It's really sad what's happened to Philly.

Due to work, I've been up in this area from time to time.  It's truly the worst neighborhood in the city.  Sadly, it's young black males standing on corners, expensively dressed, dilapidated housing, and bombed out factories.

There was a time when this demographic could have been gainfully employed in the now bombed out factories, however, jobs pushing brooms are given to our illegals, manufacturing jobs are done by Chi Com slave labor, and rap music has taught a generation that work is for chumps.

This is the residue.

Sounds like Central Brooklyn, although housing in Bed Stuy is still in better shape than even the white neighborhoods of South Filthadelphia.

Is Grey's Ferry still a Shanty neighborhood (not that there's anything wrong with it Paddy)? ;-)
