so is it a fair assumption to make that all sunnysiders are drunken pompous, homosexual loving, flamboyant wine drinking, booty pirates? do not judge i know a many people in woodside projects that are upstanding citizens. You are all ignorant fools
NOSTRADAMUS KNOWS ALL
Holy shit! I live right around there! I had no idea and never heard no movement.
@sycamore
The woodside houses is the ghetto for a reason. Low income, uneducated and ignorant folks from broken single parent households create the violence. It has nothing to do with race.
Oddly enough, born and raised there.
Never was in trouble, and now making a decent living in NC about to purchase my first home. Doesn’t sound so bad eh? It’s not the neighborhood. Shitty people are gonna be shitty no matter where they are.
Hey, nostra dumb ass….
Stop writing all in caps!!!! it is bad for the eyes.
AND WHY MUST OUR COMMENTS BE MODERATED, WHAT IS THIS NAZI GERMANY? OOH NO ITS MUCH WORSE.. ITS SUNNYSIDE!! I BET THESE WONT EVEN MAKE IT UP HERE EVEN THOUGH I MADE SOME VERY GOOD POINTS AND SOME HUMOROUS COMMENTS.
Sunnyside is full of drunken racists and bigots, oh and hypocrites, full of hatred who like to puff up their chest and start objectify the good people of the internet with their ignorance! Woodside housing projects is hardly considered a “project”in my opinion. My point being is that its not that bad compared to other projects, or sunnyside for that matter, but people want to act like they’re better than everyone else just because they live in a house with wonderful gardens behind them and with their noses high up in the air and heads up their ass so they can savor the smell of their farts LOL
Heard somdthing about a murder on 57 street and 37 avenue woodside houses in 114 precinct
The story is the guy with the knife demanded credit for crack, when the guy with the gun gun wouldn’t give him any the guy with the knife stabbed him then the guy with the gun shot him
I’ve lived here all my life and this is the first time I’ve heard of a murder in the Woodside Houses. This website has listed more murders in Sunnyside than the WH.
The Sunnyside Post seems to have more than its share of racists among its readers.
Why does a 32 year old man pick on an old 50 year old man?????
“Affordable Housing” pretty touchy subject, I am surprised nobody chimed in with a suggestion of moving them to the moon.
Look at all the inconsiderate comments and I still get called a troll?
pack of fools
If one was carrying a gun and another is carrying a knife, they both are probably up to no good. City housing … what else is new.
@ Craic Dealer Shame on you.
All my condolences to the families of the dead man and may the other man recovery quickly.
I’m a moron and I don’t know how to spell and have a second grade education.
where is Al Sharpton on this — oh wait — no money to be made —
Lesson is “don’t bring a knife to a gun fight”
I guess that’s what all the choppers for last night…
R.I.P…
What do you expect in the ghetto?
