Your house is crap
Today's theme negativity. I must be in a mood.Anyway, I hope my host has been able to find, or will be able to find, a MICCO survey done in the late 1960s of Shaw houses. I saw parts of the survey and hopefully the complete survey is located somewhere in the George Washington Univ archives.
From the portion I saw, here's the deal. Each square was surveyed for the condition of the all the houses on that square. Unfortunately, what little I saw, a majority of houses where in poor condition, deteriorating or needing extensive repair. A small percentage were solid. Now, taking that to the next conclusion, if those houses weren't satisfactorily repaired or renovated, or if the renovations were as crappy as the one done on my house (renovated in the 80s), then y'all should be a little bit concerned about your house.
Have a pleasant weekend.
