Grew up on View Street. Growing up it was a bad neighborhood but it has definitely improved over the years. There are still a few parts that get rough, but that’s in every city anywhere. There’s a house on View that gets shot up at least once a year, but that’s gang related activity and not a random event.

Best advice I can give is always continue to stay vigilant, as you should anywhere you go.

Pizzeria Delight will always be my favorite. They have what they call a J&S Special and it’s all the things that shouldn’t be on pizza, thrown on pizza. It’s delicious.

I’ve had some of the woo juice before. Delicious!

Yes, but this time I’ve actually seen them doing the work and talked to the employees about it coming.

Hold strong my friend. Verizon Fios will be here soon haha

My friends nephew was shot and killed in his car on Bell Hill. No gang affiliation, no street beef, was dropping off food for an in-law. Took a bullet to the back and side of the head. I grew up in that neighborhood, don’t sugar coat things for people, it’s not a good area. Used to hoop there all the time and some guy had knife pulled on him mid game. Granted this could happen anywhere and has also happened at the Vernon courts too. Such is life, wish everybody could just stand back and take a breather.

Nobody asked what the record is?! WHATS THE RECORD?!

As long as they’re not using them late at night. It is what it is. I don’t enjoy the sound of them either but people do indeed have the right to use leaf blowers. Especially if you have a huge yard. Wet rotting leaves are a welcome mat for termites and other bugs. Along with a ton of other problems. I always bag them and take them to the yard waste places. People that are putting them into the streets right now is annoying. They haven’t gotten signs up about it yet.

As for the noise of it, that’s city life. Cities are loud. There are a million other noises that are problematic, but the sound of a leaf blower for an hour isn’t going to hurt. The only way to avoid it is to live far away from other neighbors or have a large plot of land where there aren’t any trees around to drop leaves.

A majority of the gas lights are on Institute Road near the Doherty end. There’s also one across from the VA that’s falling over.
