Neighbors are upset about what remains of 17 Ann Street in Milford, a property that was hit hard by both Hurricane Irene and Superstorm Sandy.
"I’m fairly concerned. It’s been sitting here for nearly two years now," said Milford resident Mike Stephens.
Even a fence around the partially demolished home was damaged a year ago, leaving the property open.
Now neighbors worry it’s a public safety risk.
"There are only a couple of supports holding this house, you know, from falling down in the center," said Tony Merola. "So one of the biggest concerns that I have along with the other neighbors in the town is that the house is going to fall and some kids are playing over here."
Then there's the fire danger.
"I’m only three houses up. So, you know, if we get an on-shore breeze and it gets a fire going, it’s going to move up the street," said Stephens.

Neighbors say they want the city to demolish the home, or at least make sure it’s completely fenced off.
But they say they've been passed from department to department, with few answers and the home has become more dangerous with each storm.
"The town needs to do something about it and take action before someone gets hurt or worse," said Merola.
NBC Connecticut reached out to city staff and leaders for answers on Thursday.
Those who did respond said they could not answer our questions Thursday and promised more information on Friday.
