Maybe whoever is paying the taxes and mowing the law every few years could secure the building, including blocking off the porch. The city should have the contact info.
The person that moves the law every blue moon is one of the so called “owners”. He is a descendant of the original owners the Brogan’s and O’Shaughnessy’s. He does not pay the taxes. A neighborhood researched the property tax owed and it was well over $200,000. If this lawn mower really cared about the property he should start the probate process. If you check the property data base you will see the last time it switched ownership was 1937! Maybe we neighbors need to unite and make something happen with this neighborhood hazard!

The items on the porch are a complete Sony dolby surround
system with speakers. It appears someone's giving it away.
Someone should take them and put to good use.
