I’m sure I’m wrong on this one but the thought crossed my mind.

I don't think that had anything to do with it. You actually see less of that sort of thing in the parks. But as we know with any new development, if they don't want the homeless there, they won't be there. The best way to deal with the homeless problem is to handle it so people aren't on the street in the first place.
