sttombiz Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 I was driving by yesterday and saw a sign for a 'variance' on the apartment complex at Briar Forest and Kirkwood or Briar Forest and Wilcrest. Forget which. What's going on here?Are these not one of the complexes that had so many problems after Katrina? Didn't Matress Mack want to buy them? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatieDidIt Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 (edited) I was driving by yesterday and saw a sign for a 'variance' on the apartment complex at Briar Forest and Kirkwood or Briar Forest and Wilcrest.

Actually, if they would just get rid of the FOOD TOWN at Briar Forest and Wilcrest many would move because they couldn't walk to a cheap store. Don't get me wrong, the area was never "great," but it certainly wasn't dangerous and people weren't killing each other.

lolita66 Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 I was driving by yesterday and saw a sign for a 'variance' on the apartment complex at Briar Forest and Kirkwood or Briar Forest and Wilcrest. Forget which. What's going on here?Are these not one of the complexes that had so many problems after Katrina? Didn't Matress Mack want to buy them?I saw that sign today. That apartment complex has recently been refurbished, but I'm not sure how "nice" it really is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Briar Forest and Wilcrest is ahead of the curve! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
