that sucks. i thought they were going to rehab the apartments. those are great buildings and, from the exterior at least, seem to be in fine shape.
i hate to see them go, and i only pray that the single family homes replacing them are decent. i would imagine that it wouldn't be too hard to blend in with the townhome neighborhood just across 30th street, but it sucks to see dense housing, near transit, taken away for a couple of homes.
glad those terrible 1960s apartments are finally going to be demolished though. hideous.

Where is it exact location? If these are in Union Hill between 31st and Linwood then i would say yes tear them down, that area is kind of trashy to begin with, but if it's in the actual union hill between 31st and 28th, then no because I use to live in this area and every apartment was nice
yes, the brick bldg pictured is at the corner of 30th and grand. i disagree about the area between 31st and linwood though. it's sketchy but totally fine - my wife used to live there, and my sister in law still lives in there and it's a good area. they deserve their historic apartment bldgs too...
