There were bed bugs at the Glen Hazel subsidized housing facility, but the two organizations responsible for ongoing renovations gave conflicting accounts on if the infestation halted construction.

Some residents reached out to PublicSource about the issue, and they were on the same page.

“The contractors aren’t allowed to work in the mess, but we’re allowed to live in the mess,” said Ralphina Coleman, a resident of the Bernice Crawley high-rise in Glen Hazel, a small neighborhood south of Hazelwood.

The bed bugs are the latest in a list of frustrations this year that residents felt at the high-rise for seniors and people with disabilities.
