    I grew up right by there too. 20 years ago it was a fairly normal looking house, but I think the more people bitched about stuff the more he went out of his way to piss them off

    I was just thinking the same thing. The county inspector is due out any day now to ensure there isn't a car repair business in operation.

    We did the temporary electrical there and will be wiring the new house afaik.

    The owner is not getting any government cheese unavailable to anyone else, just rebates on some energy efficient "upgrades". He did get a helluva price on the property though.

    That's the best view on Google Maps. It hasn't been that overgrown for some time. You could easily see the purple house with no problems.

    funny thing was back like 10ish years ago, a friend of my uncle was an inspector for the city, and someone was trying to report the building condemned. he went and inspected the property, inside and out, and found nothing major. the house and yard looked unkept but most everything important was taken care of. house wasn't in disrepair until like 5 or so years ago, and it fell apart fast.
