"Twisted Streets and Some Greenery"

E. 208th Street is nothing else but a long three blocks with some greenery on it. Much of the area is clean. And there is a school near the end of it close to Mosholu Pkwy. Otherwise, not much else to report about it. A typical long street that has a beginning and an end.
Pros
  • Very nice looking area
Cons
  • Nothing going on

"Crowded --where's the space"

Okay so I lived here for 2 yrs. So this is not necessarily the nicest place but it is no where near the worst. There is hardly any parking because of the teachers and the doctors. Let me clarify , Two major hospital are about two blocks away and the down the street you have two school. The good thing about living here is that it isnt extremely noisy and there is a playground for the children a block over. Also near here is Jerome avenue in which you have discount store , mc D's , BK, spanish resturant and more. In the other direction you have Bainbridge with a huge park and the same amenities as jerome ave.

"East 208th Street"

There isn’t much on this South Bronx street. I wasn’t very impressed. I didn’t think that it was nice to look at and thought that because the streets around it were relatively convenient, that it would also house the same benefits, but I was sadly mistaken. This may not be the place for the NYC culture you were searching for, but there’s definitely a nice vibe here.
