The announcement of a nonprofit buying up six parcels in the city of Dunkirk caused a stir back in June, but since July little news has come of its grand plans and documents show it may be in default on its mortgage. In April, the United Secular American Center for the Disabled Inc. – a nonreligious, nonpolitical not-for-profit based out of New Jersey with a mission of helping individuals with disabilities, especially those who do not speak English – purchased 324-330, 332, 334-336, 338 and 609 Central Ave. and 605 Lark St. Rumors arose that the center planned to evict existing tenants of the buildings in Dunkirk's business district and bring in Section 8 housing.
