Wrecking Cincinnati, 3/17/09

2802 Euclid Avenue, Corryville
Three-family
DOB: 1880
Died: December 2008
Cause of death: Severe structural failure at the rear of the building, missing siding, rotten box gutters, disintegrating porches, litter, and numerous calls for City barricades.

The Corryville Community Council alleged that prostitution was going on at the property, and City inspectors found vagrants leaving the property during a site visit. It was condemned in March 2007 and declared a public nuisance in October 2007.

It appears that the original owner is deceased, and ownership now shows that the property is held by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and Wells Fargo.
