LIFE: Snapshots of gentrification
After a walk home from the 2/3 train station at Lenox Avenue and 116th Street, I realized that it's official: The transformation of Harlem is complete. Here's proof:
-Spotted on the 2 train approaching the 116th Street stop: A white gay male carrying an arm-load of full, Barneys shopping bags.
-Spotted on the 2/3 train platform leaving the station: Two separate sets of seemingly middle class white parents with babies in strollers.
-Spotted on the corner of 116th and 5th Avenue: A dirty blonde male hipster wearing skintight gray stovepipe jeans and canvas pointy-toed kicks.
