5 Pointz...

I cycled up to 5 Pointz this afternoon to take a look at what was going on. There's been a lot of talk about 5 Pointz recently as there's a real threat that it might be knocked down to make new apartments.

There have been rallies and petitions to try and save it - I'm not sure if they've worked or not as I don't think a final decision's been made yet.

It seemed busier than ever - so the news must be spreading and it certainly seemed like there were more tourists knocking around...

 It'll be a real shame if it does get knocked down - it seems like they're building new flats on every spot of land they can at the moment. But it's always great to see communities come together to try and prevent unwanted buildings going up. I'm noticing more and more community gardens popping up, which is fantastic - the garden down on Myrtle now has chickens!!!

Hopefully 5 Pointz will be around for many years to come.
