Daily Dose of Blairmont 136

• 2809 Howard Street (VHS Partners LLC, November 2005, $35,000)

May 2008

It looks incredibly isolated at first, but in fact a massive retirement home stands just behind it, recently constructed by not-for-profit JVL Elderly Housing Corporation.




As for the house itself, Blairmont (yet again) let the City do its work for them -- it was boarded up in November 2007.

Blairmont owns several of the vacant lots surrounding the house.
