POST OFFICE SITE EYESORE HAZARD IS BACK

When the developers of the former Maplewood Village Post Office site began initial demolition of the building in January with the removal of windows, the open space left behind drew complaints as a

hazard and eyesore.

The Township said it would keep the property in check and make sure there were no code violations. But they never required JMF Properties, which is constructing the new building, to board up the window spaces above the first floor.

Well, the flimsy sheets placed over the upper windows do not appear to be doing the job as we found today. Hopefully this will be corrected soon.
