🔥 Top Scoops in Louisville, KY

Owner Vincent Wright has a severely deteriorated one-story wood-frame structure at 805 S 31st St that’s been posted for emergency demolition after a 2025 building permit to rebuild expired and no work was completed. Inspectors report failing exterior walls and roof framing mostly removed (only the rear gable remains), so the house is considered an imminent collapse hazard endangering life and safety and was officially posted for emergency demolition.

What’s happening is a property maintenance demolition has been opened for 4406 S 1st St, with owner David Joyner listed on the record. The case is open and tied to recent site visits and a boarding order after failed inspections, and a structural-rating review is scheduled — so the city looks poised to secure or remove the building unless repairs happen.

Norell Enterprises LLC is facing an open LMPHW tobacco complaint at 1117 Bardstown Rd after a tip that patrons are allowed to smoke within one to two feet of a back exit and ventilation intake — well inside the required 15-foot smoke‑free buffer. The complaint also alleges multiple sightings of a patron smoking marijuana inside the bar while the regular opening bartender reportedly looked on.
