he family don’t want to let it go and don’t have the money to fix it.
frustratingly enough, conservationists have apparently tried to get the owner’s permission to work on it several times, but the owner refuses. i wonder if the argument could be made to the city that this would be a good opportunity for the exercise of eminent domain, given that i can’t imagine the owner gains any benefit from the house in its current condition?
