Eason-Wood apartments in HP demo'd

[Zaiko]

Lowell,

Thanks for standing up to the pro demo people. I want a radio show or newspaper column called "Do you want to have a city?" If the answer is yes then you fight to preserve, board up and police abandoned buildings. You fight to get the chance to tax yourself to have full blown trains criss crossing the city. You fight for tax credits for brownfields and PR bonanzas like Detroit 1-8-7.

I stepped into that building 3-4 years ago, just in the hair braiding place. Guys like us who lived in Africa have no problem visiting such places. The rest of the structure wasn't all destroyed yet. It was all savable.

That's the problem when you have cities with no police response, you can have a beautiful 1920's building that's in good shape one day, go back there a week later and it's a lost cause. Sadly, once buildings around here go vacant, it's usually all over.
