Mott Haven Library
2014 Oct 15
Loudest library I've ever stepped foot in and I've lived the worse parts of the Bronx, Manhattan and Queens. The local area kids and teens treat the bottom floor as a playground, video arcade and nightclub (playing music through their cell phones) and the noise is sometimes LOUDER than a schoolyard. Complaints to staff result in literally nothing but a quick "kids quiet down" which lasts about 2 seconds. I'm also pretty sure that some of the staff here will gossip about you to the kids outside should you become aggressive in your complaints. I've caught them doing it more than once. Also, the foul language in there resembles the type of filth you hear outside a parole office.

3 stars because they run pretty long hours.
