Unpleasantness at the House of Beauty

The City of Hudson is set to auction this building—405 Warren Street—tomorrow at 10 a.m. The City was ready to sell it at auction a year ago, but litigation delayed the process. The court awarded title to the City several months ago, and earlier this year, the City posted a notice that tenants must vacate the building by May 15 or face eviction. Yesterday, however, when city treasurer Eileen Halloran took prospective bidders on a tour of the properties to be auctioned on Saturday, the tenants were still in place at 405 Warren Street, claiming to have no knowledge of their precarious situation.
