People who live next to a Grant Hill property that frequently goes up in flames and has been taken over by squatters are thrilled a court is stepping in to see the eyesore cleaned up.

“I’m glad the city is doing something. I hope the owner is going to be held responsible in some way because it’s dangerous for the neighborhood,” said Megan Strom.

“I’ve seen a few fires in the middle of the night and they were quite scary like very big flames, fire trucks and the concern is always that the fire is going to catch the next house on fire.”A court order issued Wednesday requires a receiver to secure and clean the property and hire a contractor to either repair or demolish its buildings.

“I mean, it’s great because finally the city’s going to do something,” said Strom’s partner Israel Sanchez, who’s lived on the street for decades.On Saturday, when ABC 10News reporter Austin Grabish visited the property, a woman was sitting on the porch. A strong stench from piles of trash on the graffiti-filled property could be smelt from the sidewalk.
