Chris,
I am appalled at the ongoings at 18 Ply. I would be pleased to go over there tomorrow and board it up with you and some neighbors, and send a bill to Freddie Mac. I will look at it asap. Email me if you think it is a good idea.

Chris,
Congratulations on your efforts on 18 Plymouth. Hopefully, enough of the right people are now working on the problem that some real progress can be made controlling any further access or damage until ownership can be moved into more responsible hands. The only other suggestion I have at the moment is to use some of the documentation that you have in hand to get flyers ("wanted posters") distributed to the various antique and architectural operations in the city and county (I understand a good deal of the city's interior architecture is in Clarence shops). Perhaps we can enlist ArtVoice's help with this so that buyers with a conscience might be moved to return (or resell) some of the stolen windows and mantels. The receiving end of these goods needs to receive some pressure to act more responsibly. We may want to consider a campaign that would get some of these operations to sign on to an agreement that they would purchase architectural items ONLY from reputable contractors and demo firms or individual's whose claim of ownership can be proved by some kind of address verification. At least then local retail buyers could be directed to the more responsible and responsive dealers.

Let's all stay in touch on what we are learning about the status of this property and efforts to secure it.

Cynthia
