    You couldn’t walk through Fort Greeen I’d say around 2001 it started becoming better but before then it was a pure nightmare. Going up Myrtle ave was hell and under the Brooklyn Queens Expressway was too. Glad to see it’s changing even though, I just wished it changed with black people and not the fact that white ppl are flooded there now.
