HOLLAND, Commissioner ARTHUR F. COLEMAN, Deputy Commissioner 8 February 26, 1959 Hon. Council City of Saint Paul Dear Council Members: ROBERT A. LOWELL Supt. of Public Recreation Attention is directed to the unsatisfactory and dangerous condition of the brick veneer f ourplex building, approximate- ly 46 by 72 feet, located at 1605 Marshall Avenue, described as All of vacated north and south alley adjacent, all of East and West alley vacated, west one -half of Lot 8, and all of Lot 7, Block 8, College Park Addition. This building is vacant, not provided with permanent founda- tions, windows are broken out, temporary shores are in place in the basement, the stucco job is incomplete. Work on remod- eling into an eight apartment building has been at a standstill f 6r many months. The last known record owners are: Mathew N. Zell, 322 North Mississippi River Boulevard, St. Paul 4 and John Edmund Burke, Jackpot Motel, Las Vegas, Nevada. Mr. Howard Prodger, 1677 Fernwood Avenue, St. Paul 13,has filed a lien against the prop- erty. Danger Notices have been posted. We would like to have the Council set a hearing date, in accordance with Section 1.07 -2 (00r of the Saint Paul Legislative Code, as this section outlines j/�✓ procedure in the condemnation of dangerous structures. Yours truly, Alf H. Schroeder C ARCHITECT AHS..A r� LAW OFFICES A. H. MARKERT 900 MINNESOTA ■UILDINO TELEPHONE CA -2 -2322 ST. PAUL 1, MINN. April 6, 1959• To the honorable Mayor and councilmen of the City of St. Paul, Court House, St. Paul 2, Minn. Hon. Sirs: In re Building at 1605 Marshall Ave. I am taking the liberty of writing you with reference to the condemnation proceedings pending against the above designated build- ing. I am unable to appear before you and address you because I have recently been subjected to surgery on my throat and I am unable to speak well enough to appear, hence I respectfully request that you kindly post- pone condemnation action on this building as I believe with an oppor- tunity to discuss the matter with you I can convince you that such action will not be necessary. Another reason for requesting postpone- ment is that an action is pending in District Court by the City Attor- ney on behalf of the City to compel vacation of the 'turnaround' which was deeded to the City in exchange for vacation of the alley on the east side of the property in question. Failure of the property owner on the west side to remove his garage from this 'turnaround' has been the cause of delay in the process of rehabilitating the apartment build- ing in question and I am convinced that action by the City will result in the removal of the garage so that the City's 'turnaround' can be available for use as contemplated. The City's action will not be heard before the Court until April 9th next. Mr. Zell, the owner, bought this property through the writer from St.. Maxk's Church and lis buying and paying for it has lifted a considerable problem from the parish and, needless, to say, from the shoulders of the writer. Therefore, I feel obligated to do everything in my power} to give him an opportunity to solve his numerous problems and to improve his property as contemplated.. by AHM.ga Your cooperation in this respect will be appreciated Yours.very truly, �lY� - April 69 1959: ' To the honorable Mayor and councilmen.• , F -of the .
