All Gone: 29 Maple Ave. North

The house at 29 Maple Ave. North, near Old Road was demolished today. (See earlier picture today).  In a note to WestportNow, Catherine Ann Stone of Westport, said, “The old Jaegar house is being torn down today. They raised nine kids here, it is rumored. The Jaegars once owned much of the land surrounding Long Lots School including the current community gardens. They had a flower business and apple orchards. Some of the orchard is still bearing fruit on Old Orchard Road off North Maple Ave. Trees are about 100 years old.”  It was the WestportNow Teardown of the Day on Dec. 2, 2009.
