I reside in the Bronx and as time has gone by there has been changes along the way. Some may seem like things are getting better but when you actually take the time to. see, it really isnt .In the text we read about graffiti well it can be hypocritical to boroughs thats have large community in street art. Many places in the Bronx community are filled with such great art , which is known as graffiti. In the article graffiti is shown to be ghetto its criminalized, but yet now in this time there are art exhibitions with street art which is very contradicting. First its said to be wrong but then portrayed differently. But of course the only difference is that the art from the Bronx is made up by anyone in the community , and the art in the exhibitions is made up by non low income class people. Not only that but around where I live there have been many small changes. There are buildings being made down my block , all modernize and brand new. It may seem like the neighborhood is improving but at what cost. The building has very nice interior, the lobby has nice marble floors . Includes washer and dryer in the unit, dishwasher also , big nice windows. This all seems very good for the neighborhood, but with that being done rent is going up and the people who cant afford it will have to start looking elsewhere.
