Dropsie Avenue: The Neighborhood

Pages rotated correctly and OCRed.
A black-and-white graphic novel chronicle of the rise, decline, and
rebirth of a neighborhood in the South Bronx over the course of more
than one hundred years.
There is an overarching
plot but no clear single arc except that of the life-cycle of a
neighbourhood, its deterioration and renewal. In the form of chronicles,
most tales only last few pages, however there are multiple core
characters whose stories are spread throughout. The chronicles tell
about life, problems, and solutions about inter-ethnic and other
socioeconomic relations of residents of Dropsie Avenue in New York City.
One common plot revolves around 'old' residents bemoaning the arrival
of 'newer' residents and frictions caused by it.
