The 421 Broome Street building where actor Heath Ledger died will go into foreclosure “any day now,” according to attorney Kent Karlson, who represents artist Junia Neiva, a minority stakeholder in the building. The building’s penthouse and the ground floor retail space are occupied, but the other three floors, including the one where Ledger’s apartment was located, are not. Neiva alleged, according to court documents, that Donald Burns, the majority stakeholder of the building, has kept it empty so he can foreclose on it. Neiva said she will appeal after the foreclosure goes through.
