where i live

I live in the borough queens. Raised in woodhaven new york. Queens is near by ozone park, Richmond hill, hollis and queens village.  Where i live,  the noise from train tracks wake you up. A place where everyone knows each other, grown up together.  Kids playing ball or man hunt in the street, Grown scary looking men in front of the cover stores barking at young girls. A neighborhood mostly filled with spanish people.  Where the oldest woman on the block tells us young kids what our neighborhood looked like back then in the 50's and 60's. The streets or woodhaven arent the cleanest yet they aren't the dirtiest.

I've down research on my neighborhood, and found out it use to be a trackrace called union course.  before it became a track race it was a farming place at first when the Europeans came over.

                                          this is the front of elementary school I attended.


heres  the link to a video a lady made for her friend that moved, to show her the change in the neighborhood.
