Unsecured home; possible evidence of homeless use, and drug use.
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!!!!
House and property presents unsafe conditions, including: 1) exterior paint chipping (hazardous to young children and pregnant women) 2) unstable stone wall along sidewalk 3) overgrown weeds 4) large tree overhanging neighboring house 5) deteriorating foundation 6) porch seems to be falling away from house 7) overgrown branches on electrical wire 8) deteriorating roof/shingles Example photo provided as attachment.

I rent from Pendragon properties at 3310 Odell DR. My living room is flooding gain as my back door does not properly close nor does it have a handle nor a lock. Pendragon has been avoiding me and refuses to do any work on my home. My vents are not all properly attached and I have bugs and moisture coming in. HANDS inspected and dis not pass my apartment and ordered repairs to be made, including MANY safety hazards involving the stairs, plumbing, and electrical. The home continues to fall apart as the elements seep in and Pendragon has made no efforts to fix anything.
Many of the building have extreme water damage leading to large amounts of mold. Just this weekend a ceiling in an apartment collapsed. The trim on the outside of the building is rotting. Something needs to be done about this place. Because send an inspector who is not best friends with management. They been getting away with this for years.
Several parks around building 5 are rotten, soffit and trim are falling off. Window trim and window guard railing is rotten across most of the building.
Water drains into the building because to slope facing away from building. Almost every building has broken or no gutters causing sidewalks, hallways, low level rooms to flood.
