"The middle class is moving in - but the street still lacks"
This is the kind of street you’d expect from New York – the deli, the church (okay, it’s Russian Orthodox, but still a church), the preschool, and the AT&T store. This isn’t Midtown anymore (or even close), so don’t expect too much if you’re visiting for the first time.

"Dingy Drab Street"
I walked up this street for the first time today and I won’t again. It’s really dingy and it looks like it would be a sketchy area at night. Although, it looks pretty safe during the day. There is a Public Housing Complex “projects” a block away. They tend to be unsafe. On the other hand you have Mount Sinai Hospital a block away. So, if you’re in need of medical attention no need to worry.
