Even though the building is in reasonable condition, it is still lacking. Being cobbled together over the years, combined with its intense use, has inflicted wear and tear beyond what would typically be found in a single family house. Combine the hard use with the lack of amenities and the result is an obsolete property which attracts lower income renters. Not that there is anything wrong with that. But many of the neighbors are generally not welcoming. In addition the tenants tend to be very transitory, compounding neighborly relations. Put simply: it is not a use the neighbors find particularly appealing. The fact of the matter is, surrounding property values will increase with the elimination of these two boarding houses.
