In 2006, Lucas County began selling off its overdue tax certificates to a New Jersey company named Plymouth Park Tax Services, a subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase. It also operates under the name Xspand.
The company, once run by the former governor of New Jersey, James J. Florio, was sold to Bear Stearns and then absorbed into JPMorgan after Bear’s collapse last year. Today, Plymouth Park is one of the largest players in the tax-lien business.

CLEVELAND — It was the first library Andrew Carnegie donated to the city of Cleveland more than a century ago. However, it’s been a long time since people went inside the closed Broadway Avenue branch in Cleveland’s Slavic Village.
Now, Darl Schaaff, an Alaskan entrepreneur, is finishing up work inside as he converts it into The Darl Center for the Arts.
Schaaff explained the collection consists of 400 pieces of art he's accumulated over the years.
In December 2017, it was announced that Inca Tea owner Ryan Florio had purchased multiple parcels in Cleveland's Slavic Village Neighborhood. This brought hope that these properties would be renovated and the corner of East 55th and Broadway would be brought back to life.

The last update the community received was in 2023 with news that some of the properties would be demoed to make room for an apartment project, and while we waited that maintenance on these properties would be addressed ( https://neo-trans.blog/2023/05/11/big... ) A year after that meeting......the buildings that were part of that purchase continue to pose a danger to the community and there have been no further updates on the development of these properties. #AbandonedOhio#thisiscle#thisiscleveland#slavicvillage#clevelandactivist#Cleveland#cle#slavicvillagecleveland#AbandonedCleveland#ittakesavillage
