Albany - - Another dilapidated building in Albany is coming down.

Judge Willie Weaver just ordered the city to demolish a home at 805 N. Madison Street.

It's one of several homes on the city's to-do list.

Another structure at 509 S. Cleveland Street will have to be boarded up until the owner gets out of jail.

The city is also looking at an abandoned home on 429 W. Lincoln Avenue.

Judge Weave gave the owner of that property some extra time to clean it up before granting the city power to demolish it.
