Apology to By Campaign

Sorry, I did not mean to sound rude, but I am so frustrated with the problems in this neighborhood. I want to stay living here, but I am tired of cleaning up other people's garbage; chasing off children spraying paint on fences; shining a flashlight into cars parked in the dark spot on my street and telling hookers to move along, etc. I should not have to live under these conditions.

Well...

I understand your frustration. I live a bit away from you, on Campaign, I can say, aside from the mattresses.... we have the same sort of thing going on here and on my entire path toward my home. I however am excited to see any little bit of an improvement as a good thing, and being an optimist, I try to look at the half full glass rather than the half empty one. Finally having a neighborhood bar within walking distance, that I am not frightened to walk into is a good thing for me, I am a single person and I like to socialize :) A car finally got towed today from my street! That makes me feel like all the phone calls are finally working! Maybe this neighborhood can be on an upswing if more people get involved and keep their eyes open and voice their concerns in a way other than just to complain and gripe!

New bar exterior

It does look very nice, I like the open windows. I HOPE this neighborhood is going to start an upswing soon! I am noticing that the city is responding more quickly to my complaints, so that is a start I suppose.
