“Now Open” feather flags hanging over the sidewalk. Thank you!
Trash bags lying on ground by street. In view of Grant Street Inn.
Piles of trash and refuse all over property and lying against building. Popular restaurants/pubs nearby.
Sidewalk near NE corner of lot (along Cottage Grove) is becoming impassible due to invasive shrub overgrowth (an annual occurrence at this location). While they are cutting it back, they might as well also trim back the shrub on the SW corner of the same lot along Grant. It is just starting to be in the way.
North side of lot along alley is overgrown with huge vines growing up the trees (wintercreeper, ivy, etc.) that are a hazard. Also, bush honeysuckle and tree-of-heaven growing on east property line in the back near the alley, growing into neighboring property.
Lots of junk lying around unprotected from weather in backyard behind the garage including an old, rotted-out VW sitting near the NE corner of lot, all clearly visible from street and alley.
A car has been dumped in the yard behind this boarded-up home for what looks like years. However, now it is inviting others to dump debris near the car-including furniture.
On Saturday 17 May at 7:11pm, there was a vehicle parked right in the street without lights flashing and with no occupant - supposition is that it was a delivery person who thinks the rules don't apply to them. This is a *very* common occurrence at this particular location. Seems like with the police station so close, delivery drivers would hesitate to block streets like they do. Is it possible to talk to the management of the establishment about this? Or could there be an officer stationed there once in a while handing out tickets? I imagine you could make a lot of money for your office slush fund, and just doing it a few times might result in a long-term fix.
Many invasive plants (mimosa, tree-of-heaven, burdock, etc.) growing on the south and west side of this house. Property is habitually unkempt, but the general lax enforcement for Parker Rental properties has resulted in this location becoming truly a serious eyesore.
