SAN JOSE — Work crews are expected to complete by year’s end the cleanup of a notorious downtown San Jose eyesore whose fires, worsening blight and a gunshot attack have alarmed neighbors.
The blighted site is at the corner of North Fourth Street and East St. John Street in downtown San Jose. The outcome for the property could show the extent to which municipal officials are resolved to tackle eyesores in the Bay Area’s largest city.
