Window has fallen out of the S. side of the house. The structure looks unsafe.
1016 w Kirkwood is unsafe. It is for sale and has been abandoned for over a year. It has no locking door on the back but rather a broken single pane storm door held by a concrete brick. Inside there the house is dangerous to enter. There is standing water in the basement that has been there for over a year. It is growing mold and mosquitoes. The walls are down to the studs. There are holes in the floors and ceilings. We have have had to call the police due to intoxicated individuals entering at night. I am afraid someone will get hurt or die by falling into one of the holes or the standing water directly across from the back door.
Back door is always unlocked. House has had no one living in it for years and it in general not habitable. At various times homeless are inside using drugs and sleeping.
Says property next door has been abandoned over a year. Metal sticking out of the walls and children play there. Safety hazard. See AO's #4710, 6442, 7115 also. Pls continue to monitor and let Mr. Jones know what we can or can't do.

Light pole in front of superior shoes on the east side of the square is loose at the base.

This house has been vacant for years. The door is standing open, and the floor is rotten. A child could wander in, and fall through the floor. Southwest corner of 16th & Woodburn Avenue. There are rats on the property.
Mr. Eckert called to report that the property at 1022 N. Woodburn has been vacant for years. He reported that the yard is full of trash, tires, broken glass, rats, etc. His concern is health related since he lives next door.
