Wasn't exactly a neighborhood... picture a building as long as two football fields, with three levels, and each level has only two ways in and out via a concrete ramp in the middle and a set of stairs at the far end. Passing each 'apartment' is a 4 foot wide concrete 'pathway' alot like a cheap motel balcony. A friend told me it was the way they used to do affordable housing for the inner city so that cops could raid and no one could get away.

Edit: oh and people were out on this balcony partying, I had to shimmy through loud drunken drugged asses to get to the guy's apartment which if course was nowhere near either entrance LOL
