 Overview
 Description
West Side of Windsor is the poor side, although this neighborhood looks ok, the placement of a Ford Engine plant in their back yard put the nail in the coffin for this settlement. The combined emmisions from the heavy industry in the area makes this a less than desireable place to lay your head. Although all abandoned buildings have been removed, the streets and a few foundations still remain. The area will eventually be paved over as nearby industrial parks expand.
