An application for a permit to demolish the house at Westport’s 305 Compo Road South is in process. Built in 1961, the two-story custom colonial has 4,652 square feet and is situated on a 1.37-acre property. Because the house was built more than 50 years ago, the application will be reviewed by the Westport Historic District Commission. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com
