It was demolished in 2011,[2] with the ultimate plan of redevelopment into a mixed-income community, although as of 2018, development has not yet occurred. Built in 1970 over a former landfill in the city's far northwest corner and is surrounded by warehouses and light industry. It was poorly built and the authority moved tenants out of some apartments because of chronic sewage backups. Out of 1,700 residents, 1,025 were under 19 years old. Ninety-eight percent of the households were headed by women, and the average age of grandmothers there was 32. Ms. Hoke said records indicated that only 42 of the residents held jobs. Crime was so ferocious at the Bankhead Courts the mail carriers had to have a police escort making rounds.
