When Would You Want To Live In New York?
by Zoe Day
If you could live in New York in any era, when would it be? Working Class hit the streets with the good old Duraflex camera to see what people in Brooklyn had to say.

Jahmal
"78' or 79', back when the foundations and key elements of hip hop were being laid."

Carla
"When the settlers first arrived here. To see the landscape before it was so completely transformed forever by man."

Mark
"The 20's. It would be cool to experience prohibition, and the jazz. Plus the fashion was great back then."

Trish
"The 1800's because I like horses."

Will
"The 80's when artists like Basquiat were here."

Susie
"Late 60's... Martini lunches, and Camel straights at the office."

Aaron
"The forties because of all the G.I. movement going through the city. It was a time when America was coming out of it's isolalation, and everyone looked pretty damn dapper back then."

Giuliana
"The 80's so I could hang out in the Lower East Side without all the tourists."
