A once-grand mansion in the Hollywood Hills has fallen into disrepair, overtaken by graffiti artists and squatters who neighbors say are creating a dangerous environment. The abandoned property, owned by film producer John Powers Middleton, is attracting crime and posing a safety hazard to residents.
A Hollywood Hills mansion has become an eyesore after the property was taken over by taggers and squatters, according to new video released by FOX 11 Los Angeles. The abandoned mansion at the corner of Multiview and Mulholland, near the Universal City Overlook, is considered by neighbors to be a safety hazard. 'Every time we call, the police will come, and they'll clear it out.
The graffiti on the property follows the trend of the 'Tagger Tower' in downtown Los Angeles, a skyscraper project abandoned in 2019 and now covered in spray paint. The home is owned by John Powers Middleton, film producer and son of the Philadelphia Phillies owner John S. Middleton.'The California properties are owned by John Powers Middleton,' a spokesperson for the Philadelphia Phillies told Fox News Digital.
The Los Angeles Police Department did not immediately return Fox News Digital's request for comment.
