Reach out to Steve Rodriguez on IG. He’s the founder of 5Boro and has become somewhat of an activist for skaters here.. you probably already know this if you’ve been a skater around here for a while but he is definitely the guy who will get you in touch with the people responsible for lighting up our parks

It’s Brooklyn and some of the worst neighborhoods in the whole city. East NY and Brownsville to name 2 really bad areas
EDIT: on the right, mostly due to Jamaica, very bottom right is Far Rockaway, on the left in Manhattan is Harlem and Washington Heights. NE of Manhattan is the Bronx. Basically all low/very low income areas

K-Rock pretty much changed my childhood and I miss it dearly. I won tickets to a Jimmy Eat World/Taking Back Sunday concert in 2005, I went to Clausfest 04 and 05 AND I had the distinction of making Jake & Jackie laugh bc I called in and asked if David Lee Roth eats with his ass (I was 12 and just saw that episode on south park)
Few years later, it became Jack and that’s around the time I stopped listening to the radio

Growing up in LI, the banks were the start/end point of all of our city skate trips. When it was shut down indefinitely, it really sucked bc this truly was/is a spot like no other. This will be a huge W for everyone
