Very interesting, the very city that tried to sieze the property from the owner, then eveicted all of the tenants--removing all sourcce of income from the owner, who worked with a shady real estate speculator (whose son owned the demolition company that was poised to take the building down) then kept the owner out, and allowed the beginning 8 years of vandalisim and neglect now is getting up in arms now that "the owner claimed ownership".
The city needs to pay for the demolition, and it can't happen too soon. It's a lawless place where scrappers work every day, and there is a good-sized fire every week, the DFD won't go in anymore, they will shoot water at it from a safe distance, that's all.
File this one under "posturing from city hall".
