i dunno
round us there are a number of estates with terraced housing all built in a square round green space. It's a proper shitehole full of people with more finger than teeth.

I know that when the flats were built, a lot of people were moved out of those post war damp places and slums. A teacher at school said his gran claimed beign moved in the 60's added 10 years to her life.

They were knocked down afew years ago because they were chockful of scrubbers thereafter.

Then you've got all the modern building going off. It's flats ahoy targeting the young professional type and all that but these places, often built in city centres so no more green spces, seem to have avoided becoming graffiti infested holes with people shooting up on the stairs.

That said, Scotland does have some unique differences going on with the tenement buildings still being fairly strong. Thing is though, some of those in edinburgh, even now, will set you back a fortune says someone who was forced to move to Falkirk due to not being able to afford anything pleb free in Edinburgh.
