The last resident in a Birmingham tower block says he feels isolated and vulnerable after waiting over two years for new council accommodation.
Ezekiel Hermon has lived in Saxelby House for 25 years. All other residents have been moved as part of demolition plans and he is being taken to court.
He lives in a two-bedroom flat and said he had not been offered suitable properties.
The city council said it sympathised and would continue to support him.
The tower block is being cleared to make way for more affordable homes in Birmingham, the local authority said.
