- Terrified residents of South Melbourne's Park Towers are pleading for help from the government as they endure unsanitary conditions, violence and crime in the public housing block.
#SouthMelbourne #SocialHousing #HousingCrisis
They forgot to mention the elderly people who are very vulnerable and placed next to unstable junkies.
Come to qld were junkie hunters up here...
😂😂
Women and children need separate social housing. No one should live in fear
What is a woman .?..
That said, they definitely put rock spiders and other predators in the towers, knowing full well there are families in there as these poor people spoke about and that could definitely be controlled.
Sure, and Bob Hawke said no child in Australia will live in poverty! Australia is no different from the rest of the world.
@@joynicolson4158If you dont know what a woman then maybe you need help
I agree
Good on that reporter for talking about her life growing up in public housing. She showed great sensitivity in her reporting.
I grew up in public housing but it was a stand alone house in a mixed owner-occupier/housing commission neighbourhood. I had a great childhood with no problems. Fast forward now as a doctor I did outreach work into one of these towers and I was appalled by the unsafe and unsanitary conditions. It’s a dumping ground for people society would label as “undesirable”….it needs to change!
Sarah actually went to school in Brisbane and is now a multi millionaire...
Don't think she stayed in housing commission for long in western Sydney. But good story.
I love that she wasn't afraid to say that aswell - and you.
What l find interesting is people expect immigrants placed in these public housing to come out different. Yes some will rise above it but some are consumed by the environment that is already chaotic.
@@Me-xoxozImmigrants make up largest cohort of people living in public housing complexes in Australia? Hmm, fact check needed...
It’s definitely got a terrible reputation in South Melbourne. I feel so sorry for the women with their children living there escaping domestic abuse. Please help them
The minute I saw the eyebrow piercing in the intro yep I was like this is UK or Australia...
That what you get for putting junkies and criminals in public housing.
I agree these people should not be there
Spongers 👎
Who would have thought? 😮
No other cities around the world have this problem....oops.
Yes because having them on the street is better for everyone isn't it?
@@skids3048 Anywhere away from decent people. Preferably the desert.
THANK YOU. This is a very accurate description of public housing blocks in Adelaide where I live. Its not exaggerated.
Well maybe you should wonder why brave police commissioner Karmha and SAPOL treat you with such disregard. Think about it. Exactly who does run South Australia? Wasn't the current premier the police minister under Jay Weatherill? If the coppers refuse to report the crime, then it didn't happen. It's the police who decide who the crims are.....
@@paulthesurfer7470 Police have always been fantastic. I feel sorry for them having to constantly go through what they do in this housing complex. Let me give you one example. My 6'4" next door neighbour smashes up his wife and kids in a terrifying episode. Car windows smashed in (and its not easy to smash in a car window), house windows and doors smashed in. I was on the other side of a flimsy fence when it happened. I didnt think they would survive. All I could do was run inside, lock my doors, call the police and hope he didnt smash my door and windows in. I phoned up my son to come and get me because I was so scared, but at the same time I didnt feel I could leave this woman and her children until the police arrived. The perpetrator was arrested, remanded in custody, and a court date was set. Police assured me that the assault was so serious, that he wouldn't be coming back. Believing them, I agreed to testify against him in court. The judge let him straight back out again. His wife and kids were taken by police to a shelter/down market hotel. The court even gave him permission to go back and live at his old address. So he now occupies a 4 bedroom home, and all his black African mates are now there with him. And I am quite terrified having him live next door to me now. Drinking sets him off and he is in his back shed drinking every night. So go easy on the police. If the government built more jail space, the judges wouldnt need to send them home.
I used to clean one apartment in there on floor 10 I was always terrified whenever I got into the lift 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
This is horrific that anyone is subjected to these horrid living conditions, let alone children. Our Government is making Australia a 3rd world country and allowing this hell.
3rd world countries don't buy nuclear-powered submarines....😮
But what country doesn't have similar issues to this?
Been like this for over 20-30 years
They don’t care
And invite more people in the country-
It’s a Joke 🤡
Australia sucks!
They can go buy their own house if they don’t like it rather than sponging off the community
@@commonlawrights9514 inhumane.
You have no idea what it’s like to be scared in our own home. My area has a government housing estate here and it’s terrifying not to mention what it is like to try and shop in our local CBD. We have a violence crisis in Melbourne.
The government don’t care!
correct. I speak from experience.
@@helenahayes6150getting screwed by government opened my eyes to critical thinking.
The system is not broken, it's built that way.
Yes they dont care at all.
They can go buy their own house if they don’t like it rather than sponging off the community
It needs to be easier to put the people who are abusive into Jail.
Need to get more taxes to build more jails first! 😮
Police are too busy intentionally making things worse
@@multioptionedThey could just tax the foreign companies that are getting our resources and dollars for nothing 🤷♀️
@alyssaoconnor Governments will always go after the easiest targets. Large corporations, especially multi nationals, have "legal" ways of avoiding and minimising tax. The government runs the risk of losing the foreign investment to other countries if they try to get more tax from them. That's why 800 of the largest companies in Australia pay little or no tax here. But Australia needs their investments and the jobs they create.
The state is broke. Cost to much to jail people
I was an ambo in 90’s and through the 2000’s and we were sent there a lot and not only did our stretchers not fit in the lifts but I was sometimes scared sh**less and I’m not a soft man the place is horrible !
How are you supposed to transport frail patients. Wow, someone missed a memo somewhere !!?
@@user-cz6gk2ci4k yep the lifts my god we had to put patients on stretcher, secure them with the straps get half in the lifts drop the foot end to the ground then lift the head end up till they were almost in a standing position it was terrifying for some frail people and every single housing flats were are the same all over Melbourne and there is about 50 of these horrible places. Peace to you. 👍
Good on you Sarah! Thankyou for shining your light on this. 35 years and nothing has changed. People feeling so stuck and powerless. 💔
They should assign a part of that building where only single mums and their children are allowed in that area. Those with major issues should be in another area and so forth.
Obviously Government workers don’t have that sort of IQ to follow that through…
Great idea now to get the government to do it 🤬🤬
They can go buy their own house if they don’t like it rather than sponging off the community
Yeah thats how we grew up, single mothers, elderly and disabled in the flats.
I grew up in croydon though.. so the suburb itself was better
ONLY the deserving should get public and social housing, being vulnerable elderly, disabled, families fleeing violence, but ONLY those who are peaceful, clean, law-abiding, respectful and who look after their apartment and commin areas. No druggies, alcoholics, unhinged nutters, peverts, crimsz ex crims...; one strike and you're evicted. Public housing is necessary but also a privilege. It is unbelievable how many ferels there are in Australia!
I live in housing because my twin and I have disability. I’ve had to confront my neighbours (in Brisbane suburb) disability support workers many times for running our duplex down into the ground and turning it into a cesspit. And it’s actually the support workers and NDIS service providers that are causing the Feralism but NDIS safeguard commission is already overwhelmed with petty complaints and is having trouble prioritising clients.
People who are already marginalised are being disenfranchised even more as they are being mixed in with the rotten bunch who only want to gang bang but for the rest of us, who respect law and order, it’s a nightmare and hard to get out of the hell hole due to low income which is only a byproduct of circumstance not necessarily by choice, nor as a consequence of making personal bad choices.
They need to build a new jail for the offenders on a remote island, then rennovate the building and allow those that are well behaved to live in peace.
Sure, do that....are you ready to pay $700,000 per year to lock up a person in need of care and rehabilitation? I suggest you have a think about our privatised prisons and wonder why people like you call for dope politicians to get tough on crime while they get brown paper bags from the same criminals who own the prisons. Serco come to mind.....
send em to Tassie
What about the politicians that create such an environment?
@@Wooplot A new penal colony eh?
@@WooplotNo thanks, the rich entitled tourists that you send here are bad enough 😂
Sad sad world we live in
Ide rather enjoy the freedom of homelessness than this
I thought that if people were known to behave like this they can be removed and refused further government housing. What happened to that?
Everyone’s too scared to act , rules that aren’t enforced… empty words…
I have seen countless drug dealers get busted go to jail pay extremely cheap rent to keep their place and they just come back. 😢
They can’t refuse housing to someone mentally ill, disability act gone too far. Every vice is a disability now but instead of treating them they just put them into housing and give them NDIS because they closed down a lot of the rehabilitation centres.
it causes a spillover onto the street, then you'll complain those people aren't housed. STFU
We go to the police, tenants get restraining orders, we constantly tell housing, but they just ignore. It's maddening!
Is laughable: A country as big as Australia, resorts to building tower blocks. No, it wasn't done deliberately to screw up people's heads.
People with no money want to live in expensive cities? 😮
What's that property worth to taxpayers if sold to developers? 💰
Absolutely horrible places.
I lived in the Flemington high rise towers as a teenager in the early to late 80s and it was scary back then but it looks like there are now much more dangerous gangs due to Australia's need to import the worst of the worst from third word countries and stick them all together in a cesspool.
I feel sorry for the genuine people who get stuck there
The government could not care less.
No government can be stuffed with this issue
That’s socialism for you
I live next to public housing buildings in South Sydney, I often hear domestic arguments and people partying and yelling till 2-3am.
So, they have early nights, then?
Government are not going to bother because the tower will be demolished
Australia is a culture-dead society. If all children attended after-school lessons in music schools and sports clubs in the area they live, I mean give the kids the whole spectrum of activities from piano to drums, martial arts to ballet and table tennis or woodwork/carpentry to artwork to choose from, then these kids would have a skill set they look forward every day to participate in and develop their social skills with competent adults who support their learning and care about their progress. These young people will become adults who actively engage in the community and contribute to the economy. Right now, only children who are fortunate to live in well-off families can afford the extracurricular lessons and have the opportunity to interact in the wider community with competent mentors.
I agree with you.
I believe I give more free music lessons to kids and adults. Just seeing their faces of accomplishments with pride makes up for the money
Australia 💕 Christina
You just described some immigrant Chinese families I know of. It's all about education, upbringing and role models. "Australians" just don't get it.
I'm low income, social housing. My husband has survived cancer and other chronic health issues and cannot work. My son attends boxing lessons and chess club up to 6 afternoons per week and has access to a plethora of musical instruments. He also reads at night instead of a screen. We have to supplement his academics because the school is not good. We sacrifice a lot to pay for his enrichment. The social housing near us is occupied by total dregs, people who destroy it. We have really nice new homes but they just wreck it and continue to behave atrociously. It's depressing. We just try to be house proud and do the absolute best for our son so he has every chance to escape it one day.
@@KG-wv9sg It`s lovely to hear your son is doing so well and enjoys his box training and chess. Yes, what can we do about the neighbours that terrorize the other tenants? The social housing employees don`t seem to care and don`t seem to have a process whereby they could move the antisocial tenants to a certain s.housing block where they can terrorize each other. The only thing I can think of is to form your own tenant's community group and meet once a month and discuss ongoing issues, support one another and collectively write to the relevant social housing office about critical issues i.e. tenants that damage communal property or threaten other tenants. Could you organize your own tenancy watch? and motivate those neighbours who are interested to participate in cleaning and maintaining the common areas and perhaps assisting old tenants with shopping or repairs. I know it isn't easy to motivate people to care and the alternative is to vacate but I know this isn`t an option for some people.
I have worked within the privatised/outsoursed Victorian public housing system. This is nothing, compared to the very easy access one can obtain as to where women's shelters and emergency housing is, the entry codes and emergency key locations and identities of those who work there. Dig a little deeper, Project. This comment is bona-fide.
I work in housing for the Aus. GOVT. I wanted to make a difference. It is impossible cept for the odd person who I can do extra advocation for in my own time at my own expense. It WILL get much worse :(.
Thank you so much for sharing. I met 2 amazing workers like yourself and I can empathise with the helplessness you faced.
1 would visit me each time I was hospitalised, until she cried during her last visit and then transferred.
She put her heart & soul into her work and I seen 1st hand, how 1 case alone impacted her life - professionally and personally.
I will never forget her or the fight she fought when I no longer could. I'll be forever grateful.
I'm sure you had this affect on at least 1 life, so let me assure you that your presence and work never went to waste. Someone/People you helped will also remember you forever.
@essdee5876 Thank you for those lovely words. They made me smile. And yes, I have had very similar experiences with clients who have ended up being lifelong friends. Vicarious trauma on the workers is so prevalent right now. We do as much as we can with what we have, and unfortunately, that is not enough. The people we see daily leave huge impacts on us. There is not that much that separates the worker from the client in this day and age.
Just about sums up the entire state of housing in Aus
They can go buy their own house if they don’t like it rather than sponging off the community
With what money?@@commonlawrights9514

Let's be real. This is happening in EVERY Australian state and territory. Not just Victoria. Liberal or Labor. Failures over decades.
Build more public housing in these politicians' streets halfway houses, too . Demand it
Disgraceful the government need to do something now, maybe the government should spend a week in their accommodation. 😡
I've put down a very similar comment and just come across urs, except I said them and their families live there for a week with no security, as they need to experience what they've created.....jail would be much better to these living conditions!

@@mmca7288at this point it honestly kinda would and that’s just depressing to think about
Yep they should spend a week on a disabled persons payment while living in public housing as a requirement to enter politics, most of them are silver spoon children and are a long time out of touch with reality (if they ever were in the first case).
Don't know who the lady is in the blue dress that grew up in housing commission but hats off to you for doing so well for yourself. Well done 👏
Thankyou for teiiing the truth .
The government couldn't care less.
The government has a responsibility to keep tenants safe. If you want public housing you shouldn’t have a criminal record, an intervention order against you or a drug/alcohol problem.
They need to restart funding to rehabs and asylum’s but do it right. At present every group you have mentioned are classified as having a disability and are considered to be protected under the disability act. The government gives them housing and access to NDIS funding and wipe their hands of the situation, thats what happens when the government privatises everything.
Here’s a question, there are hundreds of people PAYING to rent in these places, WHERE EXACTLY DOES THE MONEY GO FROM ALL THOSE RENTS?
Definitely not into repairing the buildings. Good point 👍
Its very little rent
Its a quarter of their income
Absolutely disgraceful! Let the government live there!
The government don’t care there busy watching there investment properties brought with our tax payer money go up in value with this housing crisis , there wages our coming out of our pockets it’s disgusting.
The project hosts are paid more than politicians. How many properties do they have? You think they really care about this story?
Sarah u nailed it. Hasn’t changed. I raised my 3 adults kids on my own. And it was traumatic in housing at times stalked by drunks living on a lane way. The DV system is pathetic also.
Shows the limitations of authorites - they lack teeth to deal with what needs to be done.
Good reminder to be well schooled so you give yourself and any children the best start from your own hands.They should play this in schools - choose your future !
Who does best in schools? Non Australian background children. It's all about priorities and upbringing.
The Government need to start being held accountable for profiting off this type of behaviour and way of living. It's disgusting that these Governments keep getting away with it , this is absolutely know coincidence they way the people a living!
Government, politics don't give a dam about what's going on in this country , theses people should not be living in theses conditions, our children are our future. ,,, SHAME on our government
The sad thing about this place is that there are some really good people who live here but there are some that are dangerous and the mentally unwell. You need to see it to believe. I’ve seen Sydney’s housing also and they don’t come close to Melbourne.
This is city living, the housing apartments have always been worse than the stand alone housing (even though the housing suburbs are bad enough). This is why the big push for mass building in major cities is a bad idea.
Nailed it. I live in the CBD and I've seen and heard horror in new apartment buildings. Not as rife as commission but it's there.
…been like this for decades. Media interest a wake up call? Poverty is a problem since dot.
👏
Not for our politicians!
How is this even legal? Where are the regulators?
Park Towers is just like Northcott in Surry Hills Sydney.
The only difference is Northcott isn't as tall, but has multiple buildings in the complex.
I'm lucky to live in a good Houso building with only 7 units, and almost all my neighbours are elderly, so it's really quiet. I thank my lucky stars evey day!
Sick sad world
The world was and is fine without humans.
These towers look like the ones straight out of Scotland and the UK.
Every country has cities with these housing and social problems. It's nothing new.
Yes, they were modeled pretty much directly off of the British ones. They probably even have the same floorplans.
@@plaidshirt9955 straight out of trainspotting
Druggies need to be in some sort of program and housing where they are helped and supervised daily and not left to languish on their own until they are clean. Then they need training for work. But I can only dream I suppose. I saw something like this happening in America where an entrepreneur put so much of his own money into it as the government bodies would not do a thing. There were some great outcomes for some.
This is just so deplorable. It is something you'd have got in 1970s ghettos of NY...not in this day n age Australia...not good enough...
Not just NY its the same with city apartment public housing all over the world, its never worked to concentrate the poverty class into a small area.
@@alyssaoconnor it shouldn't be and never was this way in Australia....something happened for the worse and the govt is ruining this country.

At least these people don't have guns too...
@@wend2239 Nothing has changed.Same issues in the early 1980s in Richmond towers where I lived during primary school. I had grew up very fast, witnessed things no child should experience.This model does not work!
You have no idea how bad it is.....
Yep.
Similar issues at the Sydney Towers in Waterloo..no suprises there 🤨
And in every other city around the world....😮 People who have no money want to live in an expensive city?
The truth is it has been like that for decades and nothing will ever change. If you want to get out, you need to get a job.
😂😂 yes because gaining employment is so easy in this country, especially with our economy and the rapid rate of businesses shuttung down....but do carry on telling people they need a job... 😐🤦♀️
I hope the women with children can get out of that city and find housing & work in the regional areas. Cities are sewers for those who aren’t rich
Wonderful documentary report 👏 👌 👍 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉xxxx XXX
Heartbreaking to say the least. Even when you think you can help the people there is evil is living there .
Go to new housing towers Midtown Macquarie Park Sydney. Its not even full and police there daily. Assaults drugs and nuts screaming. And theyve built 900 units with no reasources.
Looks like The Project is trying to piggy back off Spanians success 😂
There is an old saying in the media: if it bleeds , it Leads !
I think they are trying to act like they are for the people when really they just care about themselves
Totally, thank god for spanian shedding light on this side of life. It's not right. Send the army in to keep people safe. Lock up the crime mate
@@RebeccaRussell-cc3pfokay boomer I don’t think that’s what spanian wanted Bec haha

There should be separate living for women and children.
Due to the mass child removal of children in public housing in NSW there’s no children left here to be in any danger which is very sad as families should be supported to stay together yet families are torn apart due to poverty and children placed in far far far worse circumstances. I live in the Redfern towers in Sydney. 😢
Sending hundreds of millions to Ukraine and Israel but can’t even fix this fixable problem
This is a State issue, not Federal. No State is sending a single cent to international concerns.
@@Damonicus1 don’t think small bro.
I lived in the North Richmond flats from when I was 13. I seen/heard a lot of things growing up there. I live in South Australia now & i'm 33 this year. I visit my old girl from time to time & let me tell you this... NOTHING has changed sadly. It's gotten worse since they put the injection room there.
All the easy shots at the Govt, but we'll see if the Project can develop enough mock outrage for even a follow up story. If this has been ongoing for so long (it has) why have the media been so missing in action in the reportage of the problem?
Why does it take one of the show's hosts to have a personal history in social housing for a programme like the Project to take an interest ? ? If wealthy people were suddenly forced to live here the problems would be fixed quick smart...
EXACTLY
The project hosts are multi millionaires. Sarah was educated in Queensland. Her house in Sydney is worth several million dollars.
How did an explosion in Sydney trigger this story in Melbourne? Maybe ask Spanian 😂

Exactly the same in my housing units at Gosford. Disgusting
Good luck, Victoria is almost 200 Billion in debt
My grandmother lived in the Inkerman Street, St Kilda units. When she was placed in hospital, her unit was ransacked and everything taken or trashed...my grandfather's horse racing trophies were taken as well as other memorabilia. We suspected someone within the complex but the police would not investigate. They were poor, on a pension. She also had her engagement rings taken by an in-home carer (just another violation 😒 they endured).
This is absolutely horrendous, where’s the mayor ??? … he needs to get this sorted , it’s beyond a joke …
Fitzroy Towers ... same. Yet four floors in Richmond - renovated, empty for years?
Been like that since I was a kid, all the towers are pretty much the same
Just wow , I think a private investigator needs to collect evidence on the ones causing harm and eviction notice to them , also better security on top and bottom floors,.
And if you tell DHHS, they'll gaslight everyone and accuse them of wanting to just "upgrade their housing". 99 of 100 workers don't care. The 1 that does feels helpless and leaves.
Conscription at 18! 3 years minimum. Convictions... conscription minimum 5 years in the middle of nowhere!! Our society is crumbling as it rots as each year passes!
Nice one Victorian Government AND Greens 🤬👹
It's all by design - now the contracts for re-development and low-income housing will go to certain developers close to the right people. They let these places rot so they can revitalise them for profit.
The waiting list for public housing in Victoria is waaaay longer than stated in this doc!
I was wondering that! I live in Queensland, but I did think those waitlist times they quoted were VERY quick…
Very sad..whoever built these towers need to make amends now.. so so tragic for anyone to live here...sort it out now.😢
The government paid for it but you can thank the church for pushing the agenda to remove families from their ground level homes and into these soul destroying towers, to live with predators, in Melbourne at least.

Indeed, no one should have to live under such conditions. However, the question remains: who will bear the cost of the repairs? It’s important to note that we’re not discussing a solitary structure. Should the expense fall on taxpayers? Many refer to the government, but it’s essential to recognize that the government consists of individuals who are funded by tax revenues. So, ultimately, who is responsible for the payment?
If we taxed the minerals and resource giants we could fix the problem 10 times over.
Why governments are getting out of public housing and giving responsibilities to private sector. Taxpayers can only pay so much.
Stuck in a housing house in nsw after the courts order them to move me 3 years ago and they rejected the transfer. They keep getting the road of other services helping me and say they want him to breach avo that's no longer in place.. he is out of jail anyday now!
Why is this a surprise?
We all knew it would happen.
Its always been like that there, in Melbourne..covid made things quiet for a bit and then eventually back to normal. It has always been like that.
More of a police matter first.
This situation is fixable. It requires everyone involved working together. And the blame shifting and scape goating has to stop first. It's not good to have to rely upon government for everything. The media can also be a part of the solution. It begins with I care, I and we don't want to live like this and we want better for you...but it requires everyone to come to that decision.There also needs to be equality with dignity. It's also not a quick fix and blaming the current government for the whole problem, for ignoring the fact that people that are given social housing are treated less than and given less than has been going on for ages. People need to stop behaving like they are animals. Stop blaming the pandemic for everything. People need to take responsibility of what they need to take responsibilty for. Government are not wanting to put the time, effort into this until people stop behaving like vile, agressive animals, there also needs to be listening.
The so called goverment should of done their research as to how this crammed situation would have played out ! But instead we have people in charge who have no idea they are just interested in getting paid. unfortunately
