I once lived in a house still referred to as "The Slum" by its current residents. It's been continuously populated by members of the men's (and sometimes women's) cross country team of my college. The porch has been on the verge of collapse since at least 1992, and one of the toilets once fell through a floor because of rot (thankfully with no one on it). The bugs aren't too bad, but if anyone cooks anything in one of the first floor apartments, the whole house smells. When I was last there about 5 years ago, the hole that I put in the wall by simply leaning against it was still there.
