Condemned Crestway House Faces City Action
The city ordered the Crestway property condemned after a fire and long-title disputes. Bank of America holds ownership via foreclosure, with former owner Mike Friesen disputing the title and intending to challenge it in court while the commission gave 60 days to repair or raze. Friesen argued the chain of title is defective and that the property could be valuable if cleaned and repaired once ownership is clarified. If unaddressed, the city may demolish at the owner's cost.
