Thanks for your interest. This is a landbank property scheduled to have been demolished last year. I talked to the landbank today, Sep 29, and was told it's on the list but demolition is not scheduled. The property is on the corner of Sycamore and Daleford. The sidewalk along the property on Daleford is impassible due to overhanging branches and shrubs. It is the property owner's responsibility (Landbank) to keep the sidewalk clear of debri and obstacles for the safety of pedestrians. It may be particularly important in this case, because there is no sidewak on the other side of the street, forcing pedestrians to walk in the street. The landbank's missioin in acquiring these delapidated houses, I understand, is to help stablize the housing stock in the city by demolishing or rehabing the properties. When vacant properties are left to lanquish in the meantime, they tend to accomplish just the oppisite in the short run. Otherwise it's a great plan!
