Bay Ridge Research Paper

Andersonville was a Confederate prison built in 1864 at Andersonville, Georgia. It was designed to hold Union prisoners of war during the Civil War. It was official named was Camp Sumter, however it’s better known as Andersonville. It was built from the ground up by local slave labor. At the time it was 10 ½ acres long and designed to hold about 10,000 men. The camp was enclosed out of 15 to 17 inch hewed pine logs. Along the walls were guard towers (referred to as pigeon roosts by the inmates) placed every 90 feet around the stockade walls.

In Streetwise, Elijah Anderson (1990) discusses the social forces at work in an urban area he calls the Village-Northton. His is a sociological field study of the daily interactions between the residents of an area encompassing two communities--in his words, "one black and low income to very poor (with an extremely high infant mortality rate), [and] the other racially mixed but becoming increasingly middle to upper income and white" (Anderson, 1990, p. ix). In keeping with valid sociological fieldwork, Anderson (1990) immersed himself in the community from the summer of 1975 through the summer of 1989.

Over the years, Bensonhurst has diversified and experienced a remarkable amount of change, especially in terms of the population. Bensonhurst’s diversity is not limited to just those particular ethnic groups mentioned above, there are also a lot of Albanians, Mexicans, Puerto Ricans, and more.  According to the statistics of the residents in Bensonhurst & Bath Beach Puma, NY, the most common country of origins is China, Ukraine, and Italy (“BENSONHURST & BATH BEACH PUMA, NY,” n.d.). While, there is a high relative number of people born in Belarus, Azerbaijan, and Uzbekistan. Whereas the most common race or ethnicity is white, Asian, and then Hispanic (“BENSONHURST & BATH BEACH PUMA, NY,” n.d.). This once again reinforces the idea that the authenticity of Bensonhurst is changing, considering the Italian population is no longer as prominent and predominant over other ethnic groups. New residents are replacing former residents and thus, causing a lot of diversity and modification. Currently, Bensonhurst, for the most part, is divided based on ethnicity. The 18th Avenue section is highly populated with Asians, whereas the “northern blocks, adjacent to Borough Park” are popular with Orthodox Jews (Mooney, 2011). The southern blocks, near the ocean as well as the Bath Beach part are popular with Russians. The division based on ethnic groups suggests a restrictive kind of mentality in which people would rather stick with their own ethnicity rather than engage and reside with those

Before the 1880s, the are of eastern Brooklyn that was to become Brownsville was known as New Lots. This territory was primarily farmland, but it was also the location of the city’s largest waste dump, as well as the site of several facilities that supplied stone and other building materials. In its early history, New Lots had a diverse population. English and Irish settlers, Jewish immigrants, and a small number of African-Americans farmed the land. Others were attracted to the area by the open space and relatively fresh fresh air it provided. Brownsville at one time was a place for waste-disposal, a tenement slum, a haven for Jews before they were accepted, the cradle of a major crime origination, a testing-ground for public-housing and

Before getting into the case of Ocean Hill-Brownsville, Podair begins by discussing how the New York population became so divided in the first place. After WWII ended in 1945, the industry landscape shifted from on one that mainly relied on manufacturing to one contrived of service occupations. As a result, there was a plummet in the demand for low education labor, and a spike in the desire for workers with higher education. Resultantly, black communities were marginalized and jobless. Similarly, housing constraints and de facto segregation lead to mainly black neighborhoods, leading to neighborhoods that provided abysmal education for its local youth. A region in the Bronx that epitomized this lackluster educational system is the schooling system of Ocean Hill-Brownsville.

“I am sick - discontented - and out of humor. Poor food - hard lodging - Cold Weather - fatigue - Nasty Cloaths - nasty Cookery - Vomit half my time - smoak’d out of my senses - the Devil’s in’t - I can’t Endure it - Why are we sent her to starve and freeze…” (Waldo, 1777) The American soldiers spending the winter at Valley Forge suffered in the bad conditions. During that winter, the disease “small pox” attacked a large percentage of the soldiers in Valley Forge, causing them to die. As a result, many soldiers left or fled from Valley Forge. Would you have quit? An American soldier at Valley Forge should not have quit. This is because they should fight for their independence,realize that they have a high chance at survival, and both Washington

Techniques- Facilitated Dialogue, with the audience “What are some motives for you leaving one place or another?”

In Valley Forge there is a big war for the capitol. I usually have no shoes but this time I am staying. It is cold and no meat. No Meat! No Meat! (Waldo,151). With the congress supporting and the army needing healthy men would you have quit? I would have stayed.

In Bay Ridge, 77.25% of the workforce is private wage and salary workers, with 21.62% employed in the educational, health, and social service fields (Zip Atlas, 2017). The median household annual income is $44,518, which is slightly below the city average of $45,836.75 (Zip Atlas, 2017). The average income per member of household, however, is at $20,143.89 in Bay Ridge, which is above the citywide average of $17,915.48 (Zip Atlas, 2017). This difference can be attributed to the average household size that is lower in Bay Ridge (2.21) when compared to New York City (2.56) (Zip Atlas, 2017). Despite the average values, 19.28% of the neighborhood population reside in the $50,000-74,999 income bracket (Zip Atlas, 2017).

The South Bronx is an area filled with rich culture and unique qualities. For the past 50 years, it has seen many changes from the shift in ethnicity to the rapid growth in the immigrant population. Commonly known as the “Boogie Down”, the South Bronx has had its reputation for being the birthplace of hip-hop. With the widespread increase of Blacks and Hispanics in the community, the South Bronx has moved from Blacks being the minority of Whites being the minority. This ethic is due to numerous factors that will discuss, in order to see why people have chosen to make in and out of the South Bronx neighborhood of Parkchester. A census conducted throughout the past years will emphasize on the numeric values of this change. Additionally, it

Even in the 90’s the figures suggest that whites consisted of over two thirds of the population in Dover, however ten years later in 2000 Latinos consisted of over 77% of Dovers population whereas only 19% white. In the analysis Dover symbolizes how the whites in the neighborhood lacked the loyalty that the citizens of Beltway had for their community, fleeting at the first signs of a declining neighborhood and not sticking around to defend it. Although this aspect of the study seems to be racist and condescending, signaling out hispanics moving into a community as the result of a decline, Wilson and Taub support their assertions by suggesting class. Race is tightly infused with class, and it would be an analytical mistake to discuss race relations in Dover without accounting for the overlap between race and class” (Kindle Location 1205). They also seem to assert that Dover was a falling community once the industries shut down, leaving most of the whites in the area either poor and on fixed income or rich and fleeting. The poor that did not leave the community became apart of the decline in the city, as well as the majority of impoverished hispanics

Montreal’s Mango Bay is a unique and popular dining establishment, known for its fresh and authentic Caribbean dishes served in a welcoming and vibrant setting. The perfectly spicy chargrilled jerk chicken salad served with crisp greens and tomatoes makes a most welcoming meal starter. Some of Mango Bay’s specialty entrée dishes include the curry goat slow-cooked in Caribbean spices, the ackee fruit and salt fish plate, the fried whole red snapper in a Jamaican-spiced gravy sauce and the island chicken fajitas, all of which are seasoned to perfection. Handhelds, like the vegetable wrap and the jerk chicken burger, are a favorite among diners for their elevated flavors.

It was just another windy day on Teague bay, when all of the high school sailing team decided they wanted to sail 29ers. Teague bay is a wonderful place to sail, it's protected by a reef, there's plenty of wind, and it's the perfect depth. There is only one flaw, the dreadful sunken ship lurking a foot below the surface. 29ers are the fastest youth sailing boat in the world, making them very hard to Control, especially when it's windy. We happened to have a foreign coach from the states helping out therefore he had no idea of the sunken ship. He set up a course that was a trap. The uninformed coach put the leeward mark directly on top of the sunken ship, which had a recipe for disaster. My brother and I, unaware of the booby trap, attempted
