  • Black Harlem doesn’t have to put a fork in it. Harlem will always be black just with more of diverse. I do feel that after the prices go up even more, there will be no need for others to come from lower Manhattan.

  • Man, they’re already going after the Bronx! Jeez! There really is nowhere left to run.

  • RE: Exodus? It’s over – Black Harlem? put a fork in it. It’s just a matter of having the rent stab & rent cont die off. Harlem 2020? 10% Black at most. Not a good or bad thing, just a thing. The scandanavians had their time, the jews had their time, and the Blacks had their time, however don’t kid yourself, it’s over.
