good article in this weeks Business Week about how Cleveland and Bufflao are taking a tough stance against absentee landlords and more importantly - lenders who are in the process of foreclosing on properties - MAXIMUM fines, demolition and donating of properties to local charities.
Things like those boarded up buildings on 4th and kinglsey, the metropolitan, the old phoneix on cookman, the M&K, ritas deli and more. They cited a study by temple that shows a good home with 150 yards (or feet) of an empty property is reduced by $7600 - my guess that it would be more. article: http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/08_02/b4066046083770.htm? chan=search Yahoo!
