"she's not dead she's just gone" my mental state for the last 6 months
almost 7 now😳
hahahahaha YES
I read this at the exact second she said it...
It would be really cool to see the people you feature also talk about gentrification if they live in a neighborhood like Bushwick. Like to hear them discuss further how they reckon, acknowledge, or navigate living in neighborhoods where Black and brown folks/families are being displaced and priced out, in favor of young creative 20 somethings like them would be super insightful. As someone who grew up one neighborhood over, it was honestly a little weird when they were talking about what it was like living in Bushwick, gentrification wasn’t mentioned or acknowledged because this is a major topic of discussion in the community. This isn’t to criticize the video, be mean, or anything like that, but hopefully something to consider in future videos!
Thank you!
Completely agree! Bushwick was hit really hard by covid too. Might be nice to put the link to donate to something like Bushwick Ayuda Mutua in the description so the audience can contribute to the families left behind without resources in this rapidly gentrifying neighborhood.
Exactly! Especially from a creator who claims to be about “ethical living”. Gentrification has hurt so many longterm and lifelong NYC residents, especially in previously predominantly minority communities.
Yes... exactly as a Bk native gentrification is a major issue. All the residents who’ve been living in these areas all their lives are all of a sudden moving out of neighbors that “young creatives” move into. Long term residents/ natives in Bushwick and lots of other neighborhoods are suffering because when a new person moves into their predominantly black/Latin neighborhood rent prices sky rocket, leaving these residents unable to afford to stay in their homes where they’ve lived all their lives. Don’t get me wrong your video is good, but this is something that you should consider when making these videos or at least acknowledging this topic.
Totally agree. My family is from queens and I often get nervous about this too. Gentrification displaces people from their homes they’ve known for years due to rent raises. It happed to my aunt who lived between park slope, Brooklyn and sunset park. Gentrification led to her building being bought and the rent nearly tripling literally. I really enjoyed this video ,but mentioning a neighborhood like bushwick like that should’ve come up.
I have lived in bushwick my entire life and honestly years ago no one would even step foot into bushwick because of the rep it had. I love my neighborhood despite how gentrified it has become . It sucks that it took a bunch of outside natives to see change. I live in the same area this video is filmed & it is very family oriented. This area was dominated by puertoricans & to see that majority of my fellow neighbors have been pushed out by gentifiers who don’t really know the culture behind bushwick is kinda frustrating. For them to say that rent is affordable is insane & is the exact reason why my neighbors can no longer afford to live here. Over $3000 in rent is not affordable if you need to have several roomies to cover the cost. Majority of these landlords won’t even rent to families with children because they would 1. rather rent to these “artsy” gentrifiers & 2. A 2-3 bedroom for a family of 5 (small kids included) will be way too expensive for a single mom or just working class ppl ingeneral. It’s mind blowing. As a bushwick native it hurts, before moving into a neighborhood please try to learn & educate yourself on the culture. It’s not just a “vibe”
exactly
totally agree. How could they call something affordable when it takes 3 adult women with well paid jobs to make rent? Would either of them be able to live on their own and still live the lifestyle they are accustomed? If the answer is no then it is not affordable. I’ve lived in Bushwick all my life and the “culture” that ppl speak of when moving to Bushwick is all but wiped out and replaced by your own “culture”. But then again we should be use to your Colonizing tendencies.
Not from ny but the same is happening in Houston. Rent has tripled and a lot of people that now live here are people that originally moved here for “cheaper” living not to mention they stay talking crap of the city! And yea they only live in certain areas bcus of the “vibes” it’s annoying. And I agree these grown women with decent paying jobs living in a crowded space ..I could never.
Yup live there all my life and can’t even afford to live there anymore had to move to the Bronx
Hit the nail on the head. I’ve been here ten years and the changes I’ve seen are bittersweet. But I spent my 20s in bushwick and wouldn’t have had it any other way.
Ooooh so excited for this series!!
Ah hello! So stoked to share more :)
same!!!
Yes!!
me too!!!
@@ElenaTaber Yea, I'm super stoked to see more gentrifiers as you profit on showing them off!
Cannot wait for more of this, thoroughly enjoyed. As someone who lives in England, I always find NYC apartments so fascinating! So I am pumped for this series 🙌
omg wow HIIIIIIII I LOVE YA
Sam Elle HIIII
Hiii grace love u
Omg it’s grackle 💕
GRACE :D
Hey Elena! I was wondering if you could find a way to address displacement and gentrification in this series. I rarely see creators discuss this topic which seems like a major oversight, especially in a place like New York City. Maybe you could connect with an anti-gentrification organization or briefly talk about a neighborhood's history.
Hey Mikala! Thank you for addressing this- I definitely didn’t mean to sidestep the issue of gentrification, so I will be sure to address it in further videos for areas like this. That’s a great idea about making some connections with organizations that support the local community (researching some to add to the description now!) & will for sure further research the history of any other neighborhoods I feature to make sure I do it justice!
@@thekiwisqu33z34 lifestyle channels can talk about this stuff buddy, gentrification literally directly effects things such as a lifestyle
@@thekiwisqu33z34 dude,chill the fuck out. We get it,you could give 2 shits about people actively helping displace poor families into poverty. Go bitch to someone else about it cuz crying to me isn't gonna make me think any differently about them talking about gentrification
@@thekiwisqu33z34 if you really think that a channels mood being dampened a bit to a very small portion of viewers is more important than homelessness than you're just a scumbag,and why should I listen to anything someone like you has to say if you value the mood of TH-cam channel more than humans lives?
This is a stupid idea. The series is about DESIGN, ffs.
I grew up and have lived in Bushwick all my life. Videos like this are bittersweet, I'm happy to see people enjoying and finding beauty in the neighborhood I live in but it saddens me to know that many of us who grew up in Bushwick may not be able to afford to stay there.
If you owned an apartment and the revenue from the rent meant the difference on your life (e.g. being able to send kids to college), you TOO would want higher income residents, and being able to increase the rent. Supply and demand, eh?
@@paveladamek3502 if your tenants are the sole providers of your income then you shouldn’t be a landlord. Owning an apartment building and being someone else’s landlord is a luxury not a right.
Same here in Hawaii. A lot of locals and native Hawaiians can’t afford rent let alone median single family house prices of almost $1M! Many move to the “mainland” like Vegas etc.
Their place is amaaaazing!! Not only are the bones of the place great, but they know how utilize the space and city and have made it reflect who they are as individuals. Such a rad series, Elena!
$3150 for 3 with a patio in NYC is a pretty solid deal if you ask me. Definitely wouldn't consider that "super expensive", we had a ~$3700 similar apartment for 3 people my last two years living in Boulder CO!
It’s because it’s a newly gentrified neighbourhood. It will be super expensive soon
Well, Boulder is very desirable too. It has tons of institutions, many very educated people live there working in research, academia and technology, it has hiking, biking etc. If I could pick between Boulder and NYC, I would pick Boulder.
You paid 3700 for a month or for a year??
@@Queen-f22 ...A MONTH!!!!!!!!!
I dont mean any offense, but I really wish you guys talked about the recent and rapid gentrification of Bushwick, because as friendly and nice and incredibly sweet (they really do seem sweet) your friends are, it kind of irked me that there was no mention whatsoever of gentrification and their participation in it. I remember going there two years ago, and I was shocked by the clear divide between those who still lived in poverty and the privileged people buying and renting out apartments. In the span of two blocks, you see houses that look like they are crumbling right next to luxury apartment complexes. I was just so perplexed as to how anyone can feel comfortable moving there because of their cheap rent, knowing that they possibly contribute to gentrification and later, the displacement of people that lived there their whole life.
Obviously, gentrification is such a large and complex theme and subject, and I know that recognition wont do much for the actual problem, but I find that the ommission of it is kind of dangerous and a bit ignorant.
But thats only my opinion, Im not a new yorker or someone from bushwick.
Yes!! Thanks for commenting, I agree it’s super important to have a discussion about, especially when these videos are aimed at people thinking of relocating to NYC.
Its not the fault of people who are looking to relocate to NY - your energy and comments should be aimed at Landlords, city council, and local government members that control the buildings, planning, zoning, and development. When you say " I don't mean to offense" then target these lovely people wanting to live and work in NY it just comes across as passive-aggressive and envious
@@sterlingmarshel6299 Literally what about this criticism makes it "envious"? You can criticize landlords and local governments for being the root cause of gentrification while simultaneously asking wealthier inhabitant to reflect on their privilege and their active contributions to the issue. I'm so tired of this "you're just jealous" rhetoric.
wtf, the world is always moving gentrification is such b*lls**t, expansion is the only solution to a city like NY.
@@sterlingmarshel6299 You are right, the city has more vacant spots than the population within NYC. They are left as investment pieces by wealthy people. BUT I think residents who newly move into certain neighborhoods should take responsibility of at least knowing the history, residents/neighbors, and how you'll influence the neighborhood.
Their spot is so freaking dope!!! I love that the train passes through, also what a great view. Allison's room is beautiful, definitely getting room inspiration ideas.
absolutely cannot get over the layout and design of this apartment. so eclectic and homey and inviting and just all the things I want in my dream apartment.
I think you've just taken your channel to a whole new level!!!!! Just when I thought it couldn't get better than it already has been. I loved this video it's so dynamic and the apartment is beautiful!!!! Also the girls did an amazing job showing it... Can't wait to watch more of this, I'm really excited
This video was INCREDIBLE! Your friends have such remarkable style and their Bushwick apartment is so unique. I love the way they've styled their bedrooms and was inspired by the mirror walls and disco balls. What a cool way to maximize the light! Not to mention, the price they're paying for that space, especially with all the amenities is really outstanding! Happy to see young women thriving in a city they love! Can't wait for more from this series!
wow i love the vibes in this video! i love watching nyc apartment videos, it gives me such inspiration on how to decorate my own apartment! however, i wish you would have touched on the gentrification of areas like bushwick. as someone who lives in brooklyn myself, gentrification is something that is constantly on my mind and it really makes me think about how i live day to day. i think it would have been something really interesting and important to bring up, especially to hear how the girls living in this apartment support the community that was here before them. i don't think you intended to skip over this issue, but it was weird to not see it mentioned at all. i think it's a really big discussion people in the city are having right now, so i hope you can include it in a future video in the series, or maybe even a follow-up video on this specific apartment!
Thank you so much for bringing this up!
youre the most thoughtful and creative NYC content creator/youtuber ive come across. i can see your hard work through your videos, elena. keep up the great work.
- from across the globe
I LOVE this idea! I'm always impressed with how you come up with new ways to keep your content fun and exciting. Really looking forward to your global "within" NY series, as well!
you are SO PRETTY, oh my gosh. also i love that you added the time stamps/chapters, THANK YOU. this apartment is so cute!
Can't wait to see more neighborhoods, such a fun video!! Also gained so much inspiration from the way Allison styled her room!
That first apartment in Bushwick - it would look SO much bigger if they all didn’t have so much STUFF!
Yup organized chaos
I'm a nurse and always wonder how life would be in NYC so thanks for the video series!!! Also, a suggestion: it would be very interesting to know a little bit of the story behind each neighborhood, what makes them unique and different from each other😊💕
This is inspiring me to want to make more interior videos! Wow major inspo and that DECK is such a luxury! The mirrors, the plants, the sunshine--gorgeous!
This is the series that anyone that has ever wanted to move to New York NEEDS! I love it
I am in love with this apartment and the vibes. I normally like more the modern minimalistic style but this is so amazing. My dream of NYC just got expanded
This is going to be one of my favourite series here. I mean everything you make here is amazing but this is just so so cool. Also ... Girllll the cinematography on this one. 😍✨ can't wait for more.
"our old roommate; she's not dead, she's just gone" LOOL
The mirrors are so great! They fit perfectly in the wall and look like waves. I've seen theese mirrors a lot, but arranged in vertical direction (never liked that), but horizontally is the best idea, love it!
Okay the amenities and outside space deff makes this apartment worth it !
Love how everyone decided to decorate their rooms and have it shows their individual styles
me: ahh just the content i need
also me: broke, living on the other side of the world and never even been to the us
you & me both sis
@@berrekarakus7208 where are you from?
US is overrated :) There are wonderful affordable cities all over the world!
I live in Europe and I got to live close to NYC last year as an exchange student. I fell in love with the city and tbh this series is making me wanna go back and live there even more!
This apartment literally gave me chills. I am LIVING for this series!!
This is insane gentrification. I'm not from NYC but from Long Island. But I've grown up going to NYC, specifically Harlem, Washington Heights, and Bushwick. These neighborhoods often have their own special culture/community. When affluent people like yourself move to these areas, you disrupt this culture, often raising rents leading to many POC and/or poorer residents being forced to move out. The video itself was lovely, but this acknowledgment would have been nice.
PS: to all the new yorkers, if i have said something inaccurate please let me know and I'll fix it ASAP! :)
Everything you said is correct. That's why I'm persuing an Urban Planning career. It's not bad to develop a neighborhood, buy it's wrong to overlook the original inhabitants and push them out. Hopefully I can get to work on policies that will protect the minorities who live in these spaces. But all in all, nice apartment!
(Others responding to this comment... please be nice, I'm only 19🤗)
This is the same argument used by anti immigrant groups in Europe just repackaged. Communities and culture shift in cities. Bushwick was historically a working class German and Italian neighborhood before Latinos moved in and changed the cultural landscape. Harlem was originally a Jewish and Italian neighborhood before the great migration of black Americans from the south in the early 20th century. Generations of New Yorkers have seen shifting demographics and the loss of “their own special culture” in their neighborhoods, cities are not meant to be stagnant. That being said, affordable housing needs to be built in places like NYC and that goes straight to local government, and why voting in local elections is so important
Love this kind of video! It’s a fun way to get to look into peoples spaces and to also get to know people who live in New York 👌🏻❤️
This is an INCREDIBLE apartment!! Can't wait for more of this series!
so cute how you found a way to show other peoples spaces and make content with ur friends. great idea!
Bushwick!!! Last time I visited NYC, I had an airbnb just between Bushwick and Stuyvesand Heights around the corner of the police and fire station and I really enjoyed
What an incredible space these ladies have! I just love NY... can’t wait until I can come back to visit ❤️
Beautiful, engaging video Elena!! Well done! Looking forward to the rest!

I LOVE seeing apartments in different places!!! Especially places that are just as/more expensive than Boston (it makes me feel better about how much I pay 😅)
This is probably one of my favorite video on your yt channel !
I like their dresses. Totally not on topic but that's where I'm at.
i’m obsessed with this series already
it would be cool for y’all to ask how you can balance contributing back to the community you’re inhabiting. The issue isn’t solely gentrification, it’s the fact that many new gentrifiers look to take experiences rather than actively contribute to the history of the neighborhood.
How do you contribute back/reduce my impact on gentrification? I want to live in NYC however I want to give back to the native community.
@@yikesbitch6223 shop locally, i was born and raised here in bushwick 10 yrs ago this neighborhood was really bad, alot of crime like down the block where i live a man dismembered his gf in his apt and 2 blocks down a man got killed and buried n kids paly ground, after gentrification shyt like this stopped happening. Cus alot of those bad ppl moved out. But also good ppl had to move out all of my friends moved to other states cus they couldn't afford rent, I'm lucky i don't pay rent cus my parents own 2 houses so i have an apartment that I share with 2 other guys but i don't pay my share, only bills. And what's really killing the neighborhood is that most ppl that moving in don't really shop locally alot of store have closed cause of that, same with bodega's (Small delis) Alto have closed cause most are latino own and well most ppl moving in don't really shop in those store's so yeah kinda sucks. Only good thing about gentrification is that it needed all the crime in the neighborhood. Sry about my bad english. English not my native language 😅
That outdoor space is amazing, definitely a steal!
I am in LOVE with this series idea!
Yaay great series! Can’t wait for the next episode xx
That apartment is amazing! I'm so excited to see the rest of this series
this was so cool!! i hope you do more videos like this. loved it!!!
Yay! The NYC content we're livin for 🤙🏻
Wow 🤩 luv this ...New York looks like a special kind of energy!🌇🌃
This is the content we need, love !!!
*FABBBULOUS idea....hope for more and just luv annny footage that shows mucho street art* !!
I love this video!! You should def. do some more in the future and make it a series!!
obsessed with this series already 🤍
this is such a cool series also their apartment is GORGEOUS
I hope this is a series!! I LOVED their apartment!
could you interview Allison about Hawaii versus nyc? and both girls about their careers?
Ooo love that idea!!!
Love this
I love the apartment, the interior and the space. I’m excited for this series💓
So so excited for this series!
Magic and trash, Elena's favorite city-living combo 😍 😍 😍
I would watch a million of these videos of your friends showing their homes!
love this kind of content. Love learning the rich history and culture of each neighborhood!
The history and the culture of Bushwick wasn’t even talked about properly to be honest.
yess!!! i love your videos so much, coming from a fellow new yorker
