Joey Carrar in the blue button down, word has it that he could knock out anyone back in the day, of course this is going back decades.. and that's Sweat downing the double deuce. :P The glue-sniffing guy has been doing that on the parkside literally since I was a toddler. Some old holdouts right there. :shock:

Yeah they may be repulsive, but at least they have roots here. Would take them over a bunch of exorbitant rent-paying yups any day. :roll:

Joey and the glue sniffer are usually seen outside Luv's candy store on PPW. They jusy keep on going, I think their DNA should be studied, it may help mankind.

seriously, do we think this group of guys would be hanging down here if the shelter weren't down here?

****************************
If you live on 15th between 8th and PPSW there are two reasons why they hang around there .
1-One of the junkies has a family living on your block
2-There was a drug dealer living at 1408 8th ave who was their supplier, the 72nd knew it and did nothing...The dealer was forced to move out when his building was damaged by a reckless builder on 15th st.
He is now doing his business in Sunset Park and it's to far for them to go.

Hamilton: how are these pictures so 'mind boggling' to you?!?

You post the link with that statement, say you had no idea it appeared earlier this year and seem skeptical when I gave you the date, time and header it appeared under...

and to top it all off...

it turns out that the guys who do all this 'mind boggling' stuff 'in the open' are people you can identify by name and tell your stories about.

if you're trying to stir the sh*t, just say so, why do you have to play it so cute?
******************************************************

I first saw it last week it was originally posted by tupelo35 , When I tried to locate your reference date but I couldn't locate it , that is not a challange and far as mind boggling, i don't know where you live ,but I find junkies shooting it up in broad daylight mind boggeling
.[sorry about that]
I live in Windsor Terrace and know who these people are as well as everyone else in the neighborhood does.
I didn't think it was my duty to ID them when I first saw the posting
, not my job .If you check the thread you will see someone else
gave up the name Joey.
I'm not trying to stir up any shit,Your doing a good enough job .

Let me get this straight - as a homeowner, which you claim to be, would you rather rent to the junkies with local roots or the suburb-born white collar family?

How do the landlords make their money in Compton? Or how about the real question, where do these yups find the money to be paying my rent while wandering around 7th Ave with yoga mats at 11am every weekday morning? Hmm..

Me, I'm doing just fine - and will continue to get this paper long after Park Slope is no longer the cat's meow. 8)

The influx of young people into the neighborhood echos the immigrantion of the twenties and thirties when it took multiple tenants to meet the monthly rent,
.The fifties ended that as people started to prosper and extra boarders disappeared.
Well when the shit hits the fan with Wall Street and it will,then the uppity yuppies will probably go back to where they originated

Then neighborhoods will become neighborhoods again

I think comparing dirt-poor European immigrants flocking to tenements here for any work they could find, to starry-eyed 20-something suburban-sitcom-kids flocking here on mom and dad's dole to live out their 'FRIENDS' fantasy is tenuous to say the least.

I don't care how much these people save by living with roommates - going to film or grad school does not pay the rent.

However, I do agree with you that they'll be gone in the not-too-distant future, once their funding runs out.
***************************i didn't mention dirt poor or on moms dole, but they both have the same problem they need help to survive ....Lets change the subject as Brooklynpotter is getting bored and wants to get back to the junkies.got any good junkie stories
