This really makes me angry. Both Holborn and the City are at fault for not ensuring that this 1909-built heritage building is kept in tip-top condition. Another example of how turning heritage buildings into SROs will ensure their destruction: either through neglect or constant abuse. Many structures were burned down in this region because they house irresponsible addicts who smoke, etc. Others are neglected so much they cannot be utilized to their fullest potential to house ordinary people, or turn into profitable business venues such as hotels or hostels, retail or food & beverage businesses. I am very appalled at what this City has come to.
