Park View Inn construction?

[Dog Walker]

The building is a zombie.  Thing just won't die and seems to eat brains.

For those of you who may have missed this prior post, I offer it again!

Makes me wonder why that Hotel downtown, which appears to me to be a hazard, is still standing? Evidently there appears to be two sets of rules........single homes go in the blink of an eye, but a multi-room ex-hotel dwelling can hang around forever! WTF?

Ok, here goes, my 100th post! I guess you're speaking of the Park View Inn above. It not only appears to be a hazard, it most definitely is! Sometime ago, more than a year, I was taking my usual route on foot past this hideous complex and I suddenly heard metal sliding. I stopped in my tracks to figure out what was happening and sure enough a portion of the roof came sliding in my direction. I quickly determined I was far enough away on the sidewalk to avoid being t-boned but it was not out of the realm of possibility that anyone venturing any closer for any reason might have been clobbered!

Imagine being homeless, down on your luck, sleeping off the Colt 45 or what have you, only to be rousted still pickled and now also skewered!

Hours later on my return trek, that long metal section had been carted off, otherwise I would have called it in! In hindsight, I wish I had raised cain about this long neglected hazard! How long before parts begin sliding off Berkman II?

TAKE IT DOWN!!! TAKE IT ALL DOWN!!!!

It looks like most of the rooms were exposed by removing the outer walls.You can see Graffiti in the rooms from the front,and large sheets of metal mesh screening are visible and ready for installation on the second floor in the back.

If I happened to be walking by and something fell off that building and on me..............I would be sueing the owners and the COJ for allowing it to stay as is! But thats just me...........IMHO!

Our city leaders obviously don't care if the Park View building remained an eyesore for the next 1,000 years...  TEAR IT OWN ALREADY!

I still stick to my Idea of blowing up the building for an Action Movie....
That way we can buy the DVD and enjoy seeing this eyesore Blow up again and again.

We obviously need to crack it's head open & feast on the goo inside. Immortality here I come!

i must be just about the only person around here who likes the building.

at the very least, i hope it stays up until after i've had a chance to break in and poke around--i've seen photos ov the inside, and there's some awesome decay in there.

[Springfielder]

There's really nothing to see inside, it's been emptied and vandalized, not to mentioned burned. It's an eyesore, at best. I have seen some sort of work going on the past week or so, (some company, never did quite catch the name, but it has something to do with water) workers and trucks have been there on the Ocean street side, and some kind of pump on the street that faces the park

[CS Foltz]

Any takers on whether or not........those sewer lines have been cut? Of course not! Where oh where is Code Enforcement when they are really needed? Oh wait.............COJ has two sets of rules .....one for the taxpayers and another for their GOB network members! Makes me wonder just who they are paying off?

Gee whiz boys and girls, and here I though that place was destroyed in a freak boating accident.
