The one thing in common in all of these hoods is that they are all food deserts, there are no other businesses in the community except for food & liquors, check cashing spots, liquor stores, beauty supply shops, jerk chicken, and the church. But then you drive a few miles North or East and you're in the US's biggest and most commercial downtown area besides Midtown Manhattan and that's the Loop. If you're an entreprenuer you see the lucrative opportunity for growth and development in these areas.

Video start off in the West Englewood neighborhood on 69th & Ashland which is Derrick Rose's old neighborhood as I was raised in Englewood. Oblock (Parkway Gardens) is in the Woodlawn neighborhood and relatively small that starts at 6300 block of S King Dr to 6400 block of S Calumet (half a block) to 6500 block of S King Dr to 6600 block of S Calumet (half a block) starting at timestamp 3:29-4:19. Cheif Keef never lived in Parkway Gardens. He lived 6253 S Michigan AVE in St Edmunds Village (called the white building) on the 23rd of 24 floors which overlooks Oblock. He lived directly one apartment east next door to me.

Moving people out of the projects and forcing them all together in the outskirts of the city assuming all the different gangs would just start getting along was brilliant.
