This is truly an amazing photo: The Long Island Motor Parkway (AKA Vanderbilt Parkway) in 1908 with the Manhattan skyline in the background. Built in 1908 and running from Queens to Ronkonkoma, Long Island, historians have called it the first road in the country built specifically for automobiles. The privately built toll road featured overpasses and bridges with a toll of $2 when it opened – limiting the roadway for wealthy men wishing to race their new cars. The parkway was closed and absorbed by the state in 1938. Part of the trail still exists as a bike trail in Queens. #longislandhistory #brooklyn #longislandmotorparkway #longisland #brooklyn #robertmoses #vanderbiltparkway #longislandexpressway #lie #bqe #brooklynqueensexpressway #nyhistory #hychistory #urbanism #urbanplanning #thepowerbroker #architecture #urbandesign #cityplaning #urbanplanning #vanderbiltmansion #ronkonkoma (at Queens, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfrN-ZKOFWz/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Some ways in which Chyna has found self-realization comes from internal strength and stepping outside of her comfort zone. Nonetheless, building confidence from within and surrounding herself with truly talented people have helped her become a difference-
“Even if the wounds heal, the scars left still show.”
-Judas Kiss by Chyna Streetz & Tiona Deniece
Chyna Streetz loves the process. Through various life experiences she continues to learn and grow. Money comes and money goes but lost time on Earth could never be earned back. Abundantly, the hours in the studio and on tour have started paying dividends for this NYC based emcee.
