Lachine borough moves in on neglected building
A 47-unit building in Lachine hasn’t had heating or hot water for two months. The borough finally asserted itself and started making repairs. Like the owner of that decrepit South Shore mall, the landlord here has been ignoring fines, but the item explains how this man will lose his building if he doesn’t reimburse the borough for necessary repairs or pay his fines.

There’s a big difference of course between an unoccupied commercial building and a building with people living in it. You can literally die of cold. No such problems for that decrepit mall.

I’m surprised some of the pipes haven’t frozen and popped. Maybe it hasn’t been cold enough for a long enough stretch.
