    1. Town Center - that's the area. By comparison, "The Square" is a development located within the Town Center.

  2. How about allowing police to do foot patrols in that area and stop suspicious people, and do stop and frisk when appropriate? Makes sense right? That way people will be inclined to leave the weapons at home, if they think they could be stopped and charged with having the guns right? Or are we going to continue to try and vilify police and arrest the police? 😆

  4. That block is dangerous. It is due to the low income housing in the immediate area.
