A Hamilton County jury Wednesday put a price tag on the second of five properties at the heart of a two-year eminent domain battle in Norwood.
Jurors said Joy and Carl Gamble's home on Atlantic Avenue is worth $280,000.
Norwood seized the property through eminent domain and is turning it over to Jeffrey R. Anderson Real Estate and the Miller-Valentine Group, which wants to build Rookwood Exchange, a multimillion-dollar complex of offices, shops, housing and restaurants.
The homes and the businesses on all 71 properties in the neighborhood would have to be demolished for the project, between Edwards Road and Interstate 71.
Resident Joe Horney is appealing a Hamilton County Common Pleas Court judge's decision that upheld Norwood's right to use eminent domain to take the five properties.
