New York building collapse exposes gentrification anger in Black community: "It's just all about making money"

New York, New York - Winston Bowen quietly watched as New York firefighters looked for survivors in the rubble of a collapsed building in Brooklyn, after a deadly tragedy that he blamed on "careless" developers leading rapid gentrification. The 54-year-old's assessment was echoed by others who gathered Thursday opposite the grim scene in Flatbush, a mostly Black neighborhood, where a three-story building plunged into a neighboring excavation site. Investigations have only just begun, but Bowen said he believed the property owners may have cut corners in their plans to construct a nine-story bu...

Whatever Happened to Crazy Eddie Electronics Stores?

For New Yorkers who watched television during the 1970s and 1980s, Crazy Eddie was almost impossible to miss. A fast-talking salesman waved his arms in front of walls of stereos and televisions, promising electronics bargains with a slogan that became part of the region’s popular culture: “His prices are insane!” The commercials ran constantly, and their spokesman was so convincing that many viewers thought they were watching the real Crazy Eddie.

Mangone's: Nearly 80 Years on the Post Road

Not many businesses in Mamaroneck date back to the years just after World War II. Ask Rick Mangone which ones have stood the test of time, and he’ll count them off: Walter’s, Roberts, House of Flowers, Strauch Jewelers and Miller’s. His own family’s story began around the same time. In 1947, his father, Anthony, rented the house behind Walter’s to test the waters with a produce stand. The business took hold, and soon afterward he bought the lot where Mangone’s still stands today. What began as a small produce operation grew into a business selling produce, plants, Halloween decorations, and Christmas trees from the same corner of Boston Post Road.
