THE BRONX: THE OTHER NEW YORK

New York is not just Manhattan. Not all skyscrapers limousines and yellow cabs ... We had the good sense to make multiple New York tours during our journey, and one of the most interesting unknown is the NEW YORK AND ITS CONTRASTS.
is interesting to explore the Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn, the Jewish Quarter, the Indian, Latin etc ...

In the South Bronx, impress the streets, its people, the Latino gang graffiti, the graffiti memorials to Nelson (The Robin Hood of the Bronx allegedly beheaded by his brother for dinner and myth become idolized) devoted to the rejection of black people for the murder with 22 shots at Amadou Diallo at the hands of two white officers as he asked and he identified (black leather) sought documents from his pockets may have been told that he was pulling out a gun ...
... Or the shoes hanging on telephone wires as a sign of a trophy for the "hunted" by the new leader of the gang, the bastoneros or "fuckers" attracting customers with no written language of their "apparent lameness, camels, signs of the police and their cameras, the lack of taxis (no yellow taxi up to the Bronx), number of stores closed during business hours "?, desperate mothers riots at the gates of the court asking the judge to give a new opportunity to his "little children "....
the area say that if you do not mess with the Bronx, he does not get you, (even if you leave the language , It is likely to make you "tie" if you are a girl or "pure" if you are male) despite this, he feels a mixture of excitement and fear as you walk its streets. At times you feel in the role of a thriler-style
Morgan Freeman's great to tread the streets while listening to "Pedro Navaja" by Ruben Blades .. It is just perfect ..... I recommend

The Bronx is located northwest of the city of New York above Manhattan. The "South Bronx or South Bronx district is the area nearest the Bronx to Manhattan and during the 70's and 80 underwent a continuous process of degradation and decay which, aided by film and television-ended by giving the image fearsome and notorious that we all now know.
The neighborhood, ethnic, poor and overcrowded, was a victim of racial segregation and injustice, and was the bitter expression of poverty, marginalization and social inequality. The deterioration of the district began in the 40 neighborhoods closest to the Harlem River, Mott Haven and Melrose , ranging in 70 to Hunts Point, Morrisania and Highbridge .
But this process was not spontaneous. For that to happen had to ally a set of elements and strongly aggressive conditions. Input, the white population living in the neighborhoods of the Bronx, which was mostly Jewish, left with the massive influx of Hispanic and black West Indians and U.S. Southern states
This was true for simple racism and also influenced by an illegal practice but widespread among estate agents was to convince owners that home prices would fall with the arrival of "new neighbors" for what they sold in a hurry and low, resulting in speculative business for real estate . For its part, the owners of buildings, new or old, began to worry about their property, to which they could not draw the desired revenues and they are deteriorating for lack of maintenance.



At the same time, local authorities stopped investing in slum areas, due to the economic crisis the country was in the period. In an attitude, a mixture of racial and economic conservatism, private investors, banks and insurance companies as possible avoid contact with the people and neighborhoods of the South Bronx, which resulted in complete inactivity.
urban networks were broken completely: it lacked an efficient transport system that brings the neighborhood to the city, making the same urban space, the fabric of neighborhoods was also split, the neighborhood was a "ghetto" incommunicado and structurally shorted . To this we must add to unemployment and lack of expectations of its inhabitants.
The maximum degree of madness came when many homeowners residential buildings decided they burn out more cost effective houses and collect the insurance to continue holding them. Thus came the hell the Bronx. The fire started in Harlem and moved around the South Bronx. The poor and wretched were resettled in the battered buildings and chaos took over the district. The City of New York , then a little media left the houses were burning, more concerned with what happened in affluent neighborhoods. The zenith of urban decay Bronx marked him drugs and in particular heroin and crack. " The neighborhood became a drug store and a haven for drug addicts. Thus, crime fear and insecurity were the face of day to day in the Bronx.



After more than two decades after those turbulent years, the Bronx is reset and try to raise his head. After the demolition of slums sick and institutional development plans for reconstruction and resettlement, normalcy has returned to the district and come entrepreneurial initiatives proposed local economic development.
the Bronx, still in recovery, says goodbye to his problems as depressed suburb and says hello to "envelope." Today
has been coined Sobro term ("South Bronx"), as a "brand", mimicking the in SoHo , "South of Houston Street (south of Houston Street) and referring to the area of \u200b\u200bthe same name City of London, making a sort of spell to erase the stigma of the recent past.



However, this apparent economic revival, can bring about a process of "gentrification" or gentrification, whereby, if rahabilitadas areas acquire a certain level of prestige and quality of life, atraeeran the urban bourgeoisie in the city center (Manhattan, "where housing prices reached impossible-) and it will gradually displacing the population already lives in the area, which can not cope with the rising cost of neighborhood progressive (as in the SoHo , or Williamsburg ).
Bronx History is not unique and is the result of a sociopolitical and socioeconomic status. The United Kingdom experienced a similar experience in the decade of the 70-80, which were affected cities like Glasgow in Scotland, Birmingham, Manchester , Liverpool, Newcastle , and East London, England.
