Mayor Turner is more enamored with the concept of an "Innovation Corridor" as opposed to taking practical steps to make our neighborhoods decent and lean. All visionary concepts must be built on a solid foundation, and our foundation consists of trash, feces, and sidewalks littered with bodies. The city's response to the problem is more fences and inactivity.

Exactly right...it's embarrassing and disgusting to have guests come to Midtown. Just remember, elections are just around the corner.

These piles are trash ares caused by people and organizations that bring meals in containers and bags/boxes of clothing to these people that live on the streets instead of taking them to the agencies that serve the homeless as part of the Coalition for the Homeless = who can distribute these items and meals to people that truly need them. Because of the holiday there is a massive misguiided effort by churches, people and groups who don't take the time to find out where to drop off these donations...it's just easy to bring them downtown to the gatherings who are not homeless but lawless. Then our neighborhoods have to deal with the leftover piles of hazardous waste and trash.
