Description
The Burger King in Menands has been vacant for approximately 3 years now.
The sign says, "Closed for Renovations", but it has been sitting vacant since about 2010.
Is the City of Menands assessing fines on Burger King for every day this store is not opened?
Are the taxes being paid? Is anyone checking this stuff out so that the taxpayers don't keep losing money on all these derelict properties around here? Who is in charge of this?
Is this store ever going to reopen, or is it going to be abandoned forever like all the other businesses in this town?

Great. Just what this area needs: More blight. Wonderful.
Well, hopefully SOMEONE of importance will read this and at least TRY to do something about it. Kinda reminds me of how the KFC building in Latham burnt down in 2004, yet it's STILL not rebuilt. It is absolutely CRIMINAL how once-prosperous locations right in the middle of cities and towns are allowed to sit vacant and drain the city tax coffers dry because the business goes belly-up for whatever reason. And what's worse is that the regular old citizens are forced to pick up the tab for decades because nobody is DOING anything about it!
Either KNOCK IT DOWN and turn it into an empty lot and put grass there, or REBUILD!!! Enough of this!!!
