They also have a pigeon issue in the same building. The roof is slumping, there is a whole in the stoop, and there is no sign of anything happening to fix it. If you go to propertyshark.com and type in the address(Which I will not provide) you can see that it has not been really taken care for over 20 years. There is a woman that goes in from time to time, but I can't image what she is doing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21554899.post-22293409205347434602008-01-02T17:45:00.000-08:002008-01-02T17:45:00.000-08:00Niksixart: Just use the Contact link on the right ...Niksixart: Just use the Contact link on the right hand side of the blog to contact me.

But, for the sake of argument, let's go your way: it's a squirrel. So, that building is in much better shape than I thought, right? It's not a rat-infested public hazard, it's a squirrel-infested public hazard! Call off the DOB! The point of the post is the old building is in need of saving an a landlord intervention.Brooks of Sheffieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18297071358029060908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21554899.post-22503713264103176062007-12-31T06:01:00.000-08:002007-12-31T06:01:00.000-08:00i have to go with BB on this one, it's definitely ...i have to go with BB on this one, it's definitely a squirrel.Jeremiah Mosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11791516443125872364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21554899.post-91434531019757971752007-12-31T05:38:00.000-08:002007-12-31T05:38:00.000-08:00BB: I and my friend, the old lady, looked at it a ...BB: I and my friend, the old lady, looked at it a long time, and agreed it was a rat. It looked like a rat. It behaved like a rat. It had a fatness I've seen in rats, but never in squirrels.
