I and my family left the area in 1985. My dad lost his job and we can't pay the bills. We did not squat! My parents were hard working middle class family taxpayers. Lawton St between Puritan and McNichols was called Martin Park near Palmer Park, Pilgrim Village and University District. It was a very beautiful neighborhood until the DEAD [[C)KRAK HEADS from Highland Park took over and turn it into a ghetto. After I have move out There once was a drug house being formed after the owner died and people squatted in there until the city torn it down. There was a drug house on the middle block of Lawton St next to my aunt and her family. The city finally torn it down. There are plenty of vacant and abandon homes in that area today ready for squatting.
