Greenspoint reputation

GP is just not a safe area. Your building may have security but is the parking area patrolled. I don't want my car vandleized and have to deal with all those issues. I stopped going to the 290/610 HJJ because it is way too active... the last time I was there WAITING for the suite number a cop pulled in behind me and appeared to call in my license plate. I put it in reverse and he s l o w l y moved out of my way.

It is all about location. Good luck.

Let us know when you move.

Whenever I would go to the mall there I would run serpentine out to the car when I was finished shopping.

The mall is a ghost town.
I saw my first indie at the Hilton many years ago and have seen other there since.
I occasionally have business at some of the office towers in the area. They all seem to have security in the parking lot. I've never had a problem in Greenspoint proper.

I did have my truck broken into at the Academy that is near there and at the Post office on Shepherd. A fucking post office! I'm pretty sure the bastards followed me there from the bank. One of them came in while I was standing in line, He never got in the line just stood there looking around for a couple minutes and then left. I finished my business and walked to my truck to find the window smashed. Of course it all became clear after it happened.

Once you're in they have at least 30 mins to do their dirty work. No one ever just goes in to buy stamps. And even that could take awhile sometimes.

Maybe you need one of these?

A friend of mine had a business there and shut it down as soon as his lease was up. He called it the Jekyll and Hyde neighborhood.

I had to go into that area several times to see Summer Rayne when she first started out. Scared the crap out of me.

Greenspoint also referred to as Gunspoint has a well deserved reputation for being a high crime area. Violent crimes that is, nothing to do with what we do here. It appears you are just getting the fallout of that reputation. Good luck though. Originally Posted by H.Hardhat
