East 228th St, Wakefield

This street appears to be developing. There are sections that appear to be under construction, while the other areas look nice. There are trees planted in various spots along the way. A few buildings look old, but a number of them look new, especially the single family homes.

I do not remember seeing any schools or a day care center.

If you are retired or single, you may like living here.

This area is a bit run down and is definitely not a place I would recommend for living options. The nearby streets capture most of what’s going on in this neighborhood, as this street is mainly residential and is not all that exciting. There are a few small business and things of that nature, but not much to write home about.

This street is chalked full of businesses, churches, and places to eat, and there is a nice vibe and overall comfort and ease to the street. I liked how friendly the people were, and ready and able they were to serve you in the stores, and the unpretentiousness of the people on the streets. All in all it was a very good street, but not really worth a climb into the Bronx, in my opinion.
