Growing homeless camp near Providence Place

Look, it’s winter and I get that it’s hard for folks out in the streets. But there’s a camp behind Providence Place Mall that is getting a bit concerning. My neighbors and I have to walk past this thing every morning and evening to get to the train station and there was a man acting aggressively toward pedestrians in that camp the other evening (including myself). The camp is growing and I’m beginning to feel unsafe. Trash is spilling out into the sidewalk and down the street and there are beer bottles and needles showing up everywhere. There was a man standing out there just having a piss on the side of the road at 10 am yesterday. I hate to be that person but I’m a single female walking alone and in the dark most days. I’m concerned that it’s just going to keep growing and the passageway will be too unsafe to use. Any thoughts? (Edit to add emphasis since some folks apparently cannot read.)
