Rumor has it--there is an offer!




And it's not the City of Middletown.

How many public dollars are involved?

Define "public."  Do you mean city dollars?

I mean dollars provided by us taxpayers, regardless of from which pocket they take it!!! Angry

Could this “fan” of Alicia Silverstone be the mystery buyer??? (He is also rumored to be a friend of Marty Kohler.)

At least someone is showing an interest in maintaining the house...unlike the Finkleman family.

very cool to hear
 
I actually stopped by and looked into the home at 502 S Main---
What a mess--very sad.
 
Wouldn't want to be responsible for restoring either mansion.

I really resent your statement.
If it wasn't for Harry it wouldn't be standing at all.
He restored and saved many old houses and buildings in this town.
Also remember that Harry told the City NOT to put the roof on downtown.

Atleast they are saving Middletown treasures and want to do good for the property, anyone agree or disagree

This young person appears to be a part-time server at a chain restaurant in Cincinnati. He does not appear to have the funds to maintain the property, let alone to restore it.
 
Alone he has no shot at pulling off this deal.  He is likely nothing more than a "front" for someone who is "connected," such as Kohler.  Look for public funds to be shoveled into this property by the truckloads, first to keep the riff-raff away from the upper crust's precious S. Main St. Snob District; second to allow funds to be siphoned into the pockets of city hall Tamany types.

Just because people are not rich dosent mean they can't do somthing to make a impact, just becase it might take long for this person to have it finished doesn't mean they can't do it, and just because your poor doesn't mean not care about what you have and where you live and not take care of it an live like trash, let's start making the people that let there house waste away and bring down everyone elses home value just becase they are to lazy to maintain there stuff and throw there trash all over, we need to take a stand and never back down make them take care of there property or get a fine and not a 1000 dollar fine a 100 fine where you know they can pay it and hopfuly learn that less money will be spent in the long run if you take care of your stuff and buy stuff that's not cheap and goin to fall apart in 2 days cheaper isn't always better

Based on what?  Have you heard of the internet?
 
This bozo couldn't even buy a cheapie car without lieing and going to a subprime lender.  Want me to tell you the make and model and the dealers?
 
Yet you want me to believe that he can get a $400K loan plus pay the huge utility bills and do a million bucks worth of restoration, all on the tips from Max & Erma's (part-time, yet)? 
 
Sure, he can do that, and I'm goin to live to be 100! NOT!
 
This kid is a front, nothing more than a puppet for someone getting ready to pick the public's pocket.

Ooooooh.  A facebook page!  That means this must be the real deal or you couldn't possibly having a facebook page.
 
Did you ask Frank Q. first to be sure that it was okay to do this?
