True enough, but it's not clear from the photos how far down it burned - might have been only the top floor where there are no boards, but then the trim below the mansard roof looks to have smoke residue while the window frames on the second floor appear to be clean. Makes more sense that it would have been boarded up after burning.

Just useless speculation on my part, though. Would be interesting to know the story, but not necessary. More pertinent is that the lot has been vacant for over 40 years....
