Carpet thrown-in! How a fly-dumped pile grows over time on South Perry Ave.
Several rolls of discarded carpeting and additional trash were added to the site since our last drive-by. Since we are still calibrating and tweaking the workflow on this site, it has been rather interesting to see how a neglected, fly-dumped…
There’s something about Perry (5800 South)
A toilet base (wrapped in plastic) was recently added to the pile above. This particular section of South Perry is starting to become rather popular with fly dumpers. The other interesting issue to note is the “latency factor” relative to…
Back to S. Wabash, just South of 63rd Street
Back to this familiar location to see ho things are looking. Not really surprised, but we have some good ideas. Future updates will be forthcoming.
Trash on the ground in the 5000 block of S. Indiana Ave.
When you see this in every direction, it’s easy to get discouraged and begin to feel overwhelmed.
Tall weeds and embedded trash near 4900 S. Racine Ave.
The embedded trash is more of an issue as opposed to the weeds.

This is a classic example of a block with recurring issues. The vacant, City-owned lot does little to help the cause. It wouldn’t be significant if the block didn’t have housing, which it does on the other end. This can…
Wabash continues to have serious latency issues near 6100 South
Some issues go unresolved for extended periods of time. When one takes a block-by-block approach, it is easy to notice that this particular section of Wabash has significant latency issues. We recently modified the site’s code to more effectively track…
Abandoned scrap wood and additional debris near 58th & S. Perry
A robust pile of fly-dumped wood (w/nails) and additional construction-related debris. This has been in place for some time, now, but the photo was just now posted… This can be totally rectified with communal support.
Fly dumping near the 5800 Blk. of S. State St.
This definitely jumped out at us. Fly dumping tends to occur in areas where the is an abundance of embedded filth (trash). Tracking latency is one way to help target problematic areas. Our posts now indicate the amount of time…
Embedded trash near 48th & King Dr.
The trash has become embedded in this particular location. Over time, the items will get bleached by the sun as additional debris accumulates. This can definitely be dialed out.
