ST. LOUIS — The vacant home where a firefighter died in the line of duty is now torn down, but it took years too long according to some neighbors and politicians.
The home sat vacant for more than a decade. City records show it was owned by someone in Arkansas who was behind on their taxes. The owner also reportedly ignored city demands to take care of it and then it collapsed on a firefighter who was making sure no one was inside when it burned.
It's not uncommon for vacant homes to burn when homeless people start fires to keep warm.
St. Louis firefighter dies after roof collapse during house fire
"This is what keeps me up at night you know. What's the next house that's going to be set on fire?" said Alderman Jeffrey Boyd.
Boyd met with FOX 2's Chris Hayes near the scene of Thursday's vacant home fire. Two more vacant homes are boarded up across the street.
"That's the big challenge that a lot of people don't understand," Boyd said. "Oftentimes you have homeowners that live out of town. The city cites them for whatever citations are warranted. They don't respond. You put them in housing court. They don't show up."
City records show it was three years ago when inspectors condemned the home that burned. The City says it also issued thousands of dollars in uncollected fines to the out-of-town owners.
"These are properties, that as we've seen – they're death traps – and we've got to clean them up," said State Rep. Donna Baringer, D-St. Louis.
Baringer introduced legislation to help St. Louis leaders act quicker. She's co-sponsored HB2217 & HB2218.
"The process to actually streamline getting someone to come clean them up, keep them from getting to the point where there are trees growing out of the roof is a process that State that is set up by State Statute," she said. "Please not only should we pass it – but it also needs to have an emergency clause. It needs to happen tomorrow."
Boyd cautions, though, on how city leaders respond, saying, "We can't just tear down every vacant building. We will destroy the architectural landscape of a once vibrant community.

He points to former Arlington School that he says he was pressured to demolish.
"I resisted," Boyd said. "And today I'm proud to say that was a $34 million housing development called Arlington Grove over there on Martin Luther King and Burd that I'm so proud of. But had I listened to the naysayers, it would have never happened. We would have just town down a vibrant building."
The job is huge, with St. Louis having ten thousand vacant properties, many owned by the city itself. Boyd says he's requested a list of all of them so that he can work block by block with city leaders.
ST. LOUIS — Celebrations were held throughout the St. Louis area and across the country to honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Hundreds of vehicles lined up for the MLK "Votercade" Monday morning and drove through the streets of downtown to give people the opportunity to register to vote.

Local leaders spoke out, including St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones.
"Full equality and equity across racial lines, across zip codes, across any identity you hold will make St. Louis win again," said Jones. "Dr. King understood that message, and it's up to us to continue his legacy."
In the nation's capital, Dr. King's fight continues in election reform with legislation set to be taken up by the Senate Tuesday. When it comes to the voting legislation happening nationwide, Republicans are defending those state laws and say they'll block Democrats from passing the voting bill in the Senate.
"Today, our freedom to vote is under assault," said Vice President Kamala Harris. "In Georgia and across our nation, anti-voter laws are being passed that could make it more difficult for as many as 55 million Americans to vote."
Hundreds marched across the Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge in D.C. for the Martin Luther King Peace Walk.
"These laws are being passed with knife-like precision to cut black and brown voters out of the process, and they're exactly what the voting rights act once protected against," said civil rights activist Martin Luther King III.
President Joe Biden also urged lawmakers to put a stop to this.

"Will we stand against voter suppression? Yes or no? Will we stand against election subversion, yes or no?" said Biden."I know where I stand this time for every elected official in America to make it clear where they stand."
In East St. Louis, song and prayer at St. Luke A.M.E church inspired people to stand up together.
A visiting pastor echoed Dr. King's preaching about racial, social and economic justice.
"Dr. King's example and his enduring legacy offers proof that the contributions of a single person can help to improve one's life," said Mount Paran Baptist Church Pastor Rev. Zachary Lee.
It's a dream that continues for many.
