Obstructing View

[SNPJR]

This is a general legal question involving Massachusetts property law.

My father operates a small car lot, which is directly behind a small grocery store. The front line of his cars can be seen from the store's parking lot. The store's owner has recently placed an over-sized dumpster directly in front of my father's fence...which is now obstructing customer view to the cars.

I am aware that the store owner owns this property, but is there any remedy when his placement of said dumpster adversely affects my father's business?

as long as the ordinances of the area allow the dumpster to be placed where it is, you have no claim.

as you said, it is the store owners property. You have no view rights.

Maybe if you offered the guy some money every month he would place it elsewhere.
