I'd bet that most if not all of the residents in the Polo Grounds and Rangel Houses think they live in Harlem since Washinton Heights has a different look, feel and culture.

A robbery victim was apparently doused with gasoline and set on fire in the hallway of a Harlem housing project building early Saturday, investigators said.
Trevor Lyons, 26, was found naked and badly burned in the lobby of a Polo Grounds building at Eighth Ave. and W. 155th St., police said.
Lyons' singed clothes were found on the building's smoky 16th floor, where investigators believe he was jumped about 8 a.m.
Lyons was listed in critical condition at Harlem Hospital

Projects are horrible.

Really anything less than $4000 a month or up on a one bedroom is the projects to me. So many of you "little pocketed people" need to get a grip of yourselves, and your unbridled arrogance. How many people on the board can afford that, without doing something immoral?

For 4,000 a month for a one bedroom it better be in a brothel!

NYC Crime lord are you purposely trolling the board for some particular reason? Since you have so much money...why waste your time chatting with us peasants? Fly to Europe or take your Yacht to the caribbean....surely with all that money you can be doing something better with your time than this...pathetic indeed. Go away.
