I feel like the whites are too bright and overpowers the blacks.

Just an opinion, if you really want to shoot in black and white, shoot film, but as @argentina said the colours are too strong and overlap each other.
Looks like something out of the jason bourne movies

Hey thecamwars and Argentina,

Thanks a lot for the valuable tip, I'll sure work on that. Also I would like to add that it was taken from a phone so the control was very less and post processing was ruining it. Tips?

There are some dslr apps on the play store for you phone that dont mess with post processing, your default camera app already enchances the photo is what your saying?
Not much to say that hasn't, film is just better for B&W. Not bad all in all, my only issue is how the Moped fits in. Generally with black and white, the transition from black to white and vise versa is a huge part of how the image flows. The alley has great flow but then the Moped, a huge blob of darkness, just cuts through the transition to lighter colors.
