    Im thinking about doing biz in the Bronx. (Subway franchisee)
    Everyone has to eat right. What i want to find out is the Bronx coming back, going down or just the same ole...
    Also what parts independantly are doing better than others.
    I have a GM who will be living there. Im having a hard time finding locations here in Ct. and need to branch out.

    Thanks, Dave

    If you're lucky, maybe you can have wedding receptions like White Castle does!

    Hey Bruce, nice to stereotype,,, Unless you live in Princeton or the richest of towns in Bergen County, I'm willing to bet, the part of the Bronx I grew up in is far more affluent and has more expensive homes than where you are in NJ, along with 3 top 10 nationally ranked private schools...

    I've never actually been to the Bronx; however, from what I've heard Riverdale sounds like a nice area.

    Yeah, I live in Manhattan and I've never been to the Bronx, Queens, Staten Island, or Brooklyn...

    The Bronx? Good idea, as long as you can find someone to run it for you who sort of blends in, if you know what I mean.

    However, I agree that the Bronx is moving up: Look who offices there now....

    I have to second the point that ALL of the Bronx is not awful (I too grew up in Riverdale -- 247th St -- and I can assure you that the whole neighborhood is plenty safe) but much the rest of it certainly leaves something to be desired. In fact, even Arthur Ave. is steadily degrading, and isn't the safe-haven it used to be years ago when the "families" made sure it was safe.

    Anyway, I'm curious -- davem -- where were you thinking of opening the franchise?

    Also, kenny -- where did you grow up?

    --Noah

    Noah- I grew up in Riverdale as well and grew up attending Horace Mann on 246th st / Tibett Ave.

    I agree about your statement regarding Arthur Ave. It's a shame a lot of those sections of the Bronx has slowly been degrading,,, I heard sections of the Grand Concourse and those areas were real nice 40- years ago...

    This is a question i've always wanted to ask a student who goes/went to Horace Mann. I went to a private school in Manhattan (The Dwight School) and there was this rumor floating around that Horance Mann had a remarkably high suicide rate because of the tough curriculum and the brutal teachers. Any truth to this or should I submit it to snopes...?

    lesterm- I don't recall any suicides when I was there, but yes it was academically rigorous and it was a pretty cut throat atmosphere... I heard it has gotten more competitive since I left... I graduated in 1991, way before your time.. Things have changed a lot since...
     
  25. Oh let me qualify my earlier remark; I wouldn't enter New York City with just the 82nd Airborne, I'd bring the 101st and probably a few SEAL teams with me as well.
