Noting the broken glass, poor house condition and overall state of some of them. Depends what part of the city you're in, as the north end of Dunedin is where all the students live - it's an old area (as are other parts of the city), and this time of year there's a lot of huge parties as students prepare to leave. Can get very messy!!	nofam (9009)

Walking to Baldwin Street, I noticed a lot of broken glass on the ground. There was also a sawstika on the 'ball' monument on top of that hill overlooking the city	bob_doe_nz (92)

I'm sure the locals contribute as well to be fair. Saddest part is that it seems to be getting worse each year. :(	nofam (9009)

Its the landlords too, no maintenance on their houses . Then again seeing they rent to the students, its probably a losing battle anyway . But yeah, its noticeably shabby .	pctek (84)
