Once such a beautiful neighborhood, BH devolved rapidly once crack hit the streets in the late 80's, early 90's. It is common for prostitutes to walk Beaver Hills, and I have seen many methods for drug dealing over the years, from "beep for drugs" to "sit in your car and wait for the addicts to come." A neighbor's tenants also dealt out of their home, and used covered cable boxes as pickup boxes, until they were evicted. Deals on the streets, in the open, and as easily as "Meet me on X street, I'm driving X car (with the illegal tinted windows)." Used condoms, needles, trash all over.... What a sad place New Haven has become.

I would encourage all residents in the Whalley/Edgewood/Beaver Hills neighborhood concerned with these issues to come to our monthly management team meetings which are held on the 3rd Tuesday of the month at 7pm. Right now they are being held at the Stop & Shop on Whalley Ave in the community room, but will soon be moving to our new police substation at 332 Whalley Avenue in July. We talk about issues like this, as well as many others with our fellow residents and police district manager Sgt. John Wolcheski.

We are closing this request due to its historic nature. If this concern still requires attention and you still believe SeeClickFix is a viable tool for its resolution the best way for it to be addressed is for you to create a new request including a current description of what is occurring and what solution you hope to see regarding this matter, citing/linking this request in the details. Thank you for your dedication to improving the quality of life in our community.
