Wrecking Cincinnati, 12/13/07

RIP: 4125 Fergus St, Northside
Two-family

DOB: 1880
Died: December 2007
Cause of death: A crumbling porch, broken windows, and deteriorating roof, siding, gutters and downspouts. It was condemned in November 2006. Letters to the building owners were returned as undeliverable, and it appears that the house was abandoned. The demolition is the result of a stepped-up code enforcement blitz in the neighborhood in October, causing it to be declared a public nuisance.
