Red X on building - how to acquire?

Question

I was walking in Jersey City today and there was this shell of a building of central ave I believe. I'd like to see if I could buy it and rehab it. How would I find out how to acquire it from the city or bank or whatever? I cannot find it listed anywhere aside from when it was last sold a few years ago.

Open to ideas and suggestions.

Try to skip trace Account Closed or use a company like Property Shark to help you find the owner if you can't find the owners using the tax records. You can also take a look at the Sherrifs Auction list to see if the property is going up for auction soon
