The 1802 federal-style Sherwood House at 26-28 Church Lane in Westport’s center is on the move. As outlined before town boards last December, developer David Waldman has jacked up the post and beam frame and is moving it between six to eight feet closer to the street. (See WestportNow Dec. 7, 2010) Waldman, who was persuaded to save the building instead of tearing it down, envisions the building as a historic setting for a restaurant replete with gaslights, an outdoor dining area in front and lower level for a kitchen. He said 1,750 square feet on the second floor would be for office space. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com
