So what's the scoop on Ibrahim Khoder? Owns some Tigerland apts.

I don't know but a big chunck of tiger land properties are boarded up, it would be nice to tear those down

I am convinced that the sole reason someone hasn't bought those up en masse and redeveloped the area is that you would immediately be deemed RACIST. The gentrification people would eat the developer alive. Never mind that the current residents are living in rat infested moldy shitholes and its a war zone. That wouldn't matter.

Napalm...is the answer

I rented apartments in that area from that dude in the early 90s.

Even then he was a Slum lord, refusing to pay for basic repairs including AC in the summertime. He would come by our place and remark how adequately cooled it was (high 70's) with the AC running 24/7. Went by his placed once to pay rent, could not have been any warmer than 65° in there.

He sure lived better than his tenants

It’s not cheap to remediate asbestos and lead based paint. You can’t just smash that shite up and haul it to the landfill.

That was the place to be back when I was in college from 1998-2003

To live? Tiger plaza was ok, sharlo town homes were nice. But the rest of that area was a mix of ghetto and foreign exchange students during that time frame

Sure you can. You're not supposed to, but you can.

What show was that on? Sopranos or something. Some mafia types just dumping the shite in the river
