A plan by the Byker Bridge Housing Association to take over and renovate four council houses on Ruskin Road in Swalwell has collapsed.
The housing association had planned to take on the properties but increased costs and extra work led to the Housing Association pulling out of the scheme.
Local Councillors Chris Ord, Mary Wallace and Peter Craig are pressing Gateshead Council for an early decision on the future of the four boarded up houses, which have been attracting vandalism and anti-social behaviour.
