Bronx Residents being overrun by tourists visiting #jokerstairs

tourism is huge where i live so i know how irritating it can be. there’s an area where i like to take the fam to fish and swim and since IG, people like to come by and take pics there. makes parking more difficult and there have even been times where people ask if my son could move over so he won’t be in the pic and i always tell em nah. this is the spot:

and then there are the numerous hiking spots that are overrun with tourists. the trails can’t sustain high levels of foot traffic and they get ruined like this:

I will never understand this goofy behavior.
 
u are aware people literally live on that block right? its not a set in tinsletown, im sure if people photographed outside ur window all day you'd be annoyed.

You are aware theres thousands of places just like that in the world where people live and tourists are amuck outside?

Cmon man. :lol:

Do we really have to start naming them? Lombard Street in SF, id be damned if I lived on that street.
 
Number one there be way too many steps to be walking up and down. If you need to ride up that monolith to get home everyday bruh you doing it wrong. Number two so folks wanna come to your place and see something that’s cool right now. Great. Tolerate the opportunity by encouraging them to stay and transact with ya businesses rather than forcing them out. Folks out here not knowing how to take advantage of basic economics. KSteezy needs to be out there charging dudes $5 a photo.
 
:lol:

I remember when Banksy the artist drew a portrait in East New York or somewhere and dudes was charging people to take a picture with it.

You don't like it... move.

OR

You can do something about it. E.g. go to city council and file a complaint to make it a restricted area or something ridiculous.


Not surprised they been gentrifying this great city for years , Bronx already starting to look like the new Brooklyn in some places

Nice....
 
I heard supposedly cops wouldn’t even let local residents chill or loiter on them steps
But now that the white folks coming and taking pictures
They don’t say anything to them about it
