-This house/property has been unoccupied for the ENTIRE ~20 years that I have lived on the adjacent property at 2618 S Milton Dr.
-The house is deteriorating. No maintenance has been done to the house for ~10 years.
-The garage, as you can see from the pic, is dilapidated and likely on the verge of collapsing.
-The back yard has been growing wild/is with no maintenance for ~10 years, with a large portion being a thicket of Locust and other small trees.
-There are very large Silver Maple trees that are a significant hazard to neighboring properties.
-The garage, area under the decaying deck, etc. are almost certainly providing shelter for rats, racoons, skunks, groundhogs, etc.
The blight seen here is unacceptable in Broadview which has become more a very nice, presentable neighborhood in the 20 years I have lived here.

There is a young child living in the house. This presents a danger. Jeff Jones/Pendragon owns this property. This has been the case for the past 2+ years. This family is a new renter and this was not repaired between renters.

The gutters and siding of the building are loose and falling off many building. The 545 South Park ridge building is completely unattached from the building causing a 3 story tall drainpipe to swing in slight wind. This is a hazard for anyone walking near the building as it could fall or fly off at any moment. Several other buildings have broken siding that causes nails to fall across the sidewalk and parking lots. This is a hazard!!!!
