I've got an idea . . .

Based on Page 1A and 9A (local section front page).

Instead of suing the loony guy and then selling off his buildings to pay the fines for not cleaning them up, why not have them declared historic landmarks? Then they would have to be kept in their current grubhole status because they would be important pieces of Quincy history, the city would have some more archictectural landmarks to add to its brochures, and everybody would be happy.
