Buffalo Home Target of Community Shame Campaign Against Bank of America
The owner of 20 Sidway St. in Buffalo, New York died in 2007. Foreclosure proceedings were initiated in 2010, then the judgment was vacated and the process started over again. The house remains vacant. Except now there is a sign in the front lawn imploring Bank of America to "be a good neighbor" by completing the foreclosure process. It's the beginning of what is intended to be a "shame campaign," which will also include pickets and boycotts, against banks with zombie properties throughout the city. [8/26/15]
