Talk:Belair-Edison, Baltimore/Comments

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I agree completely with this article. I attended that great Catholic school now being shut down and lived on Brendan and Woodstock Ave my entire childhood. All of my classmates and friends lived in the neighborhood and we could walk to each others houses and not have to worry about getting stuck-up,harrassed, or more extremely, killed. I played sports for the Shrine of the Little Flower at Herring Run Park/surrounding parks and never had to worry about who was hiding in the woods or wat kind of syringe I would find on the bike trails that me and my father use to ride.

I loved that neighborhood and wish it could be the way it was. I would leave where I am right now in a heart beat if it was back to how it used to be. The sad fact is you cant! Fr. Orchick at SOTLF was robbed at the church not more then a couple years ago. Who does that????? Rob a church, and I think it was a collection for the holidays if I'm not mistaken! Schmoke destroyed what was a strong community where everyone knew eachother and would have never thought they would ever have to leave due to fear.

I don't know the whole history, racial make-up or what the population density is or the avg. income blah blah but all of that is irrelevant when the real 'history' etc. is already in the past and it's obvious that the future is bleak. So ontop of writing where it declined, in a little bit of defense, write how it use to be great but no one can tell me there is anything really positive going on there.
