A neighborhood in South Philadelphia. Generally, the boundaries are from Washington Av on the North, 17-18th streets on the East, and Mifflin on the southern edge. Some consider it down to Snyder Ave on the southern end. It was historically Irish/Italian, but became majority black by the 60s, and was an extremely rough, dangerous place from the 70s on. The last decade or so has seen gentrification and new construction, which has improved the area. It still has another decade or so before one would consider Point Breeze a safe neighborhood. Point Breeze is a tough hood, but the residents are proud to be from there and everyone has grit and heart.
They just built some more condos in Point Breeze, I heard that area is “up and coming”.
Sure, rents are cheaper than the surrounding neighborhoods, but you pay the price of safety instead. Two of my roommates have been robbed walking home.

Get the Point Breezemug. A neighborhood, state of mind, and Lynne's personal boot camp to turn young adults into full fledged alcoholics. Some of the most notable days in Poplar Point history include the great soup heist of 2007, the night james roasted marsh mellows with his ass cheeks, the night Collin intentionally broke a picture frame, and the 10 AM drinking session on St. Patricks day 2008. Most of the stupidity that takes place directly involves Collin who may or may not be asian and mentally handicapped.

Get the Point clare public schoolmug. When somebody makes a valid point that you didn’t think of before you let them know they made a good point by saying “Good point pencil tip!”. Or you can shorten it with GPPT.
Jimmy: Man these noobs keep camping in call of duty
Lane: The map requires stealth, you can’t just run around like a chicken with its head cut off
Jimmy: GOOD POINT PENCIL TIP!

Get the Triple Pointmug. point oh eight or point zero eight stands for 0.08% of alcohol limit. If the officer believes you are at or over the 0.08% limit or under the influence of a controlled substance, he will place you under arrest and read or recite to you that state’s implied consent admonition. That means you are driving under the influence (DUI).
She said:" You can get busted for drunk driving with a point oh eight reading. That's about four shots of straight hundred-proof alcohol in the bloodstream."
