Lovely Garden 'Hood: The South Bronx


I can't get the URL below to go hyperlinky properly, but this is a great story of local stalwarts reclaiming the worst street of 'the worst slum in America', standing fast for what was right against 'expert' outsider notions, and making a charming, clean, safe suburb of individual family homes in what had been a burning Gehenna (Charlotte Street, the South Bronx).  A truly wonderful story.  Those who effected it ought to be given the Medal of Freedom.  Copy and paste this whole URL to your taskbar and click 'Go':
