If you are new to the Ocean View area then it is quite obvious as to its beauty and its hardend inner core. For us locals with a little bit of OV history under our butts then we know even more about its darker side.
There is a up and coming drive called First View Avenue. Mush has been done on this street in this past few years to make it more of an up and coming place. My daily commute to the office take me down this drag multiple times during the day. It is nice to see the changes being made. I also have made some "friends" along the way. The dude at the post office and the little traffic lady at the catholic school.
First View Ave, although quaint and up and coming also has its more sinister side. In the two years in change that I have been prowling its darkened corners, there has been lots of death on this street. Most recently a stabbing. A little more barbaric then the 3 shooting deaths but none the less, another death on First View. So be weary when you travel down Hogans Alley as I lovingly refer to First View Ave. After the FBI's urban shooting range. For your first view of the area might be your last!
