More Lubbock Downtown And Some South Overton

So many pics still to go in this series!

We explored a lot of alleys.

But now we switch abruptly to a house in South Overton, an old neighborhood with old houses in widely varying states of repair. Some are in awful shape and others have undergone restoration and remodeling. 

This one has major problems. It seems that someone has tried to repair it, but we think it was wasted time and money.

No doubt, someone thinks they'll rent this place and GET RICH QUICK! Think again.

It's a wooden house and all the wood is rotting!

This house has no foundation! It could collapse! It needs to be demolished! It is unfit for habitation!

But we've seen a lot of houses in Lubbock, in similar condition, that are occupied. Probably rentals. Lubbock has lots of slum lords.

Let's go back downtown!

Downtown is not where the action is...
