The favorite hangout spots back then were far less widespread than they are now. There were a lot more spaces in between where people just didn't go, not even because crime was high, which it sort of was, but more because there just wasn't anything there. That was back when the warehouse district really was a warehouse district.

I'm with you. Though I can't say that from experience....wasn't alive in '83. Pretty close-ish.
