They need to keep crime down if they really want the area to flourish
A friend of mine ate lunch at Elsie's and had a window to their vehicle smashed/items stolen. Weird thing is they were parked in the Elsie's parking lot
Car break ins will happen in the city. Police presence will help with that. So will street parking. But most of Government street isn't what I'd consider "dangerous".
I've spent a lot of time there until about 2011. I think the crime is better in mid city than it was 20 years ago before Capital Heights started it's resurgence. Even Ogden Park now is seeing some interest, although that area still borders some shady neighborhoods. Lots of home renovations in that area. There are even a couple of higher end apartment buildings going in, including one sort of across the street from Curbside. The residents in a handful of those areas around Goodwood, Capitol Heights, and the Garden District pay neighborhood fees to have OT police officers patrol their neighborhood specifically. That's helped a lot.
