Jamaica Avenue's million dollar pit of despair and graffiti

 

 On the day after the six-alarm fire that destroyed the homes above storefronts in Richmond Hill and taking pics of the charred windows on the buildings, strolling about 8 blocks east by Lefferts Blvd. there exists this unsightly gated wall protruding on the sidewalk next to a barber shop and a ministry. I call it a gated wall because it’s secured with a lock and chain.

 Unfortunately the wall itself wasn’t as resilient. As evident by this unsightly and hazardous profusion. Which is easily accessible to passerby, especially children.

This is another of those "forgotten" DOB sites that has hazardous violations that have been ignored by the DOB. Class 1 Immediately Hazardous situation and nothing is done. Which Community Board is this? Answer: Community Board 9 Queens

The City collection agencies fall down on their task, too.
