What a waste. I cannot imagine the amount of work and money it would take to restore this small, derelict home. This building has been sitting empty for several years since it was originally sold.

I have seen the Landmark card used and often times it is not to the benefit of the owner. This is an idea for the city. If Landmark status is attained, how about some incentives to maintain, protect, build, sustain the property that could truly make it a Landmark and designate it for people to appreciate.

Landmark status is an honor that should be reserved for those buildings that are truly deserving - not just those that are old.
