Wrecking Cincinnati, 4/14/10


Mixed-use
DOB: Between 1860 and 1880
Died: July 2009
Cause of death: Severe neglect, leading to damage by the elements. Utilities had been shut off for several years (water since 1997), and it and surrounding properties had become centers for drug sales, prostitution, and the illegal dumping of garbage, old furniture, and construction materials.

The buildings were first condemned in October 2006 and March 2007, respectively.

Criminal cases against owner Charles Reed appear to have been dismissed last August, since the buildings were no longer there.

835 Bank Street was assessed at $9,650 at the time of demolition, with the building valued at $350. 837 Bank Street was assessed at $6,990 at the time of demolition, with the building valued at $1,820.
