No one seems to be able to help on this. The building has been vacant for at least 7 years, and the new owners (an LLC) have left it in the condition you see in my previous post since they bought it (or transferred to LLC) in March 2017, and in the condition below since removing the siding last week (no other work). According to the muni code, this is a fire hazard:


? 254-21. - Vacant or boarded structures.

[Added 9-8-1988 by Ord. No. C-807; amended 5-14-2014 by Ord. No. 14-045 ]

A. Any residential or commercial building or structure in the City of Jersey City remaining vacant or boarded for a period exceeding six (6) months shall be deemed a fire hazard and unsafe.

B. If any residential or commercial building or structure remains vacant or boarded for more than six (6) months, the Director of Housing Code Enforcement or his or her designee shall serve upon the owner, agent or person in control of the building or structure a written notice describing the building or structure and requiring the owner, agent or person in control of the building or the structure to abate this condition by taking one (1) of the following corrective measures within six (6) months of the date of written notification.

(1)Actual and legal occupancy of the building or structure, which occupancy shall be made only after obtaining a certificate of occupancy.

(2)Submission of a fully executed and binding contract of sale for the building, which contract shall contain a clause advising the prospective purchaser that occupancy must be achieved within six (6) months of the service of the written notice specified above.

(3)Demolition of the building or structure, upon obtaining the necessary demolition permit(s).

(4)Any other action required or necessary to render the building or structure safe and in a habitable condition.

If Amazon, Home Depot, or some other random website doesn't sell it cheaper than a stinky plumbing Central, you don't need it.

Problem getting vacant buildings secured in your neighborhood, too? This one's been unsecured for several weeks, and left in this condition for months with the current owner (years previously):
