Court-ordered demolition of buildings on the former MX Liquor site at 15th Street and Cliff Avenue is the ultimate penalty for years of nuisance violations.
Mr Gilbertson is a great man, have known him for years, this is a shame what the city is doing to his property. these old buildings are NOT an eye sore, and the property had plans to restore them, but the city government forced him to spend money now, rather than wait for him to save up the money. The two homes are in awesome shape, and should have been preserved. This is all b.s The Dakota Scout should have defended this mans property, NOT the city itself. This is what happens in a tyrannical system where government can just bulldoze your property. PROPERTY RIGHTS should be protected.

So, the next question is when is the property on the west side of Phillips Ave and the north side of 33rd St going to come up for review?
Nearly 40 years? the City of Sioux Falls is way to lax when it comes to code enforcement.
"Eyesore" is an understatement. Good for the city and that neighborhood.
