Description

The 'Castle House' at 141 Clifton (vacant for a few months now-foreclosure) has been broken into. After being alerted by neighborhood kids, I inspected, found back door knob and frame broken, called police and they responded. They are notifying LCI But not willing to wait till Monday and with the officers permission I screwed the broken door shut (and also all the other doors.) I've instructed all the kids on the block to keep away and notified many of the adults. Hopefully someone can pick this place up soon because it is gorgeous but deteriorating rapidly. Meantime, it is NOT SAFE and should be avoided and neighbors please remain vigilant.

Q. Is the problem blight (trash, etc) outside, or is it a problem with the building (illegal use, housing code violation, etc)?
A. Building Problem
