[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is no HOA in Glen Echo Heights so it is quite easy for those decaying properties to linger. However in recent years Montgomery County has had to respond to an increasing number of complaints fro newer residents. Not that the County does much. [/quote]

to be fair there is like 3 crappy houses left and maybe a half dozen of middle class but under utilized ones that no longer belong after that. There are far more 3mil homes than 600k, it doesn't really affect the fabric of the area[/quote]

I live in GEH and this is simply not true. While the rate of tear downs is increasing, there are way more than 3 "crappy" houses left. There are many. I'd put it in the dozens. I think I know the one the OP mentions, and it is only one eyesore among many. [b]Although it is an especially big one[/b]. I'd give it another decade before there are 3 left. [/quote]

That one, if we're talking about the same thing, is actually am illegally occupied building according to county codes. Not that the county would do anything about it.

If you are talking about the place in the Waukesha/Madawaska area, it's my understanding that there have been multiple complaints over the past few years years. It's obvious to everyone around the neighborhood that the place is unfit for habitation and should be condemned. Somehow the owner manages to skirt the inspectors. Maybe it's who the County sends out to look at it.

The house is infamous in the neighborhood.  A real blight.  [/quote]

That's sad especially when homes in GEH can run into the multi-million dollar range. [/quote]

Yes, it is so, so, so sad. It's devastating to think about those in multi million dollar homes having to be impacted  by a ramshackle house in the neighborhood. It's just so sad.[/quote]

It’s all perspective right, they complain about the one house with a relatively poor family while people in other parts of town complain about the concentrations of poverty. But everybody complains [/quote]
