Van Blommesteinstraat

The neighbourhood is deteriorating very quickly unfortunately. Rubbish is increasingly being dumped next to containers, more drug-using residents and their associated dealers. Hardly any parking spaces left for visitors, the surrounding neighbourhoods come here to park to avoid paid parking in their own area, the church musicians park the area full of expensive cars on Wednesday evenings. The general condition of older homes is poor despite renovation. Cracks in balconies and ceilings are hidden under coating, insulation or paint. The new-build owner-occupied homes have brought a lot of antisocial people (not from Delft) with them, making the playground less fun for the children who grew up here and leaving a lot of rubbish behind. Cars are parked on street corners, making it impossible to see as a road user. Cars are parked on passing and refuge areas, on Van Kinschotstraat, cars are half in the middle of the road up to beyond the designated parking spaces at the bus crossing. In short, the neighbourhood is increasingly busy and increasingly antisocial. Not to mention the perspective houses in between that cause nuisance. Old residents who have lived here for years and are moving because of nuisance-causing new neighbours, it's all just possible nowadays. Don't forget the housing associations, taking responsibility for overdue maintenance, serious defects and living nuisance, Stedelink and Woonbron also don't. The low flats near the bicycle tunnel are completely disfiguring the neighbourhood, people dump everything by the container or on the street there. That landlord also doesn't show himself. Enforcement is never there either and I haven't seen the neighbourhood police officer in 28 years.
