Those buildings look like they have charm and good bones. What would stop enterprising individuals from rehabbing those buildings? Local "connected" owner collecting subsidies? Very high property taxes on improved assessments? Very high crime area?
At least one can masturbate on the Metro:

Lack of law enforcement limits what people will pay to live there. The rehab costs exceed this limit. For example, if the house fully rehabbed is only worth 30-35K, are you going to spend more then that to rehab it? Seriously, I live in a much better neighborhood that the pictures, but still could only get maybe 55K for my house.
I stopped calling the police years ago, since they never bothered showing up.
What’s your crime deterring utility? Big dog? Guns? Alarm system? I assume you have some way of thwarting the local hood rats.
I am guessing a "Help Wanted" sign.
Can anyone name one majority black city that's not a shithole?
I heard some MSM announcer state that Mr. Cummings' district is "diverse." Actually, it isn't. It's distinctly not diverse. Some 80% of 1 race, 18% of another, and 2% of a whole bunch of others combined. Contrast that with Silicon Valley, where no race is more than about 30%.
Another thing... the announcer seemed to imply that "diverse" is good without giving any indication of why.

Wakanda?
Haha I liked how at the end of that movie, Wakanda established an embassy in Oakland to educate the poor ignorant locals about the majesties of Wakanda.
