Single-family
DOB: 1918
Died: July 2009
Cause of death: Deteriorated roof, gutters and downspouts; structural damage due to moisture; ceiling collapse; brick damage; unsafe stairs; and a rotted front porch. The property was frequented by drug users and squatters.
It was condemned in March 2007, declared a public nuisance in September 2007, and razed by the City following asbestos abatement.
The property was one of many local blighted properties owned by Evelyn Baskin. In April 2007, Baskin claimed that she didn't have the funds for rehabilitation or a Vacated Building Maintenance License. A month later, a potential buyer had been identified. The sale never went through when it was discovered that he didn't have any money.
A 2007 criminal case filed against Baskin could not be found in the Clerk of Courts database.

Nice house at one time.
These properties of E. Baskin were in bad shape way before she died. Some people should not be property owners.
Unfortunately there are quite a few other properties in Mt. Auburn that need better owners and upkeep. Sadly, the empty lots are better than the ugly properties in these cases, but the original features and stature of those properties are irreplaceable.
