This afternoon I met Bradley. Wiry older guy and way down on his luck. He lives at 85 Genesee Street. Here, he's sitting down in what used to be a store front window - back in the day - having a bite to eat. He props the board up for a bit of privacy.
Here's a slideshow I put together of the two buildings [quikmap] at the corner of Genesee and Ellicott - 85 and 91 Genesee Street. The one story building in the pics is 85 - where Bradley is sitting and the taller one, with the grey boarded windows to Bradley's left, is 91 Genesee Street. Just got back 12:15am...he's bunked down for the night. On your way to the office or back to your car tomorrow, stop by and say hello. Stay tuned...it's a developing story...

David. I wish you would stop showing these old abandoned buildings that our savy landlords provide rent free living spaces; why would my tennant want to rent from me when she can get one of these luxery suites. Michael Hardy
