PITTSBURGH — Channel 11 is checking back in with folks in Observatory Hill who are worried about a worsening landslide that has caused the city to condemn another home.
The first house on Semicir Street was condemned last February. Just a few weeks ago, another home was condemned and the homeowner forced to evacuate against his will.
There are at least two other homes on that street that are scheduled to be torn down because of the landslide and the road caving in.
Channel 11's Courtney Brennan talked to neighbors who are worried that the street is unsafe and that their homes might be the next to go.
"It keeps dropping and dropping and now the sidewalk's completely buckled," Shirley White said. "We're hoping we're all okay. But if not, there's not many houses left on this side."
Brennan reached out to the city about the status of the landslide and if the hillside and road are safe.
"The Semicir matter is currently the subject of a lawsuit and thus the City cannot comment," the city said in response.
