Not to mention there were plenty of break-ins and vandalism on my home and neighbouring homes.

I live right next to the area in question, and alot of that #### still goes on today. Add knifings and shootings to that list as well, I've seen them.
I don't want to sound brash either, but the area needs to be 'dealt' with if anyone catches my drift. Just because there's low-income housing in there doesn't mean we should feel sorry for them and halt future developments. It's an incredibly sketchy area.
