East side has pockets of really cool things, and pockets of really crappy things. I personally can’t stand the South side due to drivers. Everybody got the one side they can’t deal with 😆

@fatboyshadetree78 I live right across the street from this. I came home from my moms sometime after 2 am and there was a fire in the building I got a recording of it on my phone on Snapchat and then after some guy called 911 and they came and put it back out. This one was nothing compared to what it was earlier but it was smoking
