Historic neighbourhoods in downtown are a big draw for both tourists and locals, with their picturesque cobblestone streets and old buildings. But it’s the very things that make them so attractive that can also turn into a nightmare and leave you with regretful surprises. The charm of these old neighbourhoods can be a real curse when it comes to uneven ground and old infrastructure that just hasn’t kept up with modern safety standards. At first glance, things might seem fine but it’s often later that people find out their injuries are a heck of a lot worse than they thought and that the people who are supposed to help aren’t quite as helpful as they should be.
