The most prevalent change to our old Bronx neighborhoods like yours on Claflin Avenue has been the proliferation of security gates and doors and window bars. There was a 70s movie whose name I don't recall about city dwellers who are essentially imprisioned in their apartments due to the armies of criminals roaming the streets at night. It was sadly quite prescient. The poverty of today is terribly different from what we lived through in the 50s.
