TACO arrived early on the scene in Westwood last Friday to witness the eviction of 2 people who had been squatting for months in a house slated to be torn down for...

We watched as two people's possessions were swept into a dumpster and couldn't help thinking of the city's many housing issues being swept under the proverbial rug.
