§  355.  Title  of  action  or proceeding and parties.   Any action or  proceeding referred to in this article  shall  be  brought  against  the  premises  as  defendant.  Such premises may be described in the title of  the action or proceeding by their street number or by any  other  method  sufficiently  precise to secure identification and shall be described in  the complaint. The plaintiff, except as hereinafter provided,  shall  be  the department. In case the department shall not institute any action or  proceeding  within  ten  days after receiving a written request to do so  from any taxpayer in the city, then  such  taxpayer  may  institute  and  maintain such action or proceeding against the premises in his own name,  and  the  court  may,  in  its discretion, require from him security for  costs.
