This is a nice video, Hempstead was different back in the day, just watching this video bringing me back memories and flashbacks, im orginally from Harlem, but i lived here for a couple years when i was a kid, and the time that i spent living in Hempstead, it was wild, especially back then, back then everything was wild, i don't know how hempstead is now, i hear that is still violent in some places, but when i was living there, things was crazy, it was a whole different situration.
Oh trust it still kinda is and you absolutely accurate on back in the days shit Hempstead wasn’t the town you would want to be in shit I’m still here years man it’s like a curse or some shit in Hempstead
I just remember Terrace Avenue back in the 1990’s. There were crack cocaine dealers all over it. The white kids from other parts of Nassau County drive through buying drugs. I don’t know how it is now with kids doing heroin these day where crack was like a 1990’s Terrace thing
Hempstead New York Long Island. Successful and prominent people come from Hempstead and Terrace Ave. Don't let anyone define who you are and reach for the stars 😊😊😊😊😊
I agree with this statement. As I drive down Fulton Ave, all is well until you hit Terrace. T.A. could be its own, dark, depressing dimension/reality. The whole street should be NUKED and rebuilt, that's the only way to clean it up.
Terrace Ave. Memories. I used to go to the Salvation Army day camp right on Atlantic Ave. literally facing down Terrace. Used to hang out in the apartments when I was kid. Went to the park(shown in the first minutes of the video) right behind the apartments. This was back in the 80's....Terrace was crappy then and not much has changed since.
I grew up there from 75 moved into our house on the Heights from Brooklyn when I was 11. Our Block was nice area was mixed income, many working folks. It was rough in some places but never felt unsafe until crack craziness started late 80s and nineties. Haven’t been by In ages
It all looks pretty good when seen through the eyes someone that's unfamiliar with psychological hold it has on it's inhabitants. My residence predates the El Dorado apartments. I grew up surrounded by the better neighborhoods and stealing bikes from Garden city. In the Bronx or Brooklyn you were confronted with the obstacles you knew had to overcome but on Terrace life was a dream until it was too late.
I've walked around where the bus terminal is and where all the restaurants are. Other than that I don't think it's a really bad place but I don't live there so idk.
When the District Court was built two blocks away, there were rumors that a tunnel had been built from the El Dorado to the holding cells of the court. I heard there was actually a holding cell in the El Dorado on Terrace Ave.
@Miranda Casanova that comparing who hood is harder stuff and who gets more bodies is corny first and foremost but I was raised out here, it was extremely ruthless especially in the 80s,90s -mid 2000s ,it's calmed down like 80% it's still gutter and had dudes from the most hood spots in the all 5 boroughs say this. There's 2 other rough hoods in the county besides this and they ranked top heavy in poverty, poor school and social ills for NY state. There's wannabe gangsters everywhere, I saw a lengthy yt video with a Brooklyn guy stressing Brooklyn gets a bad reputation and there's rich million dollar Brooklyn areas and suburbs nobody speaks of and this guy was in the hood in Brooklyn and saying the Bronx is ghetto and he know guys around his way that won't go there.
Yeah we all should want to prosper and be rich... Who tf want to have the title of being the grimiest hood or town. Every1 wants to get out of that situation not sit in poverty there whole life. Just ignorant is all that is
Hempstead has changed a lot! I used to live at 14 Roosevelt pl. Roosevelt has changed too! At least they renamed Centennial PK, Charlie Murphy pk ❤️ BIGUP NASTY RD!
I thought about moving out to Long Island , just to live where it’s quiet..Long Island want us to pay so much money to rent just to live out there and some parts Of the area looking worse than NYC five boroughs 💯
I work in Hempstead at the courthouse right where this guy is driving around. Thank goodness I only have to be there in the daytime and I’ve seen some shit in the daytime. I get the fuck out as soon as I get off work!
It used to be .. its changed significantly. New Cassel is in Westbury ny. Prospect is the main street where ppl hang out... well use too ..you can still catch some of the old heads chilling by the store or the chinese store on the side.
Here first! Good looking my guy, I'm from Terrace Ave. Back when it was called T.A.P. (Terror.Ave.Possie.) And 'The Elder ado's. Just talk to Styme the other day. Good look again for posting my block. I.L. F.L.E.E.T., Hempstead, Uniondale, The Velt, The Bury, Crimedance, The Port, B.W; Boom Side (shoutout to Powerful)C.I., Hunnit Block bitch! Rest up Eon, Henney, Cousin Jay, K Born, and Shakot. Who ever I missed, please don't hold it against me... Its sad...it's so many of u. Rest Up to all my sistas and brothers. 1,000,000!
I never do my Doordash deliveries on Terror Avenue, I'm sorry, Terrace Avenue, unless I've got my gun on me. I'd put Terrance Ave up against some streets in Brooklyn. It's THAT bad.
Come inside some of the buildings out there or live there and you'll see just how ghetto it is 😐. I lived in Hempstead for 15 years so I know first hand.
@@jaysupreme7464 I been inside the buildings two of my aunts live there now go inside any of the buildings in East NY or Brownsville and you’ll see what I am talking about
I used to live in Hempstead for 5 years and take the N6 bus at the terminal to work

There's usually a dark cloud that sits over Terrace Terrace Ave that you can see before you hit the block.
I agree with this statement. As I drive down Fulton Ave, all is well until you hit Terrace. T.A. could be its own, dark, depressing dimension/reality. The whole street should be NUKED and rebuilt, that's the only way to clean it up.
That's strange cause I seen it to terrace has a mysterious vibe about it like you can feel the tension in the air
Just strolling down memory lane. We Left Roosevelt 21 years ago so that our Children would have a better life. And it worked 💪
That was the best decision you made for yourself and children!

I lived in Hempstead and went to school in that area. My mom would always complain and say that it was such a nice town when she was a kid.
She was lying
i've seen anything you can imagine happen in this area.

Hempstead is not a hood just terrace
Isn’t North Franklin or parts of it “hood”?
Right, Hempstead not a hood, it just have areas thats dangerous, just like any other place, it got the good and it got the bad.
@@ejsavage3576 I think Terrace Avenue could be considered a “ hood” . Perhaps also N. Franklin? Or parts of it.
Remember Parkside?
@@marlonhew75 what’s Parkside? Was that a section of Hempstead? Not aware of it
you call this ghetto? come to East NY
Come inside some of the buildings out there or live there and you'll see just how ghetto it is 😐. I lived in Hempstead for 15 years so I know first hand.
