Stay classy Beeston!
Musings on living in a 'regeneration area' in South Leeds
So in 2009 Leeds City Council decided to 'regenerate' my street. They began the process of purchasing the houses opposite to the row I live on, and the houses in the next street.
This little blog is about what it’s like to live amongst derelict houses in a neglected street under a ConDem Govt and a Labour Council . . I hope you find it interesting and illuminating.
Apologies for the quality of the photos, there used to be 4 houses here and soon a lovely view of the arse end of Dewsbury Road. |
plumes of dust, all very apocolyptic. |
bye bye |
the landscape begins to open up. |
More digger action |
same thing, different picture. |
