Pile of mattresses and bedding lying by sidewalk
Pile of mattresses and bedding lying by sidewalk
New tenants have been parking in and blocking N/S alley that abuts east side of property.
Garbage was picked up today but they only emptied the bins and left the ripped-open bags that were lying on the ground. Tenants have now moved out.

The street has been blocked for 42 hours.
Between 211 and 217 E. 10th Street there is an overgrowth that is blocking the sidewalk. I tried to upload a photo but it won't go through.
test there is a tall weed at 1122 Boogie Woogie avenue.
Retaining wall along alley is collapsing. House is close enough to wall that structural damage could occur. Property owner is the same as 427 N. Washington, which has also recently had a retaining wall collapse, but the owners just piled the cinder block back up and left it that way. That building is not so close to the wall as to create a hazardous situation - it is just an eyesore.
There is water constantly flowing out of the ground on the alley east of 213 E. Cottage Grove about 40 feet north of the street. The water is bubbling up and flowing south to the street then flowing east to Lincoln. When it was cold recently a glacier formed there that was dangerous to walk or drive on. It i now getting swampy there - still dangerous but in a different way. Both City Utilities and property owner were notified, but it is not clear if anyone has determined where the water is coming from. Good to check the meters in the area, e.g., 701 N. Lincoln, 700 N. Washington, 706 N. Washington for any unexpectedly high usage.
Please test the water leaking from this house for coliforms. It smells again. Water is in alley. See previous ureport case.
