There are homeless people living in makeshift structures in the backyard of this property. There is trash everywhere. There are vehicles everywhere. This needed to be addressed immediately. I don't know if the home is abandoned or what is going on. You can see all of this from the b line trail.
This is not an unsafe building, but an, in my eyes. soon to be unsafe structure: the wooden pedestrian bridge along E Second Street. One part has started to sag dangerously. Next thing you know, it will fall in. The end that is right next to S Rose Ave.
A part of the old stone retaining wall on the Lincoln side of this lot is just about to collapse. It looks like it's leaning at a 46 degree angle. If anyone is sitting on it or just walking by when it does fall, someone is going to get sued.
Tarp covered plywood structure between end building and Polly Grimshaw trail. Can be seen from the trail. Location is approximate.
The front porch rails are broken out, the rails appear to be unstable, sagging and possibly rotted. The porch sets up high above grade where the porch rails are out. There is a young child living in the house. This presents a danger. Jeff Jones/Pendragon owns this property. This has been the case for the past 2+ years. This family is a new renter and this was not repaired between renters.
