Talk:Melrose, Bronx

message: There are problems in geography with this article and Morrisania, which both claim similar borders. In addition, the article claims the Hafen Building as part of Melrose, but then states the southern limit of the neighborhood is East 149th Street. The Hafen Building is south of 149th Street.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 104.162.56.213 (talk) 12:25, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I disagree. The Melrose section of the Bronx is very poor, vacant lots and stripped cars are unfortunately a common site. I feel the photograph has a justifiable presence. Adding a bunch of photographs of renderings does not accurately reflect a community largely of vacant lots, low income public housing projects, tenements, and older run down homes. New low income housing has been built and more is in the planning stages however still much of the community is very desolate.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.247.107.86 (talk) 23:10, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

message: lots of vague statements like "The neighborhood, like the rest of the South Bronx, is plagued by high levels of gang activity, drug use, prostitution, and homelessness."
plus press release statements like "two state-of-the-art juvenile detention centers. Characterized by locks on the doors and other hardware designed to restrict the movement of the residents and protect public safety, the facilities were planned with staff input to enhance residents' overall security, while allowing for quality programming."
