun and gun all through Queen Village and Bella Vista. Lived at 7th and Kimball when this was happening.
Y’all keep forgetting West park 46 and market
Facts. How they skip over THAT???
@@mauricereynolds1751 Fosho
In the mid 1980s I worked on the elevators in PHA , every hallway had a trash Shute at its end the tenants were expected to walk their trash to the Shute and drop a bag of trash ,instead they opened their doors and put trash in hallway the result was the maintenance crews had to spend hours a day walking the trash to the shutters instead of making repairs
That happens even in luxury buildings, I’m a property manager and I’ve seen it myself. But it’s even harder for poor people to care when everything is breaking down and dirty around them already.
Damn I remember those days at the projects in east falls. Send all that flame coming up from the shoot. But the people just didn't care.
We lived in Mill Creek projects...moved to SW Philly in 1970, moved to Cherry Hill in 1976................
Ah I see you're a man of culture as well oh wait wrong video lol
I will meet you there
My fave place
I could not date any woman from this place i be disown.
Visser be disappointed 😂🤣😂
54 street is we’re bartram village at 54 and Lindbergh
I remember the Bloomberg and Ramond Rosen projects. It was a crazy place to be.
Former tenant at 812a Alder Place from 1958 - 1969 (Willow). Even after all these years I hope to one day meet up with one of my childhood friends some how some way to reminisce of the super childhood we've enjoyed.
I still say you cannot blame crime on poor housing. Crime is caused by criminals. Public housing does not cause crime. What? After the projects are torn down, did all the criminals decide to lead honest law abiding lives? Of course not. We still need low cost housing for the poor, and I am tired of public housing being made the scapegoat for problems caused by criminals.
Lol true
Preach brother!
Also home city to Hail to the Chief (Anthem of U.S. Presidents), Comcast and Cigna (America’s two most hated big companies). My city.
Can You do Oakland brodie we got alot over heer
My husband sister was murdered in those projects, her name was Tina Green with a daughter name Monique, who actually in the house when the murder happened.
Do one for Washington DC.
I lived in gate city project's in Birmingham Alabama and one of the most dangerous project's in the south and still is till this dsy
Im from birmingham
There is no southeast section of philly
Yes there is. Its called Camden, lol
@@bifftannen2062 that would be considered east philly too lol
Kensington area
Im from 11th & Diamond(Norris st Projects) and was always in Cambridge at my grandma's crib so i seen firat hand what Richard Allen was like. My sister lives there now
Why is gillie in the thumbnail like he was a real head bussa
A lot of the comments say you have your information wrong and that you are not from philly, I don't know I'm not the sharpest dego in the kitchen drawer.
One question, without looking it up , what do we mean by the body bag game?
I’m 36 and never heard of “southeast Philly” lol and Bartram Village is in South West Philly my guy
How B it D announcer says 'as soon as people moved in there was high crime and the buildings fell into disrepair; who B doing all the damages?
2t9 “t” for tasker
the white hoods would tag they streets like that, yeah. cats wouldn't let my people get back home to tasker projects grom 26rh street...
What about hillcreek projects? On rising sun & adams ave?
I lived on10th&thompson+blumberg-blumberg has been demolished
