If you're refering to crime, Seaboard Station is incredibly safe. There used to be a large, barrack style 1950's public housing project there called Halifax Court surrounded by vacant warhouses and acres of vacant lots that used to be a mill village. After an incredibly successful HOPE VI redevelopment, crime there is virtualy non-existent. My understanding is that the year before Halifax Court was razed there were over 1000 police calls from Halifax Court, and it least one was an officer being shot. The year after the redevelopment there was only one police call, and it was over some kids breaking a car window with a rock or something.
On a side note, Raleigh should be very proud of Capital Park. It truly is a national model of how successful HOPE VI can be and the inmpact it can have on a community. It also holds the record (until Chavis Heights is completed) as the fastest and most efficient HOPE VI in the country. It says a lot for the RHA, the city, and everyone else that worked on it bc they are incredibly complex projects to complete. Tenants have to be relocated and tracked, there are many layers of financing, soft costs are astounding, utilities, streets, and infastructure have to be realigned, etc. etc. On top of it all, it has served as a catalyst for all of the other development around it.
^ a couple of minor corrections: Capital Park is a mixed income development but not truly mixed use. It is my understanding that while the styles of housing are different, all the housing in Capital Park is rental. Some are subsidized and some are market rate. There is no assisted living. Parkview Manor (the large brick apartment building) consists of 90 units of independent elderly apartments (there are no medical or nutrition services such as in assisted living).
