Been living in one of the apt towers for 4-5 years now. Have NEVER had a problem with the homeless up until this fall. Downtown homeless has (generally) been very nice, respectful, and perfectly okay. Have historically been totally comfortable with my wife walking around at night etc. we even know a couple of them by name!
My opinion and tolerance is QUICKLY disappearing.
JUST THIS WEEK, I’ve seen an absolutely unacceptable harrasement sitation, AGGRESSIVE begging, a fist fight between two homeless.... and was walking to Breakfast Club and literally witnessed one guy SHITTING on another guy who was sleeping by the bus stop on central and adams. Truely embarrasing as my wife was with me.. but thank godness we didnt have our young nephews this weekend
All that just this week.... First time I've ever had second thoughts about living downtown...
