Fordham Rd looks like Downtown Brooklyn before it was gentrified, and it definitely needs a make over to say the least.

Fordham road was my old shopping area when I lived on 184th and Walton. I use to love going to Woolworths, Caldor, Cookies and Elmundo. I never did get the chance to go to Discovery Zone as a kid .

Fordham road will always be around, lots of immigrants live and shop in that area, not to mention they have easy access transportation by train and bus

Fordham Rd is so ugly, but very convenient too. In recent years it's gotten more chain clothes stores at least..Old Navy, American Eagle, Gap.

Nevermind that because most of it is very hilly. The best part of it is going east by Fordham University and along Pelham Parkway (it beomes Pelham Parkway North & South).
