Baltimore, where somebody can become some body.

It's legitimately difficult to tell which buildings in this video are abandoned and which ones aren't

[johnh]

Even the cop was walking like a dope fiend

[paulos]

Respect to the people that are still doing their best to maintain the homes... Even just stuff as simple as painting it.

This is the part of Baltimore you don't want to get lost in. Speaking from experience.

I find it amazing how The Wire managed to completely capture the reality of the grittiness of the hoods in Baltimore while telling such compelling stories in this setting

[therealmarkzuckerberg]

I’m watching this video after reading that 23 schools in Baltimore had 0 students that passed math☹️

The most incredible part about these neighborhoods is that you're never more than a mile or two from either skyscrapers or gentrified bubbles with craft coffee shops and breweries on every corner. Really a unique city. Sad to see how closely people can live together while still experiencing such starkly different realities.

I'm from a pretty rough section in Brooklyn, NY and I have never seen anything in the US this bad. There are plenty of tough 'hoods in this country, but nothing like Baltimore. It's sad that there is still so much poverty.

Imagine if you showed this clip to the families who originally built/lived in these neighborhoods

I like how it’s totally unchanged from The Wire 20 years ago

My Buddy and I took the wrong exit going to Cal Ripkens last home game years ago and drove through a couple miles of that craziness. People hanging out of windows naked, a car on fire, music blaring, shady as shit people on every corner, burned out houses. I've been through most parts of DC and it doesn't compare. Baltimore is like another planet.

I really like how he just drives around and shows what it's like without adding a bunch of snarkey commentary like some YouTubers do. They really get on my nerves!

The architecture in many of these historical buildings is incredible, so unique. It's a shame they are in such decay & ruin. Hate to see this, we as a nation bulldoze them down and put up new ugly square boxes. We erase our heritage moving forward & that's shameful.

4:33 second house from the left. The tree is growing from the second story, its roots & other foliage having engulfed the building interior.

The amount of hopelessness and resignation on display is heartbreaking.

We lived in Southeast Baltimore in Curtis Bay and watched the decline hit so fast. The bird (police helicopter) was flying every night. We used to play a game called name that gun when we'd hear gun fire. The first month we were there someone had their head taken off with a shotgun just a block over. As soon as a murder memorial started to go away another would pop up on the side of the road. One year we even rang in the new year as the first murder of the year about a block from our house on Hazel Street. For some reason though I never felt like we were in danger. Everyone on the block looked out for each other. We didn't interrupt the dealer's business, they knew we were straight laced, kept to ourselves and made sure no one messed with us. Kind of odd but I miss that old house. Half the block burned up a few years after we moved and I don't think they even bothered demolishing the ruined rowhouses.

As someone who grew up in a run down part of the U.K., the run down brick built terraced houses look weirdly familiar, most British ones don’t have that many steps up to the front doors though.

This is heartbreaking. Thanks for making and sharing this video. More people need to know the state of our cities in the US.
