“‘We Just Want Our Community Back:’ Long Islanders Upset”

We all want the whole damn country back. Trump is working on it.

We have a medium size apartment building in our community. It's been there for decades.

Never any problems. The building was just a neighborhood background fixture.

Then it was sold.

It quickly filled with section 8 renters and it changed overnight.

Windows and doors broken. Screens pushed out and slapping in the wind so people could sit at the windows and look out. Trash everywhere. A TV tossed out a window. Rolling desk chairs and easy chairs let out in the rain.

They would crowd in front of the building all day. People who stopped at the red light would stare and their jaws would drop.

I dubbed it 'Little Zimbabwe'.

Luckily we had a strong community and pressured the city to take action.

One bad property can potentially destroy a neighborhood within weeks.

Also had a stabbing at a house two blocks away. Lots of houses went up for sale after that one event.

Elections and apathy have consequences.
