Another One Bites the Dust

[restoman]

I was startled to see another house in my neighborhood getting torn down today. I drove by late in the morning and saw that a demolition crew had already taken down the front of a Queen Anne style house (c. 1890) a block and a half from mine. At one time I had considered buying this place and went through it twice to assess its condition. Ultimately other houses were more appealing projects and I passed it by. It was on a small, narrow lot, and needed considerable work. Again, I had hoped that someone else would rise to the challenge, but unfortunately, no one did. :-(

Yes, and Yes, Chris!

I wish there were more people who are dedicated to preserving the architectural history of the neighborhood, and not just trying to cash in.
