The West End

Sharing A Legacy of Resilience

The West End

Genia Behanan

I grew up, I came up in Forest Park. I ended up going to several other areas, but when I came to the West End, I was well up in age. I think I probably was like maybe 45 because I'd be 60 this year. And I resided at Stanley Rowe for fifteen years. I moved to Stanley Rowe September 9, 2009, and at that time I liked it. I didn't want to live in the West End, but I needed somewhere to stay and it was quite comfortable. I mean, the people around, it was like a senior citizen building. And the last five years has been like just a mixed building, but in the West End, I like the West End because it's more, you can get the stores easily before they took all our stores. So now I'm just trying to resign to somewhere better. But the best thing I really like to stay in as far as different, low-income housings. That picture represents the West End. I don't know, it's a nice building to live in. It's not no slumlord in there. I don't know, they say they're going to tear it down now and if they rebuild it, I would move back in.
