This is half of Holyoke. And this is the only building you report? Lol

This is not half of Holyoke. Please.

With all due respect, Sherry. Half of Holyoke's buildings are not abandoned, unsecured eyesores. There are some buildings more unsightly than this one, and as I understand it most of them are in process of demolition, restoration, or some action being taken by the city. This building has been deteriorating for years with no progress. Vandals are getting in, spraying graffiti in the windows. it's only a matter of time before someone tries to burn it down.

As this is a code enforcement issue we will have the enforcement office look into this issue. Thanks for writing.

Sherry this is not the Mass Live forums. Please try to make your comments about Holyoke a little more positive and constructive.

An inspection has been completed and communication has been sent to the owner to resolve this issue. We will update here in the future. Thank you.

Drove by today and the building looks exactly the same. Can we get that update, Building Dept?

This is a photo I took today of the gate onto the property. It doesn't look very secure.

isn't this a Eric Suher building? let go after absentee landlords and take our buildings back.if a they can't move in a designated about of time...instead of letting them deteriorate slowly....look at the Essex House .
let's avoid the mess and take it back now!

Yeah, most people don't realize how fast a building can deteriorate. The Die Cut Card is currently savable but could end up like the Essex in just 3 years. It's painful to watch our architectural heritage crumble, and tax base get torn down.

Agree with VanDog and Olivia. This City has some fantastic architecture. Let's not let it foolishly go down the tubes. Make the property owners take care of them.

Hello. Any update on this vacant building? Nothing has been done to improve the property. Has the owner registered in accordance with the Blighted Building ordinance?

Building has been repaired and occupied
