No one is addressing why businesses closed and the homeless and crime you can't put lipstick on a pig...denial is not a river in Egypt
When we have a mayor that cannot envision what the public the taxpayer wants and does not enforce law for the homeless drug addicts to actually drive out crime so we can have a normal shopping experience with a clean environment. We will never see what our grandparents use to enjoyed about a safe downtown and China town!
It's so obvious Blangiardi cares deeply about the issue and it has done a lot to address it. You're blaming the guy that got us to the point where things are actually better now since the ridiculous covid policies which everybody lost their mind about.
Affordable units for who? Investors again.More problems again
Driving the homeless away from that location doesn’t solve the homeless problem. They’ll just be down the street or elsewhere.
It's not supposed to.
Nah cuz in ur yard😅😅😅 let's go Brandon
They’ll go to Kakaako. Now at night around Waldon Park it’s a zoo .
They need to be shipped back to the mainland
New creation to help positively impact the area and bring it up is a good thing. It’s sad seeing so many vacant storefronts. Looking forward to the renewing of the area and uplifting Hawaii.
The drugs and homeless issue is sad. Not all of them are homeless because of drug abuse, some are mentally disabled and just left to be on their own. More solutions need to be put into effect from state level. Gov sponsored rehab. A place for them to live and ways for them to contribute and feel a part of society. Street cleanups, gardening, anything that gives them some feeling of having purpose and self worth. While cracking down on drug dealers and their suppliers. And getting drug education programs going again in schools… not that “gender affirming care” BS. Just thinking out loud.
Keep it short loony tunes.Its a comment section,not a manifesto.
@@Glen-md1irwow, I have a troll!🤣
I used to work in one of the office buildings on Bishop street during college (ages ago). Back then, I just remember the HPU students and small stores that catered to students / office workers.
That was in the 2000s. Not ages ago.
Good, as long as those homeless get cleared out.
agreed anything is better than a deserted walmart lol
Moved to where? Those are people. Not all of them are drug addicts or alcoholics. They're not just rubbish to be swept aside. A real solution needs to be found.
@@daringilmore6470 some don’t want to be helped
@@daringilmore6470 They absolutely are rubbish to be swept aside.
@@Auditor_of_the_Stupidyour an awful ungodful person
So, it's investment that solves crime, not political will and law enforcement.
Got it!
Yeah, it does.
😅The bums rule the city😢
Everywhere get homeless ppl no matter if they put new buildings or mall up.
I am guessing It'll be out of reach for most but I'm sure most units will be pre‐sold to the Chinese anyway. Smdh
I woulda like to see a indoor market/swap meet for merchants to sell product inside the old Wal mart but whatever works i guess.
You can build all the cool stuff you want. If a burger is $25 the area will remain the same. Just might look better. The only way to bring people back to downtown? Probably not gonna happen. Sadly.
Is Bryce Moore Joe’s son?
yes
Mary Tyler😅😅😅
Grandson i think
Bunch of whiney complainers in here Waaaawaaaa grow up life doesn’t revolve around you 🤣🤣😭
Your prob a white mainlander
Well look like 24 hour fitness going have new neighbors, but still they still have homeless problems and drugs problems their especially late knight over knight.
this island is longe gone! Big island and Molokai are the only ones left with a chance!
Molokai is nothing but welfare and people who don’t even fully work there.
Good Luck!!😂
Make sure going have shopping cart parking 😅😅😅
I live in Florida and never knew there was crime there.
Need safe public restrooms to replace the one that Walmart provided.
Utopia rising! 🤭
Utopia was a class-based system that encouraged slave ownership.
@@pinoygal6232That may have been one particular take on a utopia. Utopia is the general idea of a "perfect" civilization, the definition doesn't specify exactly what that entails.
@@davec3651 Utopia is not just a definition, it is from a fictional book from the early 1500's. In that book, the people of Utopia Island have slaves. This is the first known use of this word.
"A truly golden little book, (not less beneficial than enjoyable, about how things should be in a state and about the new island Utopia") is a work of fiction and socio-political satire by Thomas More (1478-1535)
@@pinoygal6232 Ok, that's fine. And I'm saying that I was using the modern general definition of the word, not making a specific literary reference. I hope you're not the type needing to wedge social injustice into unrelated discussions.
@@davec3651 I'm not an SJW, I just always thought that it was an interesting fact, and ironic.
What exactly is "affordable"?! Who would want to move INTO A CRIME AREA?!!
Don't treat the homeless as a "problem" or just move them out of the area! There's a real problem, fix that first before you plan to gentrify the area again! It didn't work last time, what makes you think you will be able to do it this time?! Push people aside to make money off of visitors and forget all about local people and the real problems that are here?!!
Before opening business help people that need to sober up lay off the drugs and the homeless people hawn islands getting ugly with that seriously.
Nope 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
