Next to go, is this burned out mess on Louis, right off of Riverside Drive.
It’s about time the city started to take some action on these eyesore properties in the core. It wasn’t that long ago, if something burned down, it was quickly taken care of. These days it seems that these buildings sit around for years.

Like every CIP & Study done by the city.... It's been shelved indefinitely....
The City and Council shelving (aka "note and file") a report? That doesn't sound like the wonderful City of Windsor that I live in! I thought we actually followed through with recommendations in these reports and plans. Don't we have a marina downtown on the waterfront? Isn't there an arena with a Wayne Gretzky restaurant, oh wait I'm a little confused, I meant an urban village that so many people want to live and shop at. I'm pretty sure we also have an aquarium or water park downtown around this urban village and Riverside Drive's been widened to include bike lanes and safer traffic measures for all citizens.
The City of Windsor could always change it's bylaws to make the whole process easier, cheaper and definitely faster.I don't live in the ward but if I did,I would be all over my councillor until something was done.
The city should just acquire these properties slowly like they did with the Brighton Beach area.This area is going to be developed sooner or later.It all seems pretty simple to me.Maybe that's why council doesn't get it.I don't even want to get going on the Indian Rd situation.
It unbelievable that these things go one here.Even Detroit is starting to get it.Why can't we.
Another dump from the old neighborhood!
Boy, moving to Drouillard Road was like moving to a deluxe apartment in the sky!
I imagine that property values are next to nothing, which is astounding, since it's practically riverfront property.
