In the Timberwood neighborhood near 59 and Rankin, residents are dealing with major disruptions after a property previously owned by a deceased individual was sold and developed into an Amazon warehouse. The warehouse, which sat vacant for some time, recently became operational, bringing a flood of Amazon trucks into the area.
The sudden increase in traffic has caused blocked streets and congestion, leaving Hood News Peeps struggling to get in and out of the neighborhood. HPD has been sent to help manage the situation, but residents have been told to leave earlier to avoid delays—a solution many feel is inadequate.
Neighbors are documenting the traffic chaos with photos and videos, urging others to share evidence as they push for better solutions to ease the strain on their community.
