That's the old birdsville projects. They were originally built for military housing. The Air Force. That's why all the street names are named after birds.
We lived on Eagle drive back in the 60’s. The houses had wood siding and screen porches. Clothes lines in the back yard. It was really well maintained and nice. This was when they were still intergrated. There was a white section and a black section. Another housing project was over on Michigan Ave. it was all brick houses. Very nice.
Birds Ville my hometown....I hung out in this area a lot back in the day! Great memories! RV Taylor across the street is the worst off Michigan Ave. If feels good to see Mobile nice weather!
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS the greens in fortladerdale use to be worse before they fixed them up u should come back to the greens next to north fork elementary school
My parents grew up in this housing area... back when it was first built. Thanks for videotaping this. They met exchanging comic books here. You can see how it would have been nice back in the 50s for family living.
I'm from Mobile. I saw every footage that was put on camera. I held back from commenting long anuff because I'm from that area and don't promote violence anymore and I just got out of prison. Testimonial though, what makes these projects and Mobile super dangerous in general is that people would kill a person in broad day light sober minded for whatever situation without shooting up heroin or any kind of drug. It's very sad to say but true and this been going on it ain't just started. I remember watching the news in the late 90's with my grandaddy at his house when they said that Mobile and New Orleans is the murder capital of the world, not the US. I said that to speak truth on this. I new what murder was but not what capital was and it is slot worse in these days. Two more things. A lot of cases is still cold meaning they are unsolved incase any who's reading never been in trouble with the law to know what that mean. Last but not least every individual that lives who's on that type of time are very sneaky that's why during this clip you didn't really see no one outside but that don't mean that at any moment a murder is bound to happen. Remember this is M.O.B and everyday of the week something is on the news. NoCap.... With that I share. Be blessed and stay safe world wide.
@@FAMLIFETVCHANNEL5 Yes it was very serious. A lot of individuals was killed in those times when the moved Orange Grove into RV. Both projects were getting killed it was sickening to the stomach
@@FAMLIFETVCHANNEL5 very serious , I'm from Baltimore projects, orange grove and r dub was our enemies then, really anything across MLK was an enemy, because we we're crips
Man I’m from Mobile and y’all doin the most in the comments😂😂😂 It’s only dangerous in Mobile if you around ppl who in beef or drama. If you stay out the way you’ll be aight. Keep a buck all the crime is between ppl that know each other not random attacks
Crazy part is you're able to slowly cruise the neighborhood with a camera mounted and haven't been threatened watched or harassed, whereas u could never drive through projects in Chicago without being targeted and possibly killed! It's always ppl like yourselves claiming the worst of an area...smh 🙄
These were newer built projects. Happy Hill, Roger Williams, Orange Grove , and Bessemmer were built maybe in the 50’s because my mom grew up in two of them in the 50’s and 60’s. Lots of people were killed over nothing in these places. Even as late as 2008-2010 just singing about which one you were from in the club erupted in fights
Im from San Francisco. Wanna see some fuked up jets type in...sunnydale projects....harbor rd projects...or potreo hills projects. Just a few I live in Mobile now. Mayesville projects are grimey but if the city remodled those houses it could look nice. Just need some love. Them ole jets in Prichard were mainy. Reminded me of Double Rock which use to be across the st.from Candlestick Park.4real tho i think the worse jets were all 3 in the 3rd ward Nawlins. I was light weight spooked and im from the jets
That's Birdsville in the beginning i had friends who lived there you are right down the street from Brookly Field i lived in Plateau which was close to Happy Hills that was a big housing project that might be gone by now Birdsville was a home for military people back in the 40s and 50s.
You could find out a few things by five minutes of reading Mobile news. That housing project is slated for demolition and renovation. The ones boarded up obviously are not occupied. Residents have been getting moved out with housing vouchers into Section 8 housing and apartments all over the city for the last couple of years. A new apartment complex is to get built not far from there this year.
I don't know maybe its because I am feeling my own impending doom of being homeless which would be way worse than thinking about living in the projects or what some call the hood, these don't look all that bad to me at all. I see possible roofs over my family and my heads. I would not have a couple of weeks ago when I had a dream to be a homesteader living in maybe Georgia or South Carolina but a dream can be killed in seconds when pushed as we have to do what we have no choice in doing. Sad really!
I lived in Birdville for a time back in the 60's, they were nice homes and people did mind their own business with very little violence. They are vacant now because Mobile Airport Authority bought them up for the land. They are expanding the airport at Brookley Field and the land will become part of it. All that's left now is demolition.
Not really. In the 70s & 80s most of us moved out into the outskirts when other house with its own yard came available. We moved closed to dog river. But stayed on the parkway. I don't know what happen in 90s into today's tho. It was very peaceful in my days. I miss all my friends.
It were worst projects in Mobile. RV Taylor, Orange Grove, Roger Williams and Bessemer were all worst than Birdsville. Rich Boyz video was shot in Roger Williams.
I'm a 60s kid those houses are not projects those were good homes for the low income people the brick ones were built to replace the old wooden ones my uncle bought one of them wooden b4 the got torn down had the old house moved out to sims area. My aunt still lives in it. So please don't call birdville housing a projects I lived on raven Dr and eagle drive in the 80s
Yout in birdviviill built off interstate 10 for people who lived off base before they closed it Bbroklee Airforce base sorry about my spelling I got one of them Mobile county education closed in the early 60s
Why are these sweet little homes being demolished - at no time have we been told exactly what makes them the "worse" project. There must be a reason because the lawns look like they're being kept up and I've paid attention to the roofs and windows - this looks like the all American neighborhood.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS more like Southern POVERTY - you have no idea of how the truly destitute, dirt poor live . . . I DO!! Not all live YOUR privileged life.
the government? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 AINT NOTHING FREE IN AMERICA. get their lazy butts up at 5 AM and go work. I live in a nice suburban area, the commute here starts at 4:30 AM... if the rich people have to work,,,why poor people sit back and wait for the government to help? man these alabama people are unreal.. GET A JOB, GET A LIFE.. only thing free in USA is a husband in jail..

These definitely aren't the worst in the country. Click bait title

He absolutely said the worst in the country which blows my mind.
He's alluding to THE TITLE which says, "the worst he's ever SEEN", not what he SAID! 😉
You can’t read then…
They look pretty damn rough
Seeing this living from here is kinda cool from another perspective. Thanks for posting. Have you been back since this video
Alabama scares me i avoid it now. Too much hate.

These houses and neighborhoods would be beautiful if they weren’t abandoned. So much land and nice sized houses
Never thought it looked that bad down that way
alabama is horrendous
Boy did I call that one earlier when you asked where this was located. I said, Mobile AL 💥
I grew up in the area, it wasn’t so bad as being reported. But then I am 60, graduated from college and never looked back.
Watching the first 48 now GTfOH
Admittedly, the city has gone through some ebbs and flows, some peaks and valleys, since you left.

I just saw the house we lived in on West Cardinal drive, we lived on Titmouse drive also.
So what went wrong? This is actually a very beautiful neighborhood. Was is lead or asbestos?
