"Hazard for Playing Children: These vacant buildings in the 4200 block of DeTonty street are of concern to city building officials because they are next to the Mullanphy School playground and are being used by children at play. The two buildings have been partially wrecked by the State Highway Department in preparation for construction of Insterstate 44."
