Cleveland GISDescription This dataset provides a detailed record of active building condemnations in the city. Condemnation occurs when a property is deemed unsafe or uninhabitable under building codes, often due to structural issues or health hazards. A condemned building doesn't automatically mean demolition—property owners may initiate repairs or challenge the decision in court. This set combines data from the city's Accela system with historical condemnation records previously maintained by Building & Housing (B&H) before the adoption of current Accela violation workflows. Data Glossary See the Attributes section below for details about each column in this dataset. Original fields (without the DW prefix) show the unmodified [ward/parcel/etc] as recorded in the source system at the time of collection. DW -prefixed fields are enhanced versions, standardized, validated, or enriched by the data warehouse for easier analysis.
