talking about regeneration.....
i was born in liverpool and used to live in kirkby and edge hill before we moved away when i was a kid....
used to go the game all the time during late 80's/early 90's but then moved down south and couldn't afford to travel up...
in the past couple of years have managed to get up to liverpool about 5/6 times
came up to liverpool by coach last weekend (usually go by train) and went down edge lane and couldn't believe all the boarded up houses with metal grilles.why are these basically decent houses empty ? is edge hill dodgy nowadays ? did everyone move away ?
obviously there are other areas in liverpool with houses boarded up (eg anfield..)
but these seemed to be really decent houses...
are they due to be demolished as part of some council regeneration plan ??
